APPS FOR THE ARMY - In March, 2010, the Army launched its “Apps for the Army” contest, which gives Army personnel the opportunity to demonstrate their software development skills. “Apps for the Army” applications may tackle any aspect of Army information technology - distributed training, battle command, career management, continuing education or news and information distribution, for example. Winners will receive monetary awards from a cash pool totaling $30,000, and the contest will itself use the Army Knowledge Online collaboration system.
