Focus of PresentationFocus of Presentation• AIM Background & History• AIM & Navy Content Development Standards• AIM Software Status

Authoring Instructional Materials (AIM)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 NETC INST 1510.4• 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 data changes- “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 400,000+ instructional hours of formal Navy training content

AIM & Navy Training StandardsAIM & Navy Training Standards• AIM follows ISD rules of the PADDIE model • AIM Toolset continues to support traditional NAVEDTRA

130/131 policy & requirements• AIM Team working closely with NETC N74 to support new policy

changes:– Skills-Based/Reusable Object content rules per NAVEDTRA 136 Standard– New JDTA methodology (NETCINST 1510.4) for defining work as the basis

for training requirements and learning content structure• AIM outputs:

– Printable Material (PDF)– SCORM-compliant XML Files (LMS, electronic classrooms, repositories)– CeTARS CMS Web service files– Database export for use in other AIM systems or content authoring tools

MT Continuum Prototype ProjectMT 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 SummaryAIM 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 130/131

– Migration of traditional to new content standards • NAVEDTRA 136

– New development/support of blended learning • ILT & self-paced

AIM SummaryAIM Summary(contd)(contd)

• Gaps in current Navy Training Environment:– ILT toolset supporting emerging NAVEDTRA 136 standard– JDTA links to learning content– Linkage between JDTA & Navy OCCSTDs– Integrated, skills-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
