AICC (CBT)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Aviation (All Emcompassing) Industry CBT (Computer-Based Training) Committee (AICC) is an international association of technology-based training professionals. The AICC develops guidelines for aviation industry in the development, delivery, and evaluation of CBT, WBT and related training technologies.
The AICC HACP standard for CMI is widely used by Learning Management Systems and other systems to call content and assessments. Although it's pre-XML, it's very robust and unambiguous and many consider it to be more secure and reliable than alternatives such as SCORM, especially for content or assessments hosted on web servers not colocated with the calling system.
An emerging standard is the AICC PENS standard, which lets content creating tools send a manifest to an LMS easily. The September 2006 AICC meeting included a Plugfest where vendors demonstrated PENS interoperability.
