MIL-STD-810H Online Training
July 29 @ 8:00 am – July 31 @ 1:00 pm

Two and a half days of
focused, Online or On-Site Training
on MIL-STD-810H with Emphasis on “Tailoring”
Training on MIL-STD-810H Environmental Testing with Tailoring Examples
This training is important for testing and certifying your military equipment and products following MIL-STD-810H, platform test requirements, and other applicable standards and specifications. The training focuses on the test sections described in the standard document:
MIL-STD-810H
US Department of Defense Test Method Standard
Environmental Engineering Considerations and Laboratory Tests
The instructors share their experience and knowledge gained by working long years designing products and performing tests, i.e., MIL-STD-810H, RTCA-DO-160G, and MIL-STD-461G. The slides are supported by graphics and test videos for the efficiency and clarity of the information, and each session is planned to follow the test methods described in MIL-STD-810H. Dr. Ismail Cicek is the lead instructor of this training, and several experienced test personnel and design engineers help complete the training sessions efficiently. The following link describes Dr. Cicek’s experiences on the topic in more detail:
Purpose of the Training
The purpose is to have a good understanding of equipment testing by the MIL-STD-810H document. The attendees completing this training are expected to know the following:
- Understand MIL-STD-810H test methods and procedures
- Understand how to apply tailoring given Life Cycle Environmental and Mission Profiles
- Be able to write a list of susceptibilities
- Understand the test process goals and activities
- Develop test plans and schedule tests
- Execute tests
- Understand test results
- Create test reports
- Be able to resolve test results by applying change recommendations or accepting anomalies with risk assessment.
Training Scope
The training sessions cover the following topics with annotated slides, test photos, videos, and additional reference material from standards, specifications, and guides:
- Systems Engineering Process Overview and Test & Evaluation (T&E): Important Concepts, such as Product Development and V&V Processes, Test Requirements, Requirements Management, Concepts of Operations (CONOPS) Environmental Profile (LCEP), and Mission Profile/Requirements.
- Tailoring Process
- MIL-STD-810H Part I, II, and III
- Understanding the Purpose of the Test Methods
- Test Methods and Procedure Selection based on Equipment Type
- Developing a List of Susceptibilities
- Test Equipment, Chambers, and other Devices
- Test Procedures and Other Technical Details of Running Tests with Tailoring
- Scheduling and implementation of the Tests
- Review of Test Reports
- Design Issues, Discussion of Test Failures, Test Interruptions, and Recommendations
- Risk Management Process for Resolving Anomalies
- Additional or Alternative Standards (Military and Industrial) and Test Recommendations

Instructors
Dr. Ismail Cicek mainly provides training, assisted by several GDS personnel experienced in environmental testing and management.
Dr Ismail Cicek provides training with over 20 years of experience in the environmental qualification testing of products such as MIL-STD-810H and RTCA-DO-160G. Dr Cicek led various engineering programs and projects and managed the US Air Force test projects for many years. Dr Cicek worked as the lab chief engineer for five years at the US Air Force Aeromedical Test Lab at WPAFB, OH. Training is also assisted by our personnel, who are experienced in designing and environmental testing military and aerospace equipment.
