The U.S. Department of Defense is partnering with industry and academia on a multiphase CTMA initiative to develop and assess the process of scaling up advanced maintenance training across large enterprises. The desired training utilizes virtual training integrated with hands-on access to physical mockups of particular components or subsystems—known as parts task trainers (PTTs). The overall objective is to improve the quality of maintenance training for commercial vehicle fleets by integrating virtual training with skills practice.
