From 26 to 28 April 2016, the JALLC hosted and supported the Annual meeting of the Graduated Readiness Forces (Land) (GRF(L)) HQ Lessons Learned Working Group (GRFL3WG). During the GRFL3WG meeting, which was conducted and Chaired by HQ Allied Land Command (LANDCOM), based in Izmir, Turkey, Lessons Learned subject matter experts (SME) from several of the represented NATO Commands and Centres had the opportunity to share their knowledge, experience, and expertise on learning from exercises and training events.

The members of the GRF(L) Lessons Learned Community of Interest paid special attention to the discussion surrounding their JTF HQ role and how they are capable of commanding joint operations of differing scales by providing deployable joint command and control capabilities alongside the capabilities within the NATO Command Structure.

The workshop brought together representatives from HQ Joint Force Command (JFC) Brunssum and HQ JFC Naples, the Joint Force Training Centre, the Joint Warfare Centre, and the JALLC, as well as representatives from LANDCOM and HQ Allied Air Command. The NATO Force Structure HQs were represented by NATO Deployable Corps (NRDC) Headquarters Greece, NRDC Italy, Headquarters Multinational Corps Northeast, NRDC Spain, and the Allied Rapid Reaction Corps.

The GRFL3WG meeting provided an excellent opportunity for the JALLC representatives to introduce the NATO Lessons Learned Portal and NATO Exercise Training, Reporting and Analysis (EXTRA) Portal , as well as to present the main findings from the JALLC's Analysis Report on Trident Jaguar 2015. The JALLC's representatives also took the opportunity to introduce the Theme of this year’s NATO Lessons Learned Conference , and encouraged discussions about how to improve the effectiveness of the NATO Lessons Learned Staff Officers Course.
