A Collaborative Effort between Federal
Agencies, Private Industry, and Non-Profits
• Current:– DOE EERE – 3D training & system architecture
• OWIP / EERE - Weatherization training
• ITP / EERE – Industrial steam training
• BTP / EERE – Qualified assessor training
• VTP / EERE – Clean Cities University
• Human Capital – beta testing & evaluating course delivery for staff training
– DOD – 3D Repository, SCORM, open source course materials– Education – Learning Registry technology– DOL – Career Assessment tool & Healthcare training
• Near Future– DOJ – greening of corrections & user testing– FDA – internal & state training– GSA – Federal building personnel training – NASA, Smithsonian, EPA, NOAA – content delivery
• NGOs (Commercial & Non-profit)– LBNL, WGBH/National Center for Accessible Media, National Institute of Building
Sciences, American Association of Community Colleges, Weatherization Network, BMI, Inc., Prison Industry Association, JHT, SRI International, XPAND

NWTP Technical Overview
• Stable and mature Ilias technology for LCMS– Robust Service Oriented Architecture (SOA)– SCORM compliant authoring and playback– Large open source community– No cost for adding seats
• Google’s O3D for in-browser technology– WebGL compatible – Low system requirements
• Jasper reporting engine for ad hoc querying
• KUDA JavaScript libraries and GUI world creator for building simulations
eere.energy.gov
User Focused Features
• Users [students] can– Join and access courses
• Access glossaries
– Search course material– Learn by:
• Following a well designed course material
• Experimenting with 3D demonstrations
• Watching movies
• Reading reference material
– Assess knowledge • Answers questions that relate to the learning objective
– Follow their own progress on their Personal Desktop– Give general feedback and send error reports
eere.energy.gov
Communications Features
• Communication tools [not currently enabled]– Instant Messaging– Forums– Blog– Wiki– Email notification– Auto tweets
eere.energy.gov
Authoring and Administration Features
• Course Management tools– SCORM compliant course development (2004 3rd edition )– World Creator for rapid simulation development– Test creator– Student learning progress tracking– Template support
• Technical aspects– Open source and open standards– Support of widely used browsers (IE, Firefox, Safari, Chrome)– Windows and Linux server support– MYSQL, Oracle or MSSQL
• Administration tools– Configuration and user management– Support for multiple skins– Ad hoc reporting engine
eere.energy.gov
Today – General (NWTP)
• System is live at trainingportal.ee.doe.gov.• A single course, building science basics, is available to
serve the needs of the WX.
