## Preface

TC 3-34.200 provides a training strategy for sections and platoons to attain task proficiency by executing tasks to standard. This enables engineers to gain proficiency in providing support to maneuver elements through reconnaissance, mobility, countermobility, and bridging tasks efficiently in any operational environment. The principal audience for TC 3-34.200 are the commanders and trainers of engineer bridge units. TC
3-34.200 is written using a plan, prepare, execute, and assess methodology. This publication applies to all engineer bridge units. TC 3-34.200 includes the planning and preparation required for a successful engineer qualification-training program for engineer bridge organizations.

Commanders, staffs, and subordinates ensure that their decisions and actions comply with applicable United States, international, and in some cases host-nation laws and regulations. Commanders at all levels ensure that their Soldiers operate in accordance with the law of war and the rules of engagement. (See FM
6-27).

## Introduction

TC 3-34.200 is designed to focus on mission-essential task (MET) proficiency. It is the Engineer Regiment's responsibility to provide commanders with the tools to qualify their engineer squads/sections and platoons, to provide quality training oversight, and to validate engineer training. The bridge crewmember qualification table (BCQT) plays an important role in this process. Commanders can use the BCQTs to determine which tasks to train, qualify, and certify based on their assessment of the unit's task proficiency and the unit's mission-essential task list (METL) or assigned MET. Time, resources, and command emphasis must all focus on training tasks that support the METL. Unit leaders should use the appropriate individual tasks, collective tasks, and drills which support their training objectives using the following references:


Standardized METL.

Combined Arms Training Strategy.

Central Army Registry.

Digital Training Management System.

Individual critical task list and individual task.
This proponent publication provides trainers and commanders with the minimal BCQT requirements and is a guide to reach published goals and sustain unit and individual proficiency. Training will replicate real world situations, conditions, and potential future operations. Evaluations must not be a routine drill that has no real world theme, but must use scenarios that exercise the leader's ability to lead and make decisions, which enables Soldiers to perform at all levels. TC 3-34.200 is divided into three chapters and one appendix:


Chapter 1 defines training frequencies, training goals, and training horizons.

Chapter 2 defines section and platoon training strategies, collective training, proficiencies,
proficiency gate ratings, talent management, and turbulence.

Chapter 3 defines the conduct of BCQTs Tables I-VI.

Appendix A refers to engineer qualification tables listed by the unit type.
This publication will be approved for Foreign Disclosure 1 (FD1) and is releasable to students from all requesting foreign countries without restrictions.

## Chapter 1 Concept

Chapter 1 is organized in a manner parallel to the combat engineer qualification tables in TC 3-34.150.  This organization provides a common-sense approach to training by echelon. Individual tasks are trained and tested first, followed by section and platoon tasks. This chapter includes introductory information about the BCQT concept. Commanders are encouraged to develop a local scenario that is tactically sound for the range layout available and that directly reflects the units' capabilities and missions. The training strategy provides the actual tables and the tasks that create a foundation for the commander's training scenario. As units select tasks, their methodology should follow.

A platoon collective task drives a section collective task that drives an individual task.

## Strategy

1-1. The BCQTs are designed to establish MET proficiency first and foremost. These qualification tables add structure to unit training plans, articulate combat readiness, and help units compete for installation ranges and resources. The tables also assist the unit by outlining a strategy for evaluating training readiness for individuals, sections, and platoons. Establishing these training and evaluation standards allows commanders to make efficient use of training resources, to articulate readiness, and most importantly, to ensure consistent battlefield results regardless of which engineer unit is in support.

1-2. Each engineer section or team must have a qualified section leader who can exercise sound judgment based on his or her ability to perform the leader or individual tasks that support the unit's METL.

## Training Frequency

1-3. Tables I through VI are designed to be conducted annually. The unit commander synchronizes the unit training plans with the unit they provide engineer support to, ensuring that engineers are trained and ready to provide engineer support. A company commander may increase the frequency based on his or her own assessment of unit proficiency and training requirements.

## Training Goals

1-4. Training goals vary according to the local training conditions. Commanders must design training to the available training environments and to specifically address unit proficiency assessments. The goal is to create a training environment that is as realistic and demanding as possible with the resources available. As a norm, the goals listed below should be set to ensure successful training.


