In these free hands-on, interactive workshops, attendees will learn how to develop and leverage a future-facing set of skill standards for any technical discipline.

Travel expenses will be reimbursed via a stipend. Participating schools must send at least two people: one faculty member and one administrator.

"ITSS Summit" attendees will...

• Understand the elements of the BILT (Business and Industry Leadership Team) Model and the skill standards development cycle
• Discuss strategies for recruiting subject matter experts
• Practice preparing and hosting SME meetings to prioritize in-demand job skills and KPIs
• Convert the job skills into student learning outcomes
• Workshop implementing the skill standard materials into curriculum
• Develop mentored “action plans” for next steps

Nanopore sequencing analyzes individual DNA molecules in real time, and is the “next big thing” in biology education, making real-time DNA sequencing accessible to bioscience teachers and faculty. The DNA Learning Center and Oxford Nanopore are adapting nanopore sequencing for use in education, and you can be among the first to test their integrated Oxford Nanopore MinION/DNA Subway system that can provide DNA sequencing and analysis any time, any place, by anyone, and at an affordable price. Workshop participants will each receive a $300 stipend.

The MATE ROV Competition uses remotely operated vehicles (a.k.a. underwater robots) to inspire and challenge students to learn and creatively apply science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) to solve real-world problems and strengthen their critical thinking, collaboration, entrepreneurship, and innovation. 

The MATE ROV Competition challenges students from across the U.S. and around the world to engineer ROVs to complete a set of mission tasks based on real-world, workplace scenarios. The competition emphasizes and inspires a mindset of entrepreneurship and innovation by requiring students to transform their teams into “start-up” companies that respond to an RFP. In addition to their robots, the student teams also prepare technical reports, create a marketing (poster) display, and deliver engineering presentations.

MATE ROV is heading back to Kingsport, Tennessee for the 2024 World Championship! Where: Kingsport Aquatic Center, Kingsport, TN. Save the Date: June 20-22 for the 2024 World Championship, with June 18-19 reserved for team check-in and safety checks.

Central Community College, in partnership with the National Center for Next Generation Manufacturing, is cosponsoring four professional development opportunities this summer!

During each of these trainings, the facilitators and college instructors will build separate trainers from the beginning and go through lessons which are part of the web-based course. The goal of these trainings are that local community colleges will work with high schools to offer dual credit to the high schools. In Nebraska, the community college is providing the instructor of record for the college credit and the facilitator helps the students and provide classroom management, but your school may choose to use these trainers differently. Those interested are welcome to participate in one or all the classes and will receive a stipend for each course participated in. The courses must be taken in sequential order.

Third Course: Intro to PLC's

This workshop will take place virtually on 2 Fridays: June 21, 2024 and June 28, 2024 from 8AM - 2PM Pacific

As seasoned cybersecurity community college educators, mastering the art of AI threat management is essential. This workshop is designed to equip professionals with the knowledge and skills necessary to leverage data science and AI effectively in combating cyber threats. Participants will delve into the transformative potential of AI applications, learning how to harness human intelligence alongside AI technologies to bolster organizational defenses and improve information systems management.

Through a blend of engaging lectures, team activities, lab exercises, and practical examples, attendees will gain invaluable insights into AI methodologies tailored for threat detection, vulnerability assessment, penetration testing, threat hunting, and intelligence gathering. The workshop goes beyond technical aspects, covering essential topics such as AI ethics, governance, risk management, and compliance. Participants will explore the intricacies of building secure AI environments and utilizing AI to assist organizations in performing Privacy Impact Assessments. By the end of the workshop, professionals will emerge equipped with a comprehensive understanding of AI's role in threat management.

This workshop is funded and tailored specifically for community and technical college faculty members wishing to expand their knowledge, earn an industry certification, and strengthen their ability to incorporate new cybersecurity content in their community college curriculum. This workshop is not intended for students or other non-faculty participants.
