For the first time, with the development and guidance from prime
contract holder RevaComm, Galvanize has modified its commercial
proprietary LEARN training and technology system to deploy on
Platform One, the Air Force, and the Department of Defense’s
hardened internal technology platform. Over 11,000 members of the
Air Force workforce plan to use or have already begun utilizing
this system, with more added each day.
“COVID has forced us all to think differently,” said Harsh
Patel, Galvanize CEO. “We are known for creating world-class
learning outcomes, and our market-leading instructors leveraging
our LEARN software helps make this possible. With the help of
RevaComm, this solution enables us to onboard, train and upskill
active duty and civilian DoD members remotely, via synchronous or
asynchronous learning, and at-scale. We are happy to bring this
capability to the Air Force in an effort to help Airmen and
contractors learn in a more engaging setting.”
Some of the key adaptations of the LEARN software that allow it
to conform to the standards of Platform One, and integrate with
current Department of Defense tools, include containerization of
the LEARN system, integration with current Air Force tools like
GitLab, passing all security and testing protocols, and deploying
to CloudOne, the Air Force internal cloud system. When the project
is fully realized, the LEARN software on Platform One will allow
for high-impact onboarding and training for Airmen and
contractors.
“The goal was to bring 11,000 Airmen and developers into this
space by the end of the year, but when COVID hit, we had to change
the way we solved this, and fast,” said Brett Kimura, President,
RevaComm. “We promptly pivoted to a ‘virtual first’ approach and
leveraged commercial software more than previously anticipated to
help with onboarding. Once we discovered we could utilize the
current Air Force source code repositories and deployments to get
LEARN deployed to CloudOne, we easily provided Platform One and
other DoD or Air Force programs with onboarding-specific
programs.”
As a leading bootcamp education provider in software engineering
and data science, Galvanize helps accelerate the careers of
technical professionals by teaching the skills needed to excel in
modern-day software engineering, data analysis, and data
engineering roles. Galvanize’s software engineering and data
science graduates have been hired by today’s leading innovators
