For Community College educators teaching technical education course success is often defined as “graduates getting jobs”. Achievement of this goal is often tied to having a direct correlation between the student outcomes from the courses in the program and the industry requirements for new hires at a technician level. Industry participation in CC technical education programs is critical to ensure this correlation and also provide students with insight into the career environment and the myriad of opportunities available. \nThis workshop will focus on a three-step process that educators can follow to prepare them to: \n\nsuccessfully execute the initial contact with industry\nbe prepared for a “face to face” meeting with an industry person and\ninvite participation of the industry/company as a supporting participant in the technician program.\n\nDuring the workshop the participants will walk through the process for their particular technical education program and industry segment. Workshop results will be a checklist of items to complete and various suggestions as well as the first draft of the content that will go on a “blank sheet of paper”. \nPresenter: Deb Newberry\, Founder and CEO- Newberry Technologies \n  URL:https://micronanoeducation.org/event/never-go-in-with-a-blank-sheet-of-paper-a-guide-for-educators-with-a-desire-to-reach-and-work-with-industry-2/ LOCATION:Online CATEGORIES:Workshop END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20210804T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20210804T100000 DTSTAMP:20240328T122119 CREATED:20210219T233625Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210730T212827Z UID:501051-1628067600-1628071200@micronanoeducation.org SUMMARY:Tapping into the Veteran Population to Build a High Tech Workforce Pipeline DESCRIPTION:CANCELLED \nThis session has been transitioned from a live session to a pre-recorded session.
