Keeping the Curriculum Relevant

To ensure our LOGTECH programs continue to address timely, relevant logistics and technology topics, the IDB meets with the Office of the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Sustainment, the military services, private industry, and academia for feedback on program curriculum. They meet as needed to share views on the current and future state of logistics, supporting technologies, and key strategic challenges.
