In 1988 and 1989, ASTC offered a seven-day institute for founders of new science centers, funded by the National Science Foundation. The impact of these institutes was profound, making the difference between success and failure for several, and helping many others clarify and strengthen their plans. Since then demand for technical assistance to new science centers has increased rather than decreased. Building on its experience, ASTC proposes a 3-1/2 year multiple-strategy program to provide knowledgeable, supportive guidance to the founders of new science centers. The elements are: (1) a 4-day workshop on how to start a science center; (2) a resource book on starting and operating science centers; (3) a network for new science centers which meets at the ASTC annual conference for mutual support and information sharing; (4) one-day workshops held in Conjunction with the ASTC conference and planned by the steering committee of the New Science Center Network; (5) increased coverage in the ASTC Newsletter; (6) an annual progress report on new science centers; and (7) on-going, individualized technical assistance.

在1988年和1989年，ASTC提供了一个为期七天的研究所， 为新科学中心的创始人，由国家资助 科学基金会。 这些机构的影响是 深刻的，使成功和失败之间的差异 对一些人来说，并帮助许多人澄清和加强 他们的计划 自那时以来， 新的科学中心不仅没有减少，反而增加了。 根据其经验，ASTC提出了一个3-1/2年 多战略计划，以提供知识渊博， 对新科学中心创始人的支持性指导。 这些要素是： (1)为期4天的研讨会，讨论如何启动一项科学 中心; (2)关于启动和操作的资源书 科学中心; (3)一个新的科学中心网络， 在ASTC年度会议上， 支持和信息共享; (4)与联合国合办的为期一天的讲习班 ASTC会议，并计划由 新科学中心指导委员会 网络; (5)增加《非洲技术合作协会通讯》的报道; (6)新科学的年度进展报告 中心;以及 (7)持续的个性化技术 援助.
