Collaborative Project: CI-TEAM Implementation Project: A Digital Forensics Cyberinfrastructure Workforce Training Initiative for America's Veterans

这项建议向密西西比州立大学S东南地区法医培训中心及其关键基础设施保护中心团队提供与奥本大学和塔斯基吉大学的合作伙伴，通过与美国退伍军人事务部(VA)合作并在VA医院或其附近提供免费培训，为美国？S退伍军人提供战术级职业培训。该提案要求提供资金，以支持增强现有的数字取证课程，并最终将其安装在全国退伍军人管理系统中。该提案解决了公认和有记录的劳动力对熟练网络基础设施员工的需求，并提出通过培训多样化的社区来满足这一需求。该提案建立在密歇根州立大学、奥本大学和塔斯基吉大学的综合能力基础上。密歇根州立大学和奥本大学都是国家信息保障教育学术卓越中心(CAE/IAE)，塔斯基吉目前正在申请这一认证。该提案将研究纳入其培训内容，并大力利用现有的成功培训举措。

This proposal offers to teams Mississippi State University?s (MSU) Southeast Region Regional Forensics Training Center and its Center for Critical Infrastructure Protection with collaborators at Auburn University and Tuskegee University to provide tactical level occupational training to America?s veterans by collaborating with the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) and offering no-cost training at or near VA hospitals. The proposal requests funding to support the enhancement of an existing digital forensics curriculum and then eventually installing it within the Veterans Administration system nation-wide. The proposal addresses a recognized and documented workforce need for skilled cyber infrastructure employees and offers to address this need by training a diverse community. The proposal builds on the combined capabilities of MSU, Auburn, and Tuskegee. MSU and Auburn are both National Centers of Academic Excellence in Information Assurance Education (CAE/IAE) and Tuskegee is currently pursuing that certification. The proposal integrates research into its training offering and strongly leverages an existing successful training initiative.
