The Citadel Group provides secure Defense Message System (DMS) training over the internet using voice over IP technology and live virtual DMS labs. The secure solution hosted is a real DMS environment that is integrated with the SMS support server (SSS) with DMS Directory service agent (DSA) and Microsoft Exchange groupware server with Fortezza authentication for each student.

The Citadel Group Virtual Classroom replicates the SMS to help your organization train your tactical community to effectively send secure messages. The environment can be customized to meet your organizations needs to ensure highly productive users leveraging a highly sophisticated e-learning system that allows DOD organizations to host and deliver highly secure interactive hands-on learning via the Internet supported on multiple platforms to create a SSL port 443 secure learning environment that mirrors the classroom experience. This platform is referred to Virtual Classroom Learning with Live Labs.

Our solution starts with using instructionally sound courseware. We have also built assessment questions at the end of the course. Each student has access to a seamless registration system that is web delivered that provides just-in-time reservations. We also provide an 800 number for student registrations with a trained administrative staff. DMS is delivered on a learning portal that can be customized for your organization which allows your management team access to a real time reporting engine with over 24 packaged reports and the ability to customize other reports.

The primary trainers can either be provided by your organization or provided to complete the task. All trainers go through a four step training process to ensure they have DMS 3.0 and Virtual Classroom training skills.
The entire class experience is delivered over Secure Socket Layer meeting DoD security policies to ensure a highly effective training session that is secure.

The Citadel Group offers a turnkey solution that provides all administrative, training, support, maintenance, tracking, help desk, and reporting services.
