  Come break things (in a good way). Then build them smarter.
  We’re the tech company everyone calls when things get weird. We don’t wear capes (they’re a safety hazard), but we do solve high-stakes problems with code, caffeine, and a healthy disregard for “how it’s always been done.”

• Conduct training needs assessments by role, customer, and mission area to prioritize development areas across the workforce.
• Regularly review and integrate updated joint doctrine, service guidance, white papers, and COCOM-issued materials into training content.
