INNOVATIONS IN HUMAN SYSTEMS INTEGRATION TRAINING AND EDUCATION OF FUTURE PRACTITIONERS Lawrence G. Shattuck One mark of a healthy discipline or profession is the dynamic interplay between practitioners and the training and educational institutions that prepare the practitioners. An example of this interplay is when students and faculty engage in innovative research that pushes the boundaries of a discipline and practitioners can use the results of the research. Similarly, the innovations of the practitioners are passed back to the training and educational institutions where they are incorporated into the coursework. ; Human Systems Integration principles and methods can be used to help integrate people, technology, and organizations in an effective and efficient manner. Over the past decade, a wide range of tools, techniques, and technologies have been developed by federal agencies to achieve significant cost and performance benefits. In this discussion, we will explore trends in military human systems integration and learn about the critical role being played by human performance and effectiveness research. We will also examine case studies on the planning and design of future human space flight vehicles, the national air space system and the first nuclear reactors to be built in the United States in over 30 years. And with an eye toward sustaining the discipline's principles and methods, we'll take a look at educating and training the next generation of human systems integration practitioners.
