L-­‐3 WESCAM Expands MX-­‐Series eLearning
Course to Include Additional EO/IR Turret Models
BURLINGTON, Canada, November 15, 2012 – L-­‐3 WESCAM announced today that its eLearning
training program, designed for operators and maintainers of MX-­‐Series EO/IR imaging turrets,
now includes courses on MX-­‐10 and MX-­‐20 turret models.
“We are happy to expand our eLearning curriculum to include courses on our MX-­‐10 and MX-­‐20
imaging products,” said Rod Till, vice president of customer service for L-­‐3 WESCAM. “The
customer feedback we received on content and pricing from our MX-­‐15 course was exceptional,
and in turn has helped us to create these courses, which are completely aligned with customer
expectations.”
Similar to the MX-­‐15 training course, the MX-­‐10 and MX-­‐20 eLearning courses were designed to
teach the detailed operation and maintenance skills required to maximize system performance.
The courses cover theory, operations and maintenance topics in an interactive, scenario-­‐based
format. Specific system operations and maintenance tasks can be accessed quickly, making each
course a powerful reference tool in the field. An investment in L-­‐3 WESCAM’s eLearning
programs provides an estimated 70 percent cost savings over traditional in-­‐class courses.
All of L-­‐3 WESCAM’s eLearning courses are geared toward those new to operating and
maintaining MX-­‐Series turrets, and for experienced personnel requiring refresher training.
Modular in design, each course takes an estimated 12 hours to complete and includes modules
with knowledge checks that allow students to apply the newly acquired information. The
courses are available in both stand-­‐alone and Sharable Content Object Reference Model
(SCORM) formats, ensuring easy integration into most learning management systems (LMS). At
the end of each course, a completion certificate is supplied. A sample eLearning module can be
requested by accessing: www.wescam.com/cs/training/elearning.
