ISD was one of the first systematic training models ever developed. It was used in World War II by the US military to train soldiers in aircraft recognition. This is a synthesized high-level framework for evaluating training effectiveness.

The approach is based on the ISD process and contains six major components: training task identification, training proficiency evaluation, training task prioritization, identification of simulation training support, simulation training execution and feedback.

The methodology requires tasks be identified in advance of training. Each task is then ranked, relative to others, by the military unit undergoing training. The weights reflect the importance of each task to mission accomplishment. Precise measurable standards are best for evaluating the training proficiency of the military unit.
