Joint Knowledge Development & Distribution Capability (JKDDC)
Abstract
Joint Knowledge Online (JKO) is the DoD unique and authoritative source for online joint training. JKO is tasked to develop a DoD enterprise-wide, Joint Individual Training Toolkit of web-enabled individual and small group training products, services, and enabling training technology. Products and services are developed in response to OSD (P&R) CE2T2 Program Goals & Objectives guidance, CJCS High Interest Training Issues, Joint Staff training priorities, and JKO Stakeholders (Combatant Commands, Services, and Combat Support Agencies, Interagency, and Multinational) prioritized training requirements. JKO supports a career-long joint learning continuum, joint professional military education, and tailored common training standards to Service members for tasks that are jointly executed, resulting in trained, capable, and interoperable joint forces. JKO research and development will improve all components of the Joint Content Management Architecture including: • JKO Learning Content Management System (LCMS): Development and enhancement is required to integrate advanced individual and staff training technologies and methodologies with larger scale, collective training exercises, and modernize military training capability with a DoD enterprise-wide online training toolkit. JKO LCMS is necessary to develop, host and deliver JKO courses and track/report students’ progress, completions and survey results more effectively and efficiently. JKO LCMS extends web-based, distributed access to mission-critical joint training requirements. There are currently over 2.7 million registered users of the JKO LCMS. • Small Group Scenario Trainer (SGST) desktop modeling and simulation based training: This JKO capability trains and prepares thousands of military and civilian personnel deploying to Combatant Command theaters of operation prior to serving in their assigned Combined/Joint Task Force (C/JTF) billets. Specifically, C/JTF ‘battle staffs’ will be adequately trained, as individuals and the staffs collectively, based on SGST development and implementation throughout the joint training enterprise. JKO integration of SGST simulation exercise scenarios and prerequisite JKO courses enable blended learning training support to large-scale, collective training exercises that augment the Joint Event Learning Cycle and in meeting combatant commanders exercise objectives. • JKO mobile application training device development: Development and enhancements facilitate the global distribution of web-based joint training content on portable, hand-held platforms (cell phones and tablets). JKO Mobile App extends access to training courses and learning resources to personal use of mobile phones and tablets.
