Training Transition

Apart from the operational transition, training transition is also important and it appears that side by side with greater incorporation of Afghan instructors this is also taking place slowly and gradually. Ultimately by 2014 or some time later, Afghan training institutions would have to depend on their own instructors and not just for COIN but also to develop conventional capabilities though in the near to medium term it would remain COIN focused. Similarly a pool of instructors to train the police and para military may also be required in the future. While training assistance can possibly go even beyond 2014, building Afghan capacities would remain an important component of the overall paradigm.
