New LOG 215 Technical Data Management Course Now Available

Bill Kobren

A new LOG 215 Technical Data Management web-based distance learning course deployed earlier today, and is now available for student registration! This new course is intended to provide a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of technical data management strategies, planning, processes, products and tools across the life cycle based on DoD policy, guidance, processes, procedures and best business practices from across the Services and industry across the product life cycle. While not a required Defense Acquisition Workforce Improvement Act (DAWIA) certification course per se, effective today, it is the newest addition to the “choose one of five” options available in the Life Cycle Logistics Level II certification “pick list”. It is also highly recommended for all life cycle logisticians who may have already fulfilled their formal Level II certification requirements, as well as DoD Technical Data Managers and members of other functional communities such as systems engineers, production, quality and manufacturing (PQM), program managers, and contracting officers.  

 

The deployment of LOG 215 represents something of a milestone for both the Defense Acqusition University (DAU) in general, and the DoD Life Cycle Logistics community in particular-- namely the completion of the life cycle logistics learning asset portfolio transformation that has been underway as a result of the DoD Logistics Human Capital Strategy issuance in 2008, the publication of the DoD Weapon System Acquisition Reform: Product Support Assessment in 2009, and the 2012 update to the Life Cycle Logistics career field competency list.  

 

In addition to this new technical data management course, as I shared in a 2013 blog post entitled  Suite of Technical Data Management Training Modules,” DAU also provides a suite of eight multi-disciplinary continuous learning modules that address specific aspects of intellectual property, data rights, and data management. These modules include:

 

·          CLE 068 Intellectual Property & Data Rights

·          CLM 071 Introduction to Data Management   

·          CLM 072 Data Management Strategy Development  

·          CLM 073 Data Management Planning System   

·          CLM 074 Technical Data and Computer Software Rights 

·          CLM 075 Data Acquisition  

·          CLM 076 Data Markings  

·          CLM 077 Data Management Protection and Storage

 

Since these topics directly impact all of us to one degree or another, encourage you to check out both these continuous learning modules, as well as the new LOG 215 Technical Data Management course.
