In government, industry, and educational institutions the need to reduce costs, improve personnel performance, increase organizational efficiency, and enhance product or service quality is a critical management responsibility in an era of organizational downsizing and heightened competitive pressures. A way to address these issues is through the application of the latest technologies for education and training systems, job performance improvement systems, and knowledge management systems. These technologies offer great potential with the prospect of early implementation and organization-wide utilization. The Interactive  Technologies Conference will be a premier venue for the presentation of the cutting edge of the state-of-the-art in these areas. The conference objective is to provide a comprehensive overview of the latest in research, design, and development in order to furnish attendees information on systems that are applicable to their organizations.

Conference topic presentations will describe applications and technology (hard-computer based, and soft-organization, roles, systems) to accomplish the foregoing. Presentations will include development, utilization and implementation of new technologies as they relate to: Increased Personnel Effectiveness; Reduced Training Costs; Increased Return on Investment; Reduced Training Time; Reduced Operating and Support Cost; Productivity Gains; Quality Improvement; Advanced Instruction Delivery Capability; Management Information Systems; Decision Support Systems; and Budget Management and Planning. They will include applications in areas such as:

  • Mobile Computing
  • Assessment
  • Gaming & Simulation
  • E-Learning
  • Knowledge Management
  • Instructional Systems Development
  • Training

As has been the case at SALT® sponsored conferences over the past 35 years, the attendees will participate in a meeting format which encourages an atmosphere of collegial interchanges and interaction among participants from diverse disciplines.
