3. DAU Regional Orientation In FY 02, we established five regional campuses in areas where the DoD Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics workforce is highly concentrated. (Walk around map) Each DAU location is fully equipped to accommodate student needs. Classrooms are furnished with state-of-the-art equipment to enhance the student�s learning experience. Locating near our customers allows us to avoid travel costs. We have used these cost avoidances to fund curriculum re-engineering and e-learning initiatives. Our customers are able to receive improved learning solutions at no increase in the DAU budget. Placing our resources closer to the customer allows our faculty to be real-time players with our customers, providing field organizations with performance support to help solve complex workplace issues and targeted training to supplement our regular courses . . . We are a part of the community as opposed to a place to go to take classes.In FY 02, we established five regional campuses in areas where the DoD Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics workforce is highly concentrated.
