New teleconference on CMI-5

Due to the overwhelming demand generated by the first CMI-5 teleconference, on Friday, March 18th at 10:00 AM (Eastern time) another teleconference will be held that introduces the details of the latest standard for courseware communication, CMI-5. The new standard incorporates advances in CMI architecture proposed from multiple organizations into one coherent standard. The goal of the new standard is to simplify and update CMI standards to reflect changes in technology and content distribution practice and to provide a user-definable set of data elements and the option to manage content sequencing by the administrative system. The teleconference is open to the public and there is no charge for joining. For details on joining the meeting, please visit http://www.aicc.org/.

AICC to host two presentations at WATS conference

The AICC will be hosting two presentations at the upcoming Worldwide Aviation Training Symposium (WATS) at the Rosen Shingle Creek resort in Orlando, FL. The first presentation, Unleashing the Power(Point), will be a panel discussion with airlines and vendors will discuss the pros and cons of using PowerPoint as an authoring tool. They will share their first hand experiences and give advice on developing presentations geared for training, for re-purposing presentations that have already been developed, for distributing PowerPoint and PowerPoint-derived content, and strategies for capturing completion results in an LMS. In the second presentation, Focus on Mobile and e-Learning for Air Carriers, Captain Herbert Schwarz, Austrian Airlines, and Chair of the Aviation Industry Computer Based Training Committee (AICC), will moderate a panel of experts discussing how to reduce cost (but not quality) for air carrier Learning Management Systems (LMS) and the role of iPads and other tablet/smartphone devices now entering the cockpit.

In addition to the presentations, the AICC will have an information booth in the exhibit hall where attendees can learn more about the mission of the organization and the benefits of membership. For more information on the conference and to register, please visit www.halldale.com.
