Advanced Distributed Learning
ADL (Advanced Distributed Learning) Initiative was formed as a developer and implementer of learning technologies across the Department of Defense (DoD) of the United States of America. It was created through the sponsorship of the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Personnel and Readiness (OUSD P&R) to harness the power of information technologies to modernize structured learning.

The vision of the ADL Initiative is to provide access to the highest-quality learning and performance aiding that can be tailored to individual needs and delivered cost-effectively, anytime and anywhere.
