Focus of Presentation • AIM Background & History • AIM & Navy Content Development Standards • AIM Software Status
Authoring Instructional Materials (AIM): • Government-owned & managed system used by the Navy to design, develop, update, manage, and integrate training content • Provides automated conformance to standards (NAVEDTRA 130B/131B, NAVEDTRA 136/ILE) resulting in efficient, cost-effective development & maintenance of learning content • Links learning requirements to work definition based on NETC Job Duty Task Analysis (JDTA) standard per NAVEDTRA 137 • Links learning content to Interactive Electronic Tech Manuals (IETMs) (S1000D & other formats) • Automates identification and notification of potential learning content update requirements based on performance standard & tech datachanges- “Concurrency Management” • Streamlines integration of changes into previous learning content baseline with minimum impact (because built on relational database) • Supports multiple output methods (paper, PDF, HTML, & SCORM conformant XML formats) AIM is a mature application & service provider supporting the development & sustainment of 250,000+ instructional hours of formal Navy training content
Prototype LO Module; NMCI certification Navy ILE ILT authoring/maintenance tool Prototype Content Planning Module (CPM) NMCI Certification & Distribution of AIM LO Module CPM Operational Major CPM/LO Module updates including JDTA & OCCSTD support Enterprise hosting of AIM I/II Central Sites and CPM Prototype of Web-based LO Module AIM Historical Perspective 1981 Present 1981-86 1987-97 1998-2005 2006-11 • CNET drafts Operational Requirement (OR) • NPRDC Conducts R&D • NPRDC Awards R&D Contract • CNO Establish Project Manager • AIM MNS/Milestone 0 Approved • Milestone I/II approved • Initial version of AIM (UNIX) distributed • Milestone III approved (Implementation) • AIM System Support Office (SSO) at NAWCTSD Established • AIM II Implementation • AIM I Implementation • Program Management Shift to NAWCTSD • IETM Interface • SCORM Output Utility • SQL Server • Word as editor; IMI Library • AIM first GOTS SCORM Adopter Program of Record with history of continuous improvement and successful adaptability in meeting the user’s changing requirements and technology advances

AIM & Navy Training Standards • AIM follows ISD rules of the PADDIE model • AIM Toolset continues to support traditional NAVEDTRA 130B/131B policy & requirements • AIM Team working closely with NETC N74 to support new policy changes: • Reusable Learning Object content development rules per NAVEDTRA 136 Standard • New JDTA methodology (NAVEDTRA 137) for defining work as the basis for training requirements and learning content structure • AIM outputs: • Printable Material (PDF) • SCORM-compliant XML Files, electronic classrooms, repositories) • CeTARS CMS Web service files • Database export for use in other AIM systems or content authoring tools
NETC Policy and Supporting Tools * Fully supports ILT objects and supports self-paced objects w/ other authoring tools.
AIM in NETC N6/N7 ‘To Be’ Enterprise TrainingManagement Framework AIM
Notional AIM-to-ROCCE Interface Detail Note: this data interface already operational with LSI Venus.net and GDIT Webtrain CBT tools
MT Continuum Prototype Project • Strategic Systems Programs (SSP) re-engineering 30+ week training pipeline for TRIDENT Ballistic Submarine (SSBN) Missile Techs (MTs) into blended just-enough/just-in-time ILE-conformant Instructor Led (ILT) and self-paced segments • AIM CPM and LO Module toolsets part of SSP’s baseline business process for this re-engineering • First major end-to-end design, development, and maintenance project that’s validating and extending CPM/LO Module business rules and data exchange mechanisms • MT Continuum team: • SSP / contractors - Requirements Owners – blended learning design/ILT development • NAWCTSD / AIM team - CPM/LO Module support • LSI, Inc. - ISD and self-paced content design/development
AIM I/II Rel 6.0 – May 2012 • Course Master Schedule re-engineering • Atlas Pro LMS interface • Portion marking • Modification TPP in AIM II • Other AIM Change Requests (ACRs)
CPM/LO Module Rel 6.0 – Sep 2012 • Center-based data element filtering • Copy nested DPs/RIAs from traditional AIM I/II • CTTL output from CPM • Import CTTL items/other JTA data as basis for new JDTA • CPM ‘gatekeeper’ functions • Assessment Engine interface • ROCCE interface • Linking to ‘existing interventions’ tab
Web-based LO Module – Apr 2013 • Integrated into CPM • Gradual phasing out of desktop client LO Module integrated into AIM I/II Central Site instances
AIM Summary • History of AIM • Consistent success in past, updated over time, now extending to blended learning • Leveraging historical ROI and TOC reduction • One GOTS toolset supporting: • Traditional content development/maintenance • NAVEDTRA 130B/131B • Migration of traditional to new content standards • NAVEDTRA 136/137 • New development/support of blended learning • ILT & self-paced
AIM Summary(contd) Fills gaps in current Navy Training Environment: ILT toolset supporting emerging NAVEDTRA 136 standard JDTA links to learning content Future linkage between JDTA & Navy OCCSTDs Integrated JDTA-based design, development, and maintenance of both ILT and self-paced learning content Automated surveillance capability to drive down significant total ownership cost of learning content AIM toolset is filling those gaps as demonstrated by MT Continuum prototype project and NETC ETMF