Set and enforce tough, but achievable standards. Tough standards generate effective training; loose standards produce weak units. Soldiers must know when they have done well and when they
need additional training and repetition to achieve mastery.

Start early. All aspects of a training program must be thoroughly coordinated. Forecast and request resources and maintenance assistance long before they are needed.

Be thorough. Leave nothing to chance.

Avoid wasting resources and training opportunities. Give leaders the guidance and assets needed to train their units effectively and efficiently.

Be flexible and continually update the training program to the unit's changing needs. If
assessment and planning stop, the training program stagnates.

Train continually. Train at every opportunity, not just during an intensified period, to get ready
for qualification tables at all levels. Intensified programs should be used only to bring a unit to a
desired proficiency level; then train continually to maintain and sustain that level.
1-5. Contingency plans and alternate methods of training should be identified when the primary plan cannot be executed. Training time is valuable and should not be lost due to unforeseen factors. Units should consider planning for increased fire danger hazards, firing hour constraints, environmental factors, digging requirements, and other impacts to their plans.

## Training Horizon

1-6. The training horizon is used to synchronize dedicated training time for organizations and units to train on METL tasks. Units preparing for deployment develop training plans that focus on established readiness aim points such as manning, equipping, and training levels. The training horizon covers the period leading up to at least one readiness aim point. Command training guidance is published to provide detailed information on the unit's training objective.

1-7. Using this concept helps forecast future resources and allocates time for the unit to be successful. It is recommended that commanders and staff use in-progress reviews to ensure that each member of the unit understands which phase of training they are in and what is expected of them.

1-8. Chapter 2 provides a general breakdown of major "T-week" activities to use as a guide. It assists in the development of the unit training plan. This list is not all-inclusive. Units must consider installation requirements, directives, and guidance from higher headquarters when planning training. The T-week concept for the BCQT was designed based off the Army training models and recommended completion of the BCQT is by T-26 (beginning of the 4th quarter of the fiscal year). Reserve Component engineer bridge organizations will have to refer to the current fiscal year Reserve Component training models for when to execute the BCQT.

1-9. During the planning process for any training event, there are a series of tasks that are executed, reviewed, or updated periodically to ensure the unit's success. Unit leaders should review all tasks that will be trained during the training event. There are several critical planning steps that may involve verifying the Class V requirements and ensuring that they are forecasted well in advance and locking in training ranges and land.

EVALUATION GUIDANCE
TC 3-34.200 provides the information needed to train to standard for drills and collective tasks (task/drill numbers). Collective tasks, drill training, and evaluation outlines that are required for evaluation purposes can be found in the Central Army Repository at website https://atiam.train.army.mil.

## Chapter 2 Training Strategy

Commanders must resource qualification training which includes coordination and evaluation of engineer training. Engineer unit commanders must have the flexibility to identify particular tasks to qualify their Soldiers based on the unit's mission and future deployments. Qualification tables (QTs) are designed to focus on MET proficiency by unit type, and permit preliminary training, proficiency training, and qualification of engineer units. They are designed to develop and test the proficiency of individual, section, and platoon techniques at the basic, intermediate, and advanced levels for both Active and Reserve Components. The series of engineer tasks in each table is intended to duplicate typical battlefield tasks under realistic conditions. The tables are to be accomplished sequentially. The QTs discussed in the various training circulars, enable commanders to determine section and platoon training readiness ratings. Units must qualify career management field (CMF) 12 series Soldiers annually. The tasks to accomplish qualification have slight variances (discussed in the various training circulars for the appropriate military occupational series). All CMF 12 series Soldiers assigned to engineer units will conduct QT certification according to the company commander's unit training plan and the appropriate training circular.

## Section Training

 This chapter describes how a unit builds its unit training plan for engineer squads/sections. It provides basic information and examples to understand the mechanics of the strategy, but requires the unit to reference the appropriate training circular to apply the specific task events for their specific organization. The focus is to train and qualify Soldiers as a member of their element and build cohesive squads/sections.

## Training Tables

 Each element has six training iterations within their strategy that culminate in their demonstration of proficiency. Section training consists of all the training events along the critical path to proficiency.

