AAAE Announces First Three Customers for Web-based Learning Management System
ALEXANDRIA, Va.-(Business Wire)-September 30, 2008 - eCISTM (Electronic Computer Instructional System and Training Management), the Web-based, open architecture learning management system (LMS) developed by the American Association of Airport Executives (AAAE), has been selected by three customers to serve their needs for a flexible, scalable in-house training system. The Greater Orlando Aviation Authority (GOAA), the Lee County Port Authority (LCPA), and the Taxicab, Limousine, & Paratransit Association (TLPA) have ordered eCISTM packages to address their training and regulatory compliance needs.
GOAA’s LMS is being customized to train employees at Orlando International and Orlando Executive Airports. GOAA’s eCISTM will be built to manage four airport-specific training programs: movement area driver training; Security Information Display Area (SIDA) training; security sterile area training; and vehicle operator driver training. AAAE’s ANTN video production team is producing these courses as part of GOAA’s LMS order. Delivery of the GOAA LMS and the four courses is slated for early 2009.
LCPA also selected eCISTM for its LMS training needs. The system, ordered in May, will train and test employees and contractors at Southwest Florida International Airport. Initial programs will cover SIDA procedures, non-movement area driver training and baggage handling procedures.
GOAA’s and LCPA’s eCISTMs will be networked to separate local application service providers, allowing airport employee training records to be maintained onsite in a single repository for each airport. This will help the customers manage their training programs and comply with regulatory requirements, such as FAA Part 139.303, that mandate training recordkeeping.
AAAE’s third eCISTM customer is TLPA, which represents airport shuttle, executive sedan, limousine, non-emergency medical transportation, paratransit and taxicab fleets. TLPA will use eCISTM to deliver nine training courses to its members.
eCISTM is built on an open architecture that allows local modifications to the training modules. Instructors can choose from a large selection of activities, instructional components—including video filmed on-site—to build their own custom training courses. The system is easily expandable and able to accommodate additional training courses as needed by the airport or organization. Automated testing, a standard eCISTM feature, ensures employees are mastering the required learning modules.
