Four Year Project ( ) $5M total ($1.25M per year for 4 years) Renewable in another ~$5M Extended in another ~$3M Total potential impact is $13M over 12 years ( ) 7 Community Colleges and 4 Universities National in scope Only National Center devoted to geospatial two-year education Should impact ~ 10,000 learners by 2012 Overview

Community College Partners Southwestern College—San Diego CA Lake Land College—Matoon IL Gainesville State College—GA Century College—St. Paul MN Kentucky State Technical & Community College Central Piedmont College—NC Niagara Community College—Niagara NY

University Partners San Diego State University Penn State University Texas A&M University—Corpus Christi

Goals Goal 1: Create a national clearinghouse of exemplary geospatial curriculum material and database web services including: learning objects, training modules, geodatabases, and sources of GIS, GPS, and remote sensing data. This repository will be peer-reviewed, instantly searchable, Internet-based, and continuously updated.

Increase the capacity to educate geospatial technicians through new partnerships and collaborations, including articulation pathways between academic institutions and workforce-needs- assessment with industry partners. Goal 2

Increase the quantity, quality, and diversity of geospatial technicians to meet workforce needs. Goal 3

Increase the number of community college and secondary school teachers participating in professional development through the promotion of professional societies, informal education, and workshops, for example. Goal 4

Sustain the Center long-term by seeking collaborations and sources of funding to maintain and improve services and products. Goal 5

Why am I here? To introduce you to the NGTCe To seek partnerships from respected industry insiders and educators Curricular guidance (workforce needs) Guest speakers Student internships
