Aviation Industry CBT Committee
The Aviation Industry CBT Committee (AICC) was founded by a collection of
aviation companies with the mission to create standards for student record and
courseware content portability.
Student record keeping for e-learning involves
the log in and authentication of a user and the subsequent recording of data
items such as performance information, time in course, path navigated through
course, selections made on assessments etc.
The AICC standard also defines a
granular module approach that can be threaded together to meet a specific
students needs. Also the AICC is breaking ground in defining standards for
communication with simulation models and simulator devices.
The application that
provides these capabilities and administration over the configuration and
reporting is known as a Learning Management System (LMS).
The AICC efforts have
contributed to the federal government in their Advanced Distributed Learning
(ADL) initiatives which focused on reusable learning objects. The objects have
evolved into the Shareable Courseware Object Reference Model (SCORM) standard.
With this mandated standard the military units (Navy, Air Force, Army, or
Marines) can reference the requirement on vendors and resulting objects may be
shared across organizations. This is valuable when applied to the
corporate marketplace.
inXsol adapts standards like the AICC to develop Content Management System (CMS)
platforms which manage personell concurrency to policies and procedures.
Other entities in the standards arena are:
IMS
(Instructional Management System) Global Learning Consortium
IEEE Learning
Technology Standards Committee (LTSC)
PROmoting Multimedia Access to Education
and Training in EUropean Society(PROMETEUS)
inXsol is a long term participant in
the AICC. inXsol's president, Henry Ryng, has been involved in training systems
and student records management throughout his career. inXsol's COGNIV Learning
Management System (LMS) underwent a recent next generation technology update and
now embodies necessary LMS data keeping functions along with corporate training
organization best practices, the features of today's best e-commerce storefronts
and the features of a Customer Relationship Management (CRM) based web portal.
