BOSTON—May 15, 2006—BT Global Services has selected the
OutStart Evolution learning content management system to support the
Royal Navy’s Type 45 training content development program.
BT Global Services provides communications solutions

According to a company announcement, the Royal Navy will use the system
to develop, roll out, and track the progress of more than 50 e-learning
courses intended for trainee operatives of the new Type 45 destroyer.
The courses will comprise contributions from the Royal Navy’s subject matter experts, as
well as information and content in the form of simulations and emulations,
delivered via the Defence Learning Portal (DLP), reportedly Europe’s
largest learning system.
According to the announcement, Evolution is
intended to address three stages of content creation—rapid content
development, enterprise content development, and enterprise learning
content management. It also reportedly combines formal training, knowledge
sharing, and expert collaboration available on-demand to increase individual