## Engineer Section/Platoon

 Table 2-1, page 2-2, illustrates the section training strategy structure. As it includes collective small team and section, not all table names are standardized. They are tailored to the element's function and purpose as part of the larger section or platoon formation. Of note, the training strategy culminates with two externally evaluated proficiency assessmentsTable IV and Table VI. Both are discussed within the section portion of this chapter. All small-unit squads/sections follow the six-table event structure.

 A table of organization and equipment (TOE) or modified table of organization and equipment
(MTOE) engineer section is typically led by a staff sergeant, and typically with nine Soldiers (depending on the unit type).

 Commanders may elect to include additional subordinate teams to the section formation based on mission requirements. If small teams are added to the section formation after the section has achieved proficiency, the commander may elect to incorporate proficient small teams to the section after completing an assessment. The commander may also include the small team to the section formation for section training.

## Section Proficiency

 Overall section proficiency contains two separate externally evaluated assessments. These externally evaluated training events provide the commander with the primary assessment tool to evaluate the unit's proficiency against an established standard as defined within the respective training publication(s), task training and evaluation outlines, and the unit's standard operating procedures. Section proficiency is derived from the external evaluations from Table V and Table VI.

## Section Collective Task Proficiency

 Collective task proficiency (see table 2-2) is a gate used to assess the overall proficiency of a section through external evaluation of their execution of all the section's supporting collective tasks. This gate is not used to progress to higher echelon training, but indicates if the unit has the proficiency required to support higher headquarters during tactical operations effectively.

 When Soldiers assigned are not present for the evaluation, the evaluation commander must authorize their participation in future events.

## Section Proficiency Ratings

 The proficiency rating metrics (see table 2-3) that may be certified by the evaluation commander are identified within the respective training publications. Generally, commanders certify the following proficiency rating metrics based on the section's performance during the collective task proficiency gate.

Lowest Task
Assessment
Task Proficiency Rating
Remarks
Trained (T)
90%
Trained minus (T-)
80% and <90%
Squads/sections must meet the training and evaluation outline criteria.
Partially minus (P)
70% and <80%
Partially (P-)
60% and <70%
Untrained (U)
<60%

## Section Validation

 Validation is a commander's option to execute the Army standard proficiency assessment to the minimum threshold requirements to achieve a passing result. Where validation events are authorized, the threshold requirements are defined in the section's training publication.

 The validation event is used in extreme circumstances where the commander requires confirmation of proficiency or certification. These circumstances may arise in garrison and operational environments.

## Garrison Requirement

 The brigade commander may authorize the validation event when one of the following conditions exist:


The unit is directed to deploy within 90 days without prior notice.

The installation range restrictions prohibit standard qualification due to range closures,
ammunition restrictions, or unforeseen circumstances beyond the control of the unit.
Note. Failing to request or secure appropriate training facilities, ammunition, or other resources does not justify the use of any validation procedure at the home station.

## Operational Requirement

 The battalion commander may authorize subordinate units to exercise the validation event when deployed to austere environments when one of the following conditions exist:


Available range facilities do not support the standard Army proficiency assessment requirements.

Local range regulations prohibit firing the ammunition type, standard engagement techniques, or do not support the surface danger area.

The training area available does not meet the most stringent range safety regulations of the Army or host nation, where the composite surface danger zone cannot be sufficiently maintained and secured.
 The validation event is described in the respective training publication in detail, with various options to enable the best training in less than ideal circumstances. Commanders will ultimately assume additional risk by utilizing the validation event as part of their sustainment training program while deployed.

 The following rules apply to validation events:


The brigade or equivalent commander authorizes the use of the validation event.

May only be executed 90 days after the mission start through 30 days before mission completion.

Successful completion of the validation event extends the existing qualification duration (proficiency assessment) by six months.

Only one validation is authorized within a 24-month period for any type of section.

Failure to successfully complete a validation event after two attempts condemns the small unit's proficiency assessment immediately.

Failure to validate requires the small unit to complete the full training strategy to regain their proficiency rating.

External evaluation criteria are stated within the respective training publication. These
requirements will prescribe procedures when standard external evaluator requirements cannot be achieved due to mission constraints sustaining section proficiency.
 Once the element has successfully completed its section collective task proficiency, the unit must consider how the criteria impacts their subordinate's proficiency. The following paragraphs describes how squads/sections maintain their proficiency, how to identify when a proficiency rating has triggered one or more criteria, and any options the commander has to mitigate those impacts.

