The Customized Learning Experience Online (CLEO) Lab is a research collaboration between Cisco Systems, IBM, Microsoft and Thomson-NETg. The the CLEO Lab goal is to conduct focused, applied research on technical and pedagogical issues related to the ADL Sharable Content Reference Model (SCORM), an important compilation of e-learning interoperability specifications.

CLEO Lab research will suggest improvements to the ADL SCORM and other specification sets to enable a rich set of learning experiences built upon a foundation of interoperable content. The CLEO Lab is organized as a program of the IEEE Industry Standards and Technology Organization (IEEE-ISTO) which will manage the day-to-day activities of the project.
