Nanotechnology is a growing industry in the "Tech Valley," the northeastern section of New York State. In response to this demand, the college, geographically located at the center of Tech Valley and the Capital Region, is developing a plan to establish the Tech Valley ATE Center for Semiconductor and Nanotechnology Workforce Development. This planning project, through field research, consultation with NSF ATE experts, and organization of both a regional planning summit and educators' workshop, engages a partnership from among education, industry and government resources to develop a strategic plan for a center that offers semiconductor and nanotechnology-related associate's degree programs, faculty professional development, 2+2+2 pipeline transfer programs, career track training, and employment placement aligned with workforce demands. The Center's design plan addresses the workforce education/training needs of these industries in Tech Valley, as well as New York State and the Northeast region. The Intellectual Merit of this project is two-fold: (1) This project engages the leadership and expertise of two ATE Centers, MATEC and NCTT, in order to develop a comprehensive plan for an ATE workforce development center to meet the education and training needs of the growing semiconductor and nanotech related businesses in the region and beyond. (2) Building on the skills standards established by MATEC, this project is establishing for the Tech Valley Region the foundation for the development of an innovative curriculum, collaborative educational materials, and training programs with a strong science and mathematics core that meet the sophisticated needs of the semiconductor and nanotechnology industry. The Broader Impact of this project is in the strategic partnerships this planning grant can forge among the workforce professionals in the region to address the growing need for semiconductor manufacturing and nanotechnology related technicians. A major challenge for strategic workforce planning is to effectively bring all the regional stakeholders together into a working partnership. This planning project is the critical first step toward development of a regional ATE workforce development center that directly serves the semiconductor and nanotech industry all along the Tech Valley region, greater New York State, and adjacent regions as well.

纳米技术是纽约州东北部“科技谷”中成长中的行业。 为了应对这一需求，该学院位于科技谷和首都地区的中心，正在制定一项计划，以建立技术谷Ate Ate半导体和纳米技术劳动力发展中心。该计划项目通过现场研究，与NSF ATE专家进行磋商，以及组织峰会和教育工作者研讨会的组织，与教育，行业和政府资源之间的合作伙伴关系，以制定一个提供半导体和半导体和半导体的战略计划与纳米技术相关的副学士学位课程，教师专业发展，2+2+2管道转移计划，职业轨道培训和与劳动力需求一致的就业安置。该中心的设计计划解决了这些行业在科技谷以及纽约州和东北地区的劳动力教育/培训需求。该项目的智力优点是两个方面：（1）该项目参与了两个Ate Centers，Matec和NCTT的领导和专业知识，以制定全面的计划，以满足劳动力发展中心以满足教育和培训需求该地区及其他地区不断增长的半导体和纳米技术相关业务。 （2）基于MATEC建立的技能标准，该项目为技术谷地区建立了创新课程，协作教育材料和培训计划的基础，并具有强大的科学和数学核心半导体和纳米技术行业的成员。该项目的更广泛影响在于该计划赠款可以在该地区的劳动力专业人员中锻造的战略合作伙伴，以满足对半导体制造和纳米技术相关技术人员日益增长的需求。战略劳动力计划的主要挑战是有效地将所有区域利益相关者聚集在一起。该计划项目是开发区域ATE劳动力发展中心的关键第一步，该中心直接为整个技术谷地区，大纽约州和邻近地区的半导体和纳米技术行业提供服务。
