  2. Outline • Who we are • Introduction • Societal Problem • Case Study • Our Solution • Functional Component Diagram • Train Milestones • Interface Milestones • Site Maps • Web Mockups • Database Milestones • Database Schemas & Flowcharts • Algorithm Milestones • Search Algorithm • Course Creation Algorithm • Feedback Algorithm • Competition • Risk Analysis • Conclusion

  3. Introduction Education vs. Training

  4. Education- "The act or process of imparting or acquiring general knowledge, developing the powers of reasoning and judgment, and generally of preparing oneself“ Training- "To teach so as to make fit, qualified, or proficient“ http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/education http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/train Introduction:Education vs. Training

  5. Education vs. Training: • Education emphasizes principles first and focuses on building the mind. • Training emphasizes application and the building of skills Training: • Required for every job • Typically not offered in higher education • Lack of training results in lost productivity

  6. Education vs. Training: College

  7. Education vs. Training: Career

  8. There is difficulty in developing quality training, delivering it efficiently and implementing reliable feedback mechanisms. Societal Problem

  9. Ph.D. from Old Dominion University Major: Engineering Management M.S. from Massachusetts Institute of Technology Majors: Materials Engineering Naval Architecture Marine Engineering B.S. from Rutgers University Major: Ceramic Engineering Case Study: Dr. Kevin Adams

  10. Case Study: NCSOSE National Centers for Systems of Systems Engineering Mission: “Develop and disseminate theory, methodologies, and technologies to effectively respond to system of systems problems.

  11. What is a system of systems? A system is an interrelated group of components with a common goal (system of systems = a group of systems) DMV NCIC DHS

  12. Case Study: Process Flow

  13. Case Study: Current Method Request: Building a system of rings NCSOSE researches & determines learning objectives Lord Customer “One Customer To Rule Them All” Each topic is combined into a course notebook and printed for delivery to the client Topics are hand picked from Access database or created if not in existence

  14. Case Study: Current Method Single Point of Failure • Entire system is run by Dr. Adams, would take a long to teach new employee system Time Consuming • Determining learning objectives to meet customer request • Selecting/Creating topics that cover learning objectives • Data is not easily searchable • Analyzing feedback from clients and students

  15. Our Solution: TRAIN • Eliminates Dr. Adams as the single point of failure • Identifies and stores relationships between learning objectives and assists in topic selection/creation • Organize and present optimal courses based on customer request • Powerful search based on keyword with built in ranking system • Intelligently analyzes feedback to suggest improvements for future courses

  16. Our Solution: TRAIN CAN NOT: • Teach the materials for you • Read the customers mind • Replace a trainer CAN: • Eliminate the single point of failure • Provide ranking for training elements • Give an appropriate list of relevant and related topics • Suggest improvements for current and future courses

  17. Our Solution: TRAIN

  18. Our Solution: The Benefits • TRAIN eliminates the single point of failure • It saves timeand consistently produces high quality courses • Improves ROI for clients • Provides feedback and improvement suggestions

  36. Search Algorithm

  37. Course Creation Algorithm

  38. Feedback Algorithm

  39. Competition

  40. Risk Matrix Customer Risks C1 - Ease of Use C2 - Accessibility C3 - Extensibility C4 - Feedback Technical Risks T1 - Security T2 - Compatibility

  41. Customer Risk

  42. Customer Risk

  43. Technical Risk

  44. Conclusion • TRAIN eliminates the single point of failure • Consistently produces high quality training, but it cannot replace any trainer • TRAIN saves time, delivers training efficiently and provides and implements reliable feedback
