Information Science and Systems (33) This project establishes the Information Assurance Excellence Program (IAEP) to address the need for Information Assurance specialists in federal government agencies. The program creates a long-term recruitment pipeline that includes recruiting students on campus, creating agreements with community colleges, and providing early exposure for high school students. In addition to enrolling in courses as a cohort, the Scholars engage in professional and career development activities in which they deliver technical workshops and have opportunities to engage in discussions with practicing professionals. They participate in technology competitions and they work on research projects.The evaluation of the program components and its overall effectiveness contributes to the body of knowledge and best practice strategies for successful recruitment, mentorship, retention and placement of Information Assurance professionals. This program emphasizes practice. Under the mentorship of experienced faculty and alumni IA professionals, IAEP students are required to work in applied activities beyond the classroom. Specific requirements include the dissemination of skills based learning in the form of presentations and workshops, peer outreach to community colleges and high schools, and participation in regional IA competitions.IAEP recruitment efforts focus on attracting a diverse range of applicants from CSUSB and community colleges, many of whom are likely to be students from underrepresented groups. By offering mentoring and support to increase the scholarly abilities of these future professionals, and by maintaining these support mechanisms throughout their internships and in their ultimate placement, the program experiences little attrition. The results of the program form a replicable model that can be disseminated to other participating Center of Academic Excellence in Information Assurance colleges and universities.

信息科学与系统（33）该项目建立了信息保证卓越计划（IAEP），以满足联邦政府机构中信息保证专家的需求。该计划创建了一条长期的招聘管道，其中包括在校园内招募学生，与社区大学达成协议，并为高中生提供早期接触。除了参加队列课程外，学者们还从事专业和职业发展活动，在这些活动中，他们提供技术研讨会，并有机会与执业专业人员进行讨论。他们参加了技术竞赛，并从事研究项目。对计划组件的评估及其整体有效性有助于知识和最佳实践策略，以成功招募，指导，保留和安置信息保证专业人员。该计划强调实践。在经验丰富的教师和校友IA专业人士的指导下，IAEP学生必须从事课堂以外的应用活动。具体要求包括以演讲和讲习班的形式传播基于技能的学习，对社区大学和高中的同伴推广，以及参加区域IA竞赛。IAEP招聘工作着重于吸引来自CSUSB和社区学院的各种申请人，其中许多人可能是来自群体不足的学生。通过提供指导和支持以提高这些未来专业人员的学术能力，并通过在实习期和最终位置中维护这些支持机制，该计划几乎没有流失。该计划的结果构成了可复制模型，可以将信息保证学院和大学学术卓越的其他参与学术中心传播。
