2. The Potential to Earn FREE Information Technology (IT), Computer Science (CS) and Geospatial Technology (GST) Workforce Training and Education. Potential Students will have the opportunity to complete stackable certificates as well as prepare for industry certifications Attaining these credentials will enable students to successfully compete to fill the increasing demands for high-skilled workers in the technology sectors of industry and government. Once finished, students will have learned the first important steps toward technological literacy, a critical skill set to succeed in college and a career. 21 st Century Workforce Demands

3. Target Population Unemployed and Under Employed High Risk Socio-Economic Sectors Potential students, but lack the necessary technology skill sets for college success (computer science, information technology, communication & social networking, GPS navigation, GIS) First Time Generation Higher Education students GED graduates, returning college students Relocated workers Young Adults, Middle Age and Seniors

4. Summer Schedule Two to three monthly sessions as needed June > July > August Each session: One week: 5 weekdays Monday-Friday 25-30 total hours A selected workplace technology skills set will be covered daily as a mini course workshop Stackable certificates will be earned by participants at the successful conclusion for each of the five (5) day workshops. ( 5-6 CPEs per) The participant may also earn a final combination certificate indicating their successful completion of all five (5) workshops (25-30 CPEs)

5. Daily Technology Workshops Even “non-techie” beginner students will find these hands on step by step computer literacy lessons engaging but easy to learn The series of technology literacy workshops are designed to assist in providing the fundamental computer competencies a student needs to succeed in the college atmosphere and the career workplace

11. Spatial Awareness is Critical Geospatial thinking will play a significant role in the information- based economy of the 21 st century. If so, spatial thinking also may become something every educated person needs to be able to do, rather than those persons with specialized training” (Johnson & Sullivan, 2010) The New 21 st Century Workforce

12. Geospatial Skill Set Outcomes Define and explain the terms GST, GIS, GPS, GNSS, & Remote Sensing. List some ways that GIS is being used to address real- world problems. Apply a standard approach to solving geographic problems. Display geographic data on a GIS map. Use online resources to quickly create a GIS map. Navigate a GIS map and access use tools to access information about map features. Compare characteristics of places Differentiate between vector and raster data Describe two common data models used to represent real-world objects and phenomena in a GIS. Introduced to simple geocoding operations.

13. Geospatial temporal knowledge GIS and RS/P are essential geospatial tools in many workforce domains” (Allen, 2005, NASA) 13

14. Create location & attribute queries to find and select features that meet specific criteria. Evaluate geographic data for use in a GIS mapping project. Understand concept of scale. Work with a thematic map Visually analyze feature relationships and patterns on a GIS map.
