5. How to Use the Toolkit Task done
Toolkit Organizing Structure Using the Toolkit Website
There are three primary usage modes anticipated for this toolkit:
    • to be read as a document to gain understanding and insight into the pilot experiences
    • as a live consulting tool, wherein portions of the toolkit are downloaded and used in helping a small organization adopt CMMI
    • as a live learning tool, wherein portions of the toolkit are downloaded and used to try some aspect of CMMI adoption within a small organization.
If you're looking at a .pdf file in a Technical Report format, you've engaged in the first usage mode.  If you are looking at a set of .html pages with live attachments embedded, you've engaged in the second or third usage mode.  This section provides information to help you productively navigate and use the toolkit in any of the above modes.
