Advanced Training Technologies Program (ATT)Worker Education and Training ProgramThis program focuses on the development of Advanced Training Technology (ATT) products for the health and safety training of hazardous materials (HAZMAT) workers, emergency responders, and skilled support personnel. NIEHS intends to build on its program experience in environmental safety and health training by stimulating creative Small Business Innovation Research proposals to create ATT products that will support high quality health and safety training for hazardous materials workers, emergency responders, and skilled support personnel. To further enhance our ability to move toward commercialization of ATT products relevant to model safety and health training for hazardous materials workers, emergency responders, and skilled support personnel, this initiative focuses on the development of technology driven commercial products using the Small Business Innovative Research (SBIR)/Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) program.

In recent years there have been enormous technological advancements
in computer-based technologies and applications. These ATT include a
wide variety of electronic learning (e-learning) components. Distance
learning, electronic classrooms, interactive TV, multimedia, computer-based
training, computer-assisted training, virtual reality training simulations,
CD, CD-R, DVD and video teleconferencing, among others, have and are
being developed and advanced to support expanding training needs and
requirements.
