TBTD: Team

The Advanced Distributed Learning Job Performance Technology Center (ADL JPTC) was originally established by the US Department of Defense (DoD) in 2000. The Training Transformation Initiative further defined and supported the user of job performance technologies in the DoD. The Office of the Secretary of Defense, Personnel and Readiness (SOD P&R), working through the ADL Initiative, established the JPTC at the Alexandria ADL Co-Laboratory (Alexandria ADL Co-Lab).

The JPTC's mission is to advance research and development in, and the implementation of, job performance technologies across the DoD and federal government, guided by the work of the ADL Initiative and in support of the T2 Initiative. The JPTC will promote research into the return on investment (ROI) of job performance technologies, serves as an "honest broker" for federal goverment and DoD requirements gathering, and acts as a collaborative point and working lab in researching and initiating demonstrations of job performance tools, content, and subject matter expertise dealing with human performance throughout the DoD.

Production

Intelligent Automation, a woman owned small business, with the support of its partners, Learning Systems Architecture Laboratory (LSAL), O'Neil, Delta 3D, and Dynamics Research Corporation (DRC) is pleased to offer its services in SCORM and S1000D Testbed development to the ADL Co-Laboratory and the Job Performance Technology Center (JPTC). We have assembled a team that brings depth of experience in all the relevant areas to the effort, and we count among our partners and advisors individuals who have been instrumental in the design, development, and real-world use of SCORM, S1000D, and other relevant technologies and standards.
