An Intelligent Training Management System (ITMS)

Abstract

Air Force training units are in extreme need of advanced, intelligent training management systems to aid the training managers and schedulers in the performance of their duties and to help students quickly advance in their careers and meet the training requirements. The intelligent training management system (ITMS), to be implemented and used in Phase 2, will address tracking, evaluation, requirements identification, scheduling, and completion and certification management of individuals and teams. The ITMS will perform the functions that a person dedicated to managing the training of a small group of students would perform, but do it automatically. It will intelligently guide the students as to their training needs and opportunities and help with the development, delivery, scheduling, and evaluation of courses and other training events. The ITMS intelligently models the skills and knowledge mastered by the student and makes intelligent proactive decisions and notifications based on that model. It also provides intelligent courseware tracking, evaluation, and configuration control. After determining training requirements, it intelligently schedules the required resources. The ITMS is a general tool which can be easily customized to specific domains by end users. Several sites will use the ITMS operationally in Phase 2 to provide feedback and a basis for follow on commercialization.
