The two-day conference supported by this proposal focuses on furthering diversity in the emerging transportation workforce. The workshop places emphasis on partnerships between 2-year community colleges (especially minority-serving institutions or MSIs), 4-year MSIs, and industry stakeholders from the transportation sector. By bringing together 2-year community colleges, MSIs, transportation industry leaders, and government, the workshop provides an opportunity for capacity building. It will allow for the exploration of model programs, case studies, research findings, data, and innovative expert insights. The convening also defines research questions and identifies potential sponsors for a possible larger NAS consensus study on gender and racial/ethnic equity in the transportation workforce.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.

该提案支持的为期两天的会议重点关注进一步促进新兴运输劳动力的多样性。该研讨会强调两年制社区学院（特别是少数族裔服务机构或 MSI）、四年制 MSI 和交通部门行业利益相关者之间的合作伙伴关系。通过将两年制社区学院、MSI、交通行业领导者和政府聚集在一起，研讨会提供了一个能力建设的机会。它将允许探索模型项目、案例研究、研究成果、数据和创新的专家见解。此次会议还确定了研究问题，并确定了可能的更大规模的 NAS 共识研究的潜在赞助商，该研究涉及交通运输劳动力中的性别和种族/民族平等。该奖项反映了 NSF 的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优点和能力进行评估，被认为值得支持。更广泛的影响审查标准。
