, opportunities to collect data are often limited to a single shot, making explosive testshigh-stakes events, with limited room for error and significant costs associated with each test.Professionals in government, military, and industry roles must not only master the tools of thetrade but also learn to interpret the data to drive decisions. This requires more than familiaritywith instrumentation, it demands the ability to plan experiments, troubleshoot challenges, andcritically analyze outcomes. Developing these skills in a structured and safe environment, freefrom the high stakes of real-world testing, is essential for preparing students for the demands oftheir career.Distance education introduces additional challenges to learning design and
