Navy Knowledge Online A Brief History

• NKO was launched in September 2002 as the
  vehicle for the Chief of Naval Operations ADM
  Vern Clark's initiative to enhance operational
  readiness and increase mission effectiveness.
  The result of the CNO's mandate was a revolution
  in the Navy's Training and education structure.
  As a part of this revolution, NKO has evolved
  into a major component of the Navy's integrated
  delivery system for lifelong learning
  initiatives, personal development, and knowledge
  management.

The Road Ahead

• As both technology and content evolve, so
  shall NKO Afloat.
• The next evolution of NKO Afloat undergoing
  implementation (Sea Warrior Spiral 1) will
  include more functionality and the ability to
  access 5VM, ETJ, JCMS, and the Learning
  Management System (LMS / ILE).
• Each subsequent spiral (system revision) is
  expected to be more robust than its predecessor.
• The ultimate goal would be to replicate the
  complete functionality of that which is available
  to the shore NKO Portal user.

Vision

• The Navy doesnt lose corporate knowledge due
  to transfers and attrition.
• Sailors learn and grow continually. As a result,
  retention continues to improve, and we have
  smarter sailors.
• The Navy becomes The Learning Organization and
  all that implies.

Ashore User Login

• WWW.NKO.NAVY.MIL

Afloat/Ashore Differences

• Many tabs and links are not available on the
  Afloat version in the interest of bandwidth
• Public forums, discussion threads and posts are
  the only items replicated in the Afloat version
• The most noticeable difference is the content
  contained, again, due to bandwidth restrictions.
  The Afloat and Ashore version have the same look
  and feel enabling the user to easily transition
  between the two for use.
• Although the Afloat and Ashore versions are
  separate, you will not need separate accounts for
  user logins and passwords.
• The Afloat version is resident on your ships
  server
• The Ashore version is resident on servers via the
  web
