Summary The objective of this project is to amplify the capacity-building impact of the CTFP's continuing engagement and education curriculum and foster ties between CbT professionals in partner nations through a web-based platform. The site will be hosted on the GlobalNet community and will be CTFPECCO.org. CTFPECCO.org will host a variety of innovative, interactive, and collaborative modules including: a journal, strategic game-applications, and a collection of oral histories from operators in the war on terror. The site itself will facilitate the CTFP's goal of building and strengthening a global network of CbT experts and practitioners through social and professional networking capabilities such as blogs, messaging and instant messaging, open discussion forums, news sources and a searchable directory. Ultimately CTFPECCO will serve as a center for those activities that strengthen the CTFP network and reinforce the usefulness of CTFP education courses and alumni events.
