Yesterday Forterra announced that it had been recognized by the National Training and Simulation Association with its Modeling and Simulation Cross-Function award. The award was given to Forterra and partners IDSI and Rustici Software as recognition of their integration of SCORM (Shareable Content Object Reference Model) content into the OLIVE virtual worlds platform this past summer. The SCORM standard is meant to allow Web-based training assets to be used in different environments for distance learning.

"Every Forterra employee, customer, and partner is extremely proud of the recognition we have achieved through winning this award," Dr. Mike Macedonia, GM/VP of Forterra Federal Systems, said in a statement. "We’re gratified that our hard work to enhance our OLIVE virtual world platform to transform learning and collaboration with SCORM content has been so well received. This will enable the development of virtual learning facilities that exploit traditional online-content while providing interactive and collaborative experiences over the Internet."
