The Office of the Chief Knowledge Officer
The overarching purpose of the OCKO is to cultivate and sustain a learning culture at Goddard in support of mission success. We have instituted various processes and programs for lessons learned and critical knowledge identification, sharing, and application. The focus of the OCKO is to promote local learning practices that enhances domain-specific expertise within an expanded framework of how NASA works.
Lessons Learned Tools
Explore Goddard's tools for capturing, storing, and sharing Lessons Learned.
Goddard Knowledge Exchange
The GKE provides access/ links to GSFC lessons learned content and other knowledge artifacts from one central location within the Goddard library institutional repository.
Case Studies
The Goddard OCKO has a large collection of case studies covering a wide range of missions and technical topics, including launch decision making, procurement, instrument development, risk management and systems engineering.
Pause and Learn
A Pause and Learn (PaL) session is a structured discussion that focuses on recent project developments, challenges, and critical milestones.
Lesson Capturing
These reflective learning experiences are designed collectively identify the critical drivers and enablers of project success for improvement and capture lessons for current and future teams.
