One of the most recent actions of the Aviation Industry CBT (Computer-Based Training) Committee (AICC) was to publish guidelines for the interoperability of Computer Managed Instruction. This paper describes the AICC guidelines for interoperability of CMI systems. It addresses

How CMI systems in general function

The value of interoperability

Achieving interoperability: An overview of guidelines in three areas

1) CMI/CBT interoperability: How different CMI and CBT systems from different Vendors can work together.

2) CMI/CMI interoperability: How different CMI systems can pass course structure and student management rules to other CMI systems.

3) Lesson evaluation tools: How different data analysis tools can work with CBT from different vendors.
