Collaborative Project: Air Force Institute of Technology and Sinclair Community College: Building Core IA Educational Capacity

作为国家安全局指定的信息保障教育学术卓越中心 (CAE/IAE)，空军理工学院 (AFIT) 信息安全教育与研究中心 (CISER) 为培养信息保障 (IA) 合格专业人员做出了重大贡献。通过该项目，CISER 和俄亥俄州代顿辛克莱社区学院正在建立教育合作伙伴关系，以促进信息保障 (IA) 意识、教育和知识。 AFIT 和 Sinclair CC 正在开发师资资源并制作独特的课程，以满足行业、政府、急救人员和执法部门的需求。这种合作关系允许 AFIT 教师、IA 课程和实验室资源与 Sinclair 教师共享。这项工作的教师发展部分以现有 Sinclair 教师 IT 专业知识为基础，将他们的学术项目扩展到 IA 领域。 CISER 正在与 Sinclair 教师共享课程和实验室材料。智力上的优点。该项目提供以下可交付成果：社区大学级别的网络取证课程，用于向急救人员和从业人员广泛传播；辛克莱 IT/IA 项目的 NSTISSI 4011 课程映射；辛克莱 CC 的两名受过 IA 教育的教员；以及在社区大学级别传播 IA 项目开发的项目报告。更广泛的影响。 AFIT 和 Sinclair CC 之间的合作正在通过将经过验证的课程和实践融入到社区大学环境中，将网络取证知识扩展到更多、更多样化的学生群体。随着这种合作伙伴关系对 IA 的关注不断增加，课程扩展正在从 CIS 项目扩展到 Sinclair 的其他学术部门，例如法律协助、法医课程的刑事司法项目以及联合健康课程，在这些课程中，获取、保护和传输患者信息变得越来越重要。该项目正在为每年增加 500 名学生的参与奠定基础。这一合作伙伴关系使 AFIT 和 Sinclair 还能够通过 Sinclair 的网络取证课程对执法界的教育产生更广泛的影响。

As a National Security Agency designated Center of Academic Excellence in Information Assurance Education (CAE/IAE), the Center for Information Security Education and Research (CISER) at the Air Force Institute of Technology (AFIT) is making significant contributions to the production of information assurance (IA) qualified professionals. Through this project, CISER and Sinclair Community College in Dayton Ohio are forming an educational partnership for the advancement of information assurance (IA) awareness, education, and knowledge. AFIT and Sinclair CC are developing faculty resources and producing a unique curriculum to serve the needs of industry, government, first responders, and law enforcement. This partnership is allowing AFIT faculty, IA curricula, and laboratory resources to be shared with Sinclair faculty. The faculty development portion of this effort is building upon existing Sinclair faculty IT expertise to extend their academic programs into the IA arena. CISER is sharing course and laboratory material with Sinclair faculty. Intellectual merit. The project is providing the following deliverables: a cyber forensics course at the community college level for broad dissemination to first-responders and practitioners, a NSTISSI 4011 course mapping for Sinclair IT/IA programs, two IA educated faculty members for Sinclair CC, and project reports to disseminate the development of an IA program at the community college level.Broader impact. The partnership between AFIT and Sinclair CC is expanding the knowledge of cyber forensics to a larger and more diverse student population by integrating proven curricula and practices into the community college environment. With the increased IA focus this partnership is providing, curriculum expansions are extending beyond the CIS program to other academic departments at Sinclair such as Legal Assisting, the Criminal Justice program for forensics courses, and Allied Health courses where obtaining, securing, and transmitting patient information is becoming increasingly critical. The project is laying the groundwork to involve an additional 500+ students annually. This partnership is allowing AFIT and Sinclair to also make a broader impact on the education of the law enforcement community via the cyber forensics course at Sinclair.
