Event Date: April 17, 2019
Capability Submission Deadline: April 1, 2019

On April 17, MGMWERX, in collaboration with the U.S. Air Force’s Air University, will host a technology showcase designed to familiarize government stakeholders with technology and tools with the capability to aid in educational simulation of the functions within an Air Operations Center, or other control center.

Training environment criteria:

  • Adaptable – i.e., to non-standardized equipment and connectivity

  • Intuitive – i.e., easy to use and administer
  • Interactive – i.e., environment must be able to work for 1 to 100 trainees
  • Measurable – i.e., allow instructors to limit and track users

Why Should You Participate?
