As part of DAU’s emphasis on Workflow Learning, 61 links to ACQuipedia articles were created within all 12 of Contracting’s distance learning courses and continuous learning modules required for DAWIA certification in Contracting. Professor Ray Ward used the revision tool in DART to create the 61 hyperlinks to 48 separate ACQuipedia articles, including articles from the Business, Contracting (including Property), Engineering and Technology, Life Cycle Logistics, and Program Management functional areas in ACQuipedia. Each distance learning course now has at least five links to articles and each continuous learning module at least three. This project will result in improved learning outcomes by engaging the thousands of DAU learners who complete the 12 affected courses and modules every year, and will continue to reap benefits for years to come as these learners use ACQuipedia as a resource more effectively.
