Abstract
This study examined the gap and inadequacy of current military foreign area training programs and their focus on overarching topics irrelevant to interpersonal skills development unique to individual cultures. A qualitative intrinsic explanatory single case study with subunits research called for interviews with Unit Deployment Program Mangers to describe the current deployment cross-cultural education program that prepares service members for interpersonal interactions while serving abroad. Inductive Reasoning was used to determine data patterns from the information gained from interviews for coding and analysis purposes resulting in the development of themes for pattern discerning and explanatory inference for theoretical application.
