Recent findings indicate that community college graduates in information technology (IT) face substantial competition for technician level jobs due to preference for four-year graduates by hiring managers, the trend to outsourcing IT positions and also sending them off-shore. Through surveys and interviews, the National Workforce Center for Emerging Technologies (NWCET) and the Information Technology Association of America (ITAA) collaborate to identify and analyze hiring managers' perceptions of community and technical college graduates in this employment context. The results are disseminated in a report, Staying Competitive by Strengthening Connections, that provides a foundation for educators to better understand how industry views two-year college programs and graduates, and helps hiring managers understand the capabilities of graduates of two-year college programs. The report should also help change the perceptions of hiring managers and help two-year colleges modify their programs. The research design and implementation are contracted to Market Decisions Corporation.

最近的调查结果表明，社区学院信息技术（IT）毕业生面临着技术人员水平的工作，由于招聘经理对四年制毕业生的偏好，外包IT职位的趋势，也将他们送到海外。 通过调查和访谈，国家新兴技术劳动力中心（NWCET）和美国信息技术协会（ITAA）合作，以确定和分析招聘经理对社区和技术学院毕业生在这种就业背景下的看法。研究结果在一份名为《通过加强联系保持竞争力》的报告中发布，该报告为教育工作者更好地了解行业如何看待两年制大学课程和毕业生提供了基础，并帮助招聘经理了解两年制大学课程毕业生的能力。 这份报告还应该有助于改变招聘经理的看法，并帮助两年制大学修改他们的课程。 研究设计和实施承包给市场决策公司。
