The Medical Modernization and Simulation Division (MMSD) is responsible for all medical education and training requests submitted to the DHA's Education and Training Directorate (J-7) for review. This responsibility is currently housed within the Defense Medical Modeling and Simulation Office (DMMSO). DMMSO is also responsible for the coordination of Medical Modeling and Simulation across the DOD. MMSD is in the process of integrating the Virtual Education Center into its structure.

Through modernizing and centralizing educational resources and technologies, MMSD will:

• Establish a synchronized education, education technology, and resource modernization and management structure.
• Standardize and centralize MHS training and education data into the total learning architecture. This will provide critical skills-based data tracking and evaluation across the MHS and data aggregation at the enterprise, service, and individual levels.
• Host a platform that provides validated education materials for providers, beneficiaries, and their families across the MHS promoting wellness. This will result in better health and quality of life.
