How is the NTTR organized?
Data in the NTTR are mapped to the one or more Technical Categories found in the Transportation Curriculum Technical Council (TCCC) Competency Matrices. The NTTR has tools that allow a user to map a map a resource down to the Skill Level Competency. As the NTTR is populated, training leaders will be able to identify resource gaps that need to be filled for various competencies. The NTTR application consists of four components: • Resources. A resource consists of information (data) that describes training resources. Resources include blogs, CDs/DVDs, conferences, blended courses, classroom courses, web-based courses, documents, email lists, journals, presentations, software/web applications, textbooks, videos, webinars, websites, and workshops. • A public website for searching the NTTR database for resources. • An administrative tool for uploading and managing resources. • A relational database for storing resources and database business rules.
