C/KC/MC-130 HERCULES

TSM has an 18-year history of involvement in Air Force, Navy, and Marine Corps C-130 training support. This training support effort includes the Combat Talon II, KC-130, and a number of other variants. Interactive Courseware (ICW) development covers a full range of instructional methods and media to include mediated interactive lecture, computer-based training (CBT), interactive courseware, and interactive multimedia instruction. Electronic classrooms have been configured and outfitted with server and student stations working via local area network.

Training efforts range from factory training for new weapon systems to platform instruction, and include full motion simulator instructors, flight instructors, and mission systems instructors.

C-130 training delivery methodologies employ an array of distributed learning alternatives such as using sharable content object reference model (SCORM)-compliant technology, web-enabled technology, extranet, intranet, and virtual private networking.
