0438229SnyderThis award is to the University of Florida to support the activity described below for 36 months. The proposal was submitted in response to the Partnerships for Innovation Program Solicitation (NSF-04556).PartnersThe partners include the University of Florida (Lead Institution), International Society for Pharmaceutical Engineering, Marion County Public Schools, Santa Fe Community College, School Board of Alachua County, Enterprise Florida, Florida Department of Education, Central Florida Community College, Florida Research Consortium, School Board of Bradford County, Scripps Research Institute, and BioFlorida.The primary objective of the proposal follows. This proposal provides the opportunity to develop essential vocational/academic state-of-the-art workforce training for stimulating high-wage high-skill jobs in a clean industry. The goal is to create model curricula and pilot programs at both Community College and High School levels that will then be reproduced throughout the state and the nation. In addition, the effort will provide a unique capability for a realistic training environment and, ultimately, employment. Together, with the partners, Florida Partnership for Industrial Biology (FPIB) will: build infrastructure by equipping the Center of Excellence for Regenerative Health Biotechnology (CERHB) Education Center; develop curricula; train faculty; and deliver the curricula to attract and educate students for entry and mid-level careers in the biotechnology. Potential Economic ImpactNew statewide initiatives are being implemented to expand Floridas biotechnology industry. Along with this expansion there is a need to fill technical positions with trained and qualified workers. In addition, as biotechnology companies transition discoveries made in the research laboratory into products, their workforce skill requirements change. Currently, there is a shortage of trained personnel who are capable of manufacturing biological and medical products.The intellectual merit of the project follows. The proposal is designed to train faculty and deliver curricula to high school/college students and provide training for entry and mid level jobs in the biotechnology industry that will stimulate and capitalize innovation in the area of workforce development. In addition the project will build infrastructure through the creation of an education center. The creation and access to new knowledge for workforce development will offer High school tracks and certificates in a very comprehensive approach to workforce preparation. The proposal offers an integrated approach to workforce development beginning at the high school level.The broader impacts of the activity follow. The potential impact on the economic well being of the region is significant in view of the overall economic push for this industry segment. The project is also designed for national dissemination and replication. In addition, the program will serve as an "innovative, model" project for the nation's Biotechnical field. The activity integrates community colleges and local school systems in the education and training of the diverse workforce.

0438229Snyder 该奖项授予佛罗里达大学，用于支持下述活动 36 个月。 该提案是为了响应创新计划征集伙伴关系 (NSF-04556) 而提交的。 合作伙伴包括佛罗里达大学（牵头机构）、国际制药工程学会、马里恩县公立学校、圣达菲社区学院、阿拉楚阿县学校董事会、佛罗里达州企业局、佛罗里达州教育部、中央佛罗里达社区学院、佛罗里达研究联盟、布拉德福德县学校董事会、 斯克里普斯研究所和生物佛罗里达州。该提案的主要目标如下。该提案提供了发展必要的职业/学术最先进劳动力培训的机会，以刺激清洁行业的高薪高技能工作。目标是在社区学院和高中层面创建示范课程和试点项目，然后在全州和全国推广。此外，这项工作还将为现实的培训环境和最终的就业提供独特的能力。佛罗里达工业生物学合作伙伴关系 (FPIB) 将与合作伙伴一起： 通过装备再生健康生物技术卓越中心 (CERHB) 教育中心来建设基础设施；开发课程；培训师资；提供课程来吸引和教育学生从事生物技术的初级和中级职业。潜在的经济影响正在实施新的全州举措，以扩大佛罗里达州的生物技术产业。随着这种扩张，需要用经过培训的合格工人来填补技术职位。此外，随着生物技术公司将研究实验室的发现转化为产品，他们的劳动力技能要求也发生了变化。目前，缺乏有能力制造生物和医疗产品的训练有素的人员。该项目的智力优势如下。该提案旨在培训教师并向高中/大学生提供课程，并为生物技术行业的初级和中级工作提供培训，这将刺激和利用劳动力发展领域的创新。此外，该项目还将通过创建教育中心来建设基础设施。劳动力发展新知识的创造和获取将以非常全面的劳动力准备方法提供高中课程和证书。该提案提供了从高中阶段开始的劳动力发展的综合方法。该活动产生了更广泛的影响。考虑到该行业的整体经济推动力，对该地区经济福祉的潜在影响是重大的。该项目还旨在全国传播和复制。此外，该项目将成为国家生物技术领域的“创新示范”项目。该活动将社区大学和当地学校系统整合到多元化劳动力的教育和培训中。
