Adayana Government Group (www.adayana.com/government) announced today that it received a contract from the U.S. Air Force Negotiation Center of Excellence (NCE) to develop an experiential learning environment designed to train negotiation skills in cross-cultural environments. The training objective is to prepare junior Air Force and Department of Defense (DoD) personnel (median age 30) on the application of basic negotiation principles in a culturally specific context. Interactive, 3-D game-like training scenarios will be scripted to allow students to practice foreign language skills, and to learn the cultural principles that form the basis of the societies where they operate.