 The element training publication will describe in greater detail the methods to sustain proficiency. The information below is in general terms and provides an example of when an element sustains their proficiency, and an example when the proficiency is condemned.

## Section Proficiency Requirements

 Once the element achieves section proficiency, the element loses its proficiency rating if one or more of the following triggers exist:


Time. Twelve months have elapsed since the date the section collective task proficiency gate was
achieved.

Key leader turnover. Minimum identified key leaders at echelon are no longer assigned to the
positions within the small unit.

Commander assessment. Any commander within the chain of command determines the
subordinate unit's proficiency is no longer at a trained (T) or trained minus (T-) level.

Subordinate element proficiency. When the unit fails to maintain the minimum required proficient subordinate elements (one level down).
 Units may not alter, change, or modify the criteria. Evaluation commanders have the option, based on their assessment of the element, to condemn any proficiency rating they are authorized to assign.

Note. For section proficiency, the commander two-levels higher is typically the company commander. The battalion or brigade commander can condemn any proficiency assessment or qualification for any small team or section within their organization.

## Section Talent Management

 Commanders can mitigate the impacts to their unit's proficiency in a variety of methods. Talent management skills before, during, and after conducting the section training strategy is required by leaders to ensure that maximum proficiency is maintained and sustained within the larger organization. Section proficiency has a direct impact on the unit's overall readiness, and contributes to the unit's level of proficiency.

 To best manage section turbulence, the commander should consider the following:


Select key leaders together. This maximizes the key leader's longevity and keeps future
proficiency ratings more stable.

Position by potential. Identify those young leaders that have solid promotion potential. Place
those leaders in the next higher position (for example, a team leader as a section leader), and have them achieve proficiency in advance of their pending or expected promotion.

Transfer trained key leaders together. Promotions may initiate internal battalion transfers.
Commanders should consider moving the newly promoted key leader and key leader combination
together, where the gaining unit within the battalion will benefit from maintaining proficient key leaders. This may not be possible or feasible for all units, particularly for section formations.

## Section Training

 Commanders should cross-train potential replacements. Cross training young leaders in key leader positions helps to prepare them to in the event a key leader leaves. In doing so, commanders can mitigate key leader turnover with trained and proficient leaders in stride with key leader turbulence.

 Proficient new arrivals should be assessed. Commanders that receive new leaders who achieved proficiency within the last qualification period have assessment options to maintain section proficiency.

Commanders can assess two previously qualified key leaders from different elements to determine their proficiency status if they are assigned together in an element. This is the least preferred method of talent management and requires the commander to make assessments using previous crew records, sustainment training in simulations, and other assessments to determine their proficiency status.

## Section Turbulence

 The commander may consider a turbulent section proficient when the section leader and the minimum required subordinate leaders have previously achieved proficiency in their assigned position in a different organization during the previous qualification period.

 The section has demonstrated proficiency during a section training exercise or similar training event outside the section training density.

 If commanders are not completely confident in the section cohesion, capability, experience, and performance, they must rate them as unqualified or not proficient through the next training density.

## Section Proficiency Requirements

 Units manage sections by section leaders (key leader) and proficient subordinate team leaders
(subordinate leader) to maintain and sustain the greatest amount of experience within their formation. The management of these two components provide the unit with a metric to assist in determining the overall unit proficiency. Refer to table 2-4, page 2-6, for section proficiency and reporting requirements.

 Talent management within the section structure requires the commander to balance experience and demonstrated proficiencies of the team leaders and the section leader to sustain proficiency throughout the fiscal year. Commanders will utilize various proficiency assessment tools to manage risks during key leader and subordinate leader movements or assignment changes.

 Criteria Rule Number 2, *Key Leader Turn Over,* is triggered when the section leader is no longer assigned to the section. Once the section leader departs, assigning the A-Team leader as the section leader is a sound decision to keep cohesion of the unit intact. Although this decision best maintains the section's proficiency, it triggers Criteria Rule Number 4, *Subordinate Element Proficiency*. See figure 2-1.
Note. For example, key leader promotions occur where the section leader is promoted to sergeant first class and is reassigned to another platoon. A subordinate section leader (A Team) is promoted to staff sergeant and is assigned as the new section leader. Although the section leader was a team leader during section training and completion of the collective task proficiency and live-fire proficiency gate, the section meets two separate criteria. In doing so, the section loses its proficiency rating (see figure 2-2).

