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 program goals, CJCS high interest training issues, Joint Staff training priorities, and JKO stakeholders (Combatant Commands, Services, Combat Support Agencies, Interagency, and multinational partners) prioritized training requirements. JKO supports a career-long joint learning continuum, joint professional military education, and tailored common training standards to Service members on tasks that are jointly executed. JKO research and development will improve all components of the Joint Content Management Architecture (JCMA) including: 1. 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. There are currently over 3.6 million registered users of the JKO LCMS. 2. 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. JKO integration of SGST simulation exercise scenarios and prerequisite JKO courses significantly enhance blended learning training support to large-scale, collective training exercises. 3. JKO mobile application training development: Development and enhancements will significantly increase availability and access of web-based joint training content on portable, hand-held platforms (e.g. cell phones and tablets).
