Introduction

Make plans now to join over 300 other learning, education/training professionals from DoD, government, industry, and academia for the 10th Annual ADL ImplementationFest from 10-12 August 2010 at the Rosen Centre Hotel in Orlando, Florida.

ImplementationFest is the premier event for the DoD training community hosted by the OSD Advanced Distributed Learning Initiative.  It provides an opportunity to a unique gathering of military, government, industry, and academic learning/education/training professionals to share lessons learned.  The conference focuses on a range of topics including effective use of distributed learning technologies for DoD training, training standards and specifications, innovative learning capabilities, and other ADL topics. 

Attendees should include senior military training professionals, training community leaders, content developers, and technical experts.

The Advanced Distributed Learning Initiative was established in 1997 to standardize and modernize the delivery of training and education across DoD and other federal agencies.  It is a collaborative effort to harness the power of information technologies to deliver high-quality, easily accessible, adaptable, and cost-effective education and training.  More information on ADL can be found at http://www.adlnet.gov
