Sep 30, 2014

Coley will develop short, “Knowledge Nuggets” for the Federal
Acquisition Workforce that deliver knowledge in short bursts at the
point of need.

(San Antonio, TX – September 30, 2014) – Coley was selected by the
Federal Acquisition Institute (FAI) to provide innovative training
solutions for the Federal Acquisition Workforce. Coley’s Smart Bursts™
training solution will be delivered to the FAI as “Knowledge Nuggets;”
which are short bursts knowledge delivered as animated videos at the
employee’s point of need. The Knowledge Nuggets will be hosted on the
FAI.gov website video library and FAI YouTube channel.

Today’s workforce is younger and have access to information sources
such as Google and YouTube that have changed the way they learn. Smart
Bursts are designed to deliver training and education in short, animated
video bursts that give the employee exactly what they need to know when
they need it. The shorter learning bursts are relevant and more engaging
than traditional training and thus organizations benefit because of
employees’ greater retention and rapid application of the new
knowledge.

training and performance solutions that target a changing workforce.
This project demonstrates our innovative skills and use of technology to
provide FAI with a unique training solution.” said Jack Coley, CEO.
