Executive Summary

2015-conferenceWinning the global skills race has been identified as a critical recommendation in every recent report on U.S. economic competitiveness. As developing countries increasingly educate their workforce in science and technology the U.S. must keep pace with the changing nature of the competition. To maintain leadership in the global marketplace, our nation needs a technically savvy science and engineering workforce capable of translating knowledge and skills into new processes, products, and services.

ATE Collaborative Outreach and Engagement (ACOE)

The ATE Community jointly exhibit at many conference during the year in a effort to broaden the impact of the ATE program; recruit more participants in the grant program, and disseminate the products and activities of individual centers and projects. The ACOE project and representatives from funded centers and projects regularly exhibit at the large conferences listed in the table below with the primary audience of each event. We also often attend and display at smaller venues with table displays or presentations: National Coalition of Advanced Technology Centers (NCATC); National Association for workforce Improvement (NAWI), National Council for Workforce Education (NCWE) and the Conference for Industry and Education Collaboration (CIEC) and other smaller venues with single table displays. (You can find out more about all these conferences and their target audiences on their websites.