 The commander has available options to build the section's proficiency rapidly. For example, the commander may train and certify a team with a new A-Team leader. Once complete, the commander can conduct off-cycle training through collective task proficiency and the live-fire proficiency gate for the section.

Note. Using the same example, the commander may execute his or her talent management options if a newly arrived staff sergeant who achieved section proficiency during his or her last assignment, within the gaining unit's qualification period.

In the continuation of the example in figure 2-3, page 2-8, the commander assesses the staff sergeant's previous performance and evaluations, and assigns the staff sergeant to the section leader position. The commander continues assessing with a Leaders Table I, and a section training exercise event, day and night. Once complete, the commander assumes limited risk and continues to carry the section as proficient through the next training density.

## Chapter 3 Construction Qualification Tables

The design of these tables are intended to facilitate training progression utilizing the crawl, walk, and run methodology to build unit readiness in support of MET proficiency.

## Conduct Of Table ILeader Certification

3-1. All leaders in the bridge platoon certify on military occupational specialty (MOS) leader tasks within
90 days of assignment. All leaders will recertify annually. Leaders are certified in MOS tasks by demonstrating their ability to perform basic calculations and display general knowledge of proponent identified critical tasks. Periodically throughout the year new leaders will arrive and the commander must ensure that these noncommissioned officers are certified. Companies determine which tasks to train and certify based on their training assessment and MET proficiency. This training should be conducted using Class V and training aids. At a minimum, leaders will certify on the following as shown in table 3-1 and table
3-2, page 3-2.

## Section, Conduct Of Table IiIndividual Military Occupational Skills Certification

3-2. Table II is individual MOS training. This involves the section leaders training their Soldiers during sergeants time training. The section leader teaches the Soldiers to use the basic skills required of Skill Level
10 engineer Soldiers to execute missions in a theater of operations. This training should be conducted using Class V. Section leaders conduct individual training of their sections. This is a hands-on, performanceoriented table that requires the Soldier to demonstrate proficiency in their MOS. All leaders in the platoon are responsible for ensuring that they and their subordinate leaders are qualified in Table II before executing Table III or IV tasks. The platoon certifies section members on bridge crewmember focused tasks. Refer to table 3-3 page 3-5 and table 3-4, page 3-6.

## Section, Conduct Of Table VSection Certification

3-7. Table V is perform bridge operations section/platoon level certification focused at the section level training, but scalable to platoon level training depending on the mission. The bridge section/platoon conducts bridge operations. The commander can conduct multiechelon training to employ both the bridge sections and the support platoon. This involves the platoon sergeants and section leaders training their Soldiers during sergeants time training and STX. The section leader teaches the Soldiers the identified basic bridge tasks. The commander plans for any additional resource requirements according to the training scenario. Refer to table 3-9, page 3-10, and table 3-10, page 3-11.

## Conduct Of Table ViPlatoon Certification Tasks

3-8.  Table VI is a platoon level certification perform bridge operations. This is integrated into the culminating training event for the bridge company. The intent is that the bridge company conducts a bridging focused field training exercise (FTX). Tables I through V must have been completed prior to this table. The platoons must be proficient in performing the collective tasks that support their company METL.  Ultimately, the unit must be proficient at performing their METs and supporting collective tasks (SCTs) in support to maneuver elements.  Engineer commanders should work closely with their supported elements to design scenarios that will ensure that they exercise their engineer units. The commander plans for resources according to the designed training scenario. Refer to table 3-11 and table 3-12, page 3-12.

## Section Ii - Terms Squad Proficiency

Overall section proficiency contains two separate externally evaluated assessments. These externally evaluated training events provide the commander the primary assessment tool to evaluate the unit's proficiency against an established standard as defined within the respective training publication(s), task training and evaluation outlines, and the unit's standard operating procedures. Section proficiency is derived from the external evaluations from Table V, *Situational Training Exercise (Live)* (the section's collective task proficiency assessment), and Table VI, *Field Training Exercis*e, platoon qualification table.

## Squad Training

Cross train potential replacements. Cross training young leaders in key leader positions helps to prepare them to in the event a key leader leaves. In doing so, commanders can mitigate key leader turnover with trained and proficient leaders in stride with key leader turbulence.
