In response to workforce needs in central Florida, this project is developing and implementing a cybersecurity specialization within an AS degree program in Computer Engineering Technology (CET). Project objectives include increasing the number of full-time entering students declaring a major in CET by 5% each year, increasing retention rates for targeted CET students by 5% by the end of the project period, and increasing placement rates for targeted CET completers by 5% by the end of the project period.The project is undertaking a number of activities related to curriculum and program development, faculty development, and articulation, including:* establishing qualifications for cybersecurity professionals;* establishing strong partnerships between two-year and four-year institutions, business, industry, and government;* developing articulation agreements between local institutions (especially between Valencia Community College and the University of Central Florida);* integrating certification requirements into courses and programs;* aligning and adapting courses and course content;* preparing students for immediate employment and continued career advancement;* using the National Security Agency categorization of security positions as a framework for developing program requirements;* developing collaborative activities across institutions to promote cybersecurity careers; and* providing faculty with training on the most effective instructional methods for maximizing student learning.Data being collected as indicators of success include course enrollment, retention, and completion; declared majors; program completion; placements; participation of underrepresented groups; and timely completion of project activities.

为了满足佛罗里达州中部的劳动力需求，该项目正在开发和实施计算机工程技术(CET)AS学位课程中的网络安全专业。项目目标包括每年增加5%的全日制入学学生数量，在项目期结束前将目标CET学生的保留率提高5%，并在项目期结束前将目标CET完成者的就业率提高5%。该项目正在开展一系列与课程和项目开发、教师发展和衔接有关的活动，包括：*建立网络安全专业人员的资格；*在两年和四年的机构、商业、行业和政府之间建立牢固的合作伙伴关系；*在当地机构之间(特别是在巴伦西亚社区学院和中佛罗里达大学之间)发展衔接协议；*将认证要求整合到课程和计划中；*调整和调整课程和课程内容；*为学生的直接就业和继续职业发展做好准备；*使用国家安全局对安全职位的分类作为制定计划要求的框架；*发展跨机构的合作活动，促进网络安全职业；以及*为教师提供关于最有效的教学方法的培训，以最大限度地提高学生的学习能力。收集的作为成功指标的数据包括课程注册、保留和完成；宣布的专业；计划完成；安置；代表不足的群体的参与；以及及时完成项目活动。
