Caltrans online training continued to demonstrate innovative techniques. The internally developed online training course, Project Management Overview, was cited as a successful case study in the development of an online simulation in the book, "Engaging Learning - Designing eLearning Simulation Games" by Clark N. Quinn (published by Pfeiffer/John Wiley & Sons, Inc.). The online simulation was also presented to the eLearning Developers Conference & Expo in San Francisco. |

The Division of Procurement and Contracts (DPAC), in cooperation with Audits, Legal, Civil Rights, the districts and our partners in the A&E consulting community, developed and implemented a program to process A&E contracts in sixty working days, a savings of approximately 130 working days. During the 05/06 FY DPAC processed 34 A&E contracts using the accelerated process averaging 54 working days per contract. The process has been adopted as the standard. |
