Decision Lens won the award for its transformative impact on Army training, through the replatforming of Decision Lens University (DLU) onto a leading-edge tech stack. The award recognizes the company’s success in addressing diverse learning preferences through a three-tiered training model while enhancing skill acquisition and mastery via personalization.

“We have invested significant time and energy in nationwide in-person presentations to share insights and address the need for accessible, practical guidance. We’re thrilled to expand our reach through our podcast – Modernizing Government Planning and Budgeting by tapping into experts whose experiences will undoubtedly enrich our audience’s understanding of governmental modernization.” – Josh Martin, Chief Marketing Officer, Decision Lens
Innovative online platform enhances defense training programs
At the heart of Decision Lens’s award-winning approach is a versatile platform that modernizes government planning and budgeting to meet the strategic needs of the DoD and other public sector entities. The company’s pioneering three-tiered training approach—comprising online instructor-led courses, live in-person sessions, and on-demand virtual classes—addresses the diverse learning preferences of DoD personnel, ensuring a comprehensive and adaptable training experience.
The new Decision Lens University facilitates a personalized learning journey, complete with progress tracking and proactive course recommendations. This not only enhances user engagement but also facilitates skill acquisition, aligning with the strategic goals of defense agencies.
The redesigned user interface simplifies navigation, making it easier to access and utilize the training modules. Custom learning tracks allow users to focus on building the skills they need while learning at their own pace. Knowledge checks and final course evaluations are integrated into the experience, enabling users to master their skillset and earn certificates of completion. This level of customization and progress tracking ensures that the students are fully equipped with the knowledge and skills required to navigate the complexities of modern defense planning and budgeting.
“Over the last ten years it has been evident that providing multiple methods of learning is critical to building and honing skills. I am excited that our on-demand product education offerings are now elevated with expertly developed curriculums. A new online learning experience paired with our in-person and virtual course offerings demonstrates our commitment to ensuring all customers maximize their investment in our software.” – Katie Howell, Senior Education Manager at Decision Lens
Empowering with targeted training solutions
The effectiveness of Decision Lens’s training solutions is reflected in the outstanding feedback from customers. The hands-on exercises and real-time problem-solving scenarios provided in the virtual instructor-led trainings have been particularly praised for their immediate applicability, allowing trainees to apply their learnings in real-world situations.
The Army Finance & Comptroller School’s engagement with Decision Lens allowing experts to present a course is a testament to the company’s respected position in the industry.
