The core of the ADL initiative is a network
of three Co-Labs, each with a distinct area of responsibility.
Each Co-lab also serves as a venue for collaboration among parties
interested in advanced distributed learning standards, tools,
and content development.
The
ADL Co-Laboratory in Alexandria, Virginia
is the operational command post of the initiative and coordinates
communication across the ADL Co-Lab Network.
The
Joint ADL Co-Laboratory in Orlando, Florida
was established to promote collaborative development of ADL
prototypes and ADL systems acquisitions, primarily among the
Department of Defense components.
The
Academic ADL Co-Laboratory serves as an academic
partner and ADL link to test, evaluate and demonstrate ADL-compliant
tools and technologies to enhance teaching and learning.
The
three Co-Labs form the backbone of the ADL Initiative. ADL
has also established a relationship with the Learning Lab
at the University of Wolverhampton in England, forming the
ADL UK Partnership Lab. The lab occupies
a strategic position between government, academia and industry
in the United Kingdom.
