The research enterprise requires a skilled research innovation workforce, consisting of highly trained and skilled practitioners in areas such as advanced cyberinfrastructure (CI), research software engineering, operations, and user support. A recent report from the National Science and Technology Council highlighted the need for this workforce. This project will conduct a series of virtual workshop sessions among a variety of affinity groups that includes academics and practioners to discuss and explore the problems and challenges affecting the growth and vitality of the research innovation workforce, and to discuss and identify potential strategies and solutions to help address these challenges. The workshop will be conducted entirely virtually with the aid of a skilled workshop facilitator. The outcomes of the proposed workshop will be a set of recommendations to the National Science Foundation related to CI professional workforce development; a better understanding of the challenges and problems affecting research innovation gleaned from discussions within and across affinity groups; and increased awareness of potentially cross-cutting strategies and solutions to encourage the growth and health of the national research innovation workforce.The workshop seeks to facilitate a discussion among the affinity groups who collectively participate in the research enterprise, specifically targeting issues related to building and enhancing the CI professional workforce (e.g. research software engineers, research data science professionals, advanced cyberinfrastructure systems professionals, etc.) with the goal of identifying problem areas, discussing and identifying potential solutions, and developing a set of recommendations for consideration by the national research community and the NSF. The workshop co-chairs and steering committee represent a broad group of stakeholders. The primary goal of the proposed workshop is to explore the challenges and potential strategies and solutions to address the need for an advanced CI research innovation workforce that is essential to advancing the frontiers of computational and data-intensive scientific research. The workshop will result in a report with recommendations for fostering growth and career paths for a diverse, inclusive, and emerging set of professionals that collaborates across traditional boundaries and enables research and education.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

研究企业需要熟练的研究创新劳动力，由高级网络基础设施（CI），研究软件工程，运营和用户支持等领域的训练有素且熟练的从业人员组成。国家科学技术委员会的最新报告强调了这项劳动力的需求。该项目将在包括学者和实践者在内的各种亲和力小组之间进行一系列虚拟研讨会会议，以讨论和探讨影响研究创新劳动力的成长和活力的问题和挑战，并讨论并确定潜在的策略和解决方案，以实现潜在的战略和解决方案，以实现和解决方案帮助解决这些挑战。该研讨会将在熟练的研讨会主持人的帮助下完全完全进行。拟议研讨会的结果将是与CI专业劳动力发展有关的国家科学基金会的一系列建议；更好地理解影响研究创新的挑战和问题，从亲和力群体内部和跨性别群体中的讨论中收集到；并提高人们对潜在的跨审判策略和解决方案的认识，以鼓励国家研究创新劳动力的增长和健康。该研讨会旨在促进共同参与研究企业的亲和力小组之间的讨论，特别针对与建筑和建立和有关的问题增强CI专业劳动力（例如研究软件工程师，研究数据科学专业人员，高级网络基础设施系统专业人员等），以识别问题领域，讨论和识别潜在的解决方案，并开发一系列建议，以供国家研究考虑一系列建议。社区和NSF。研讨会联合主席和指导委员会代表了一群利益相关者。拟议研讨会的主要目标是探索挑战，潜在的策略和解决方案，以满足对高级CI研究创新劳动力的需求，这对于推进计算和数据密集型科学研究的前沿至关重要。该研讨会将导致一份报告，并提出建议，以促进成长和职业道路，以实现各种各样，包容和新兴的专业人士集合，这些专业人员在传统界限进行合作，并可以进行研究和教育。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并被视为值得支持的支持。通过使用基金会的智力优点和更广泛影响的评论标准进行评估。
