JKDDC is an OSD sponsored Training Transformation initiative designed to improve the way we train and prepare individuals for joint staff deployment and integrated operations.
The JKO enterprise portal system provides access to a learning management system (LMS) of joint, multinational and interagency courseware and web-based learning tools and services via three networks: Internet ( military unclassified (NIPRnet and classified networks (SIPRnet
The JKDDC portal offers access to “one stop shopping” for joint context and content. Single sign on capability means users login to JKO using CAC and have access to all sites and applications with a single account without having to create multiple user names and passwords.
All three portal channels provide access to the JKDDC learning management system that tracks, documents and reports student progress. Course status and completions are recorded in the LMS so that students can track progress. The JKO LMS also allows training officers to track student progress and completions.
Each instantiation of the LMS is customized to the particular network: The LMS on NIPRnet provides access to all JKDDC courseware with the exception of classified material. The LMS on SIPRnet provides all courseware found on NIPRnet with the addition of classified courses and material. The LMS via Internet Public access provides access to non-FOUO courses that are relevant to joint/integrated operations.
Joint courseware across Services, Combatant Commands and Combat Support Agencies is captured and sorted by UJTL, providing cross-referenced knowledge sources and allowing individuals to find training based on specific task needs.
JKO JMO works with stakeholders to convert and conform classroom training to latest advanced distributed learning (ADL) standards, conform online training to latest ADL standards and integrate compliant curriculum with the JKO LMS.
Customized Communities of Interest (COI) have proven a popular portal feature. COIs provide a forum for practitioners of a particular discipline to interact and share knowledge and experiences pertinent to their task areas. A customized community page allows members to update each other on developments in the shared discipline.
The capability rolled out April 30, 2007 and our baseline metrics reflect impressive early adoption and continuing growth.
