Three community colleges are collaborating with an area four-year college to educate and prepare students from low-income and underrepresented communities to compete for the many documented high-tech, high-paying information technology (IT) jobs. This goal is achieved by accomplishing the following objectives: (1) Increasing recruitment of students from local communities into associate and undergraduate programs in computer networking; (2) Increasing collaboration with industry and governmental agencies through capstone projects, internships and workshops; and (3) Integrating industry standard simulation tools into the networking curriculum to improve the quality and scope of the education provided. Expected outcomes of this project are: (1) Increasing the overall recruitment of students into computer networking programs at each participating institution by 10% each year, and the number of women students in all participating institutions by at least 10 (double the current total) within a three year period; (2) Developing 15 capstone projects in collaboration with industry and governmental agencies; (3) Placing a minimum of 50 students into summer internship positions in industry and governmental agencies; (4) Increasing the number of students being placed into IT jobs by 10% each year; (5) Attaining 80% student satisfaction with the use of simulation tools in networking courses; and (6) Highlighting three employer sponsored networking capstone projects using simulation tools each year at the capstone festival.

三所社区大学正在与一所地区四年制大学合作，教育和培养来自低收入和代表性不足社区的学生，使他们能够竞争许多有记录的高科技、高薪信息技术（IT）工作。这一目标是通过实现以下目标来实现的：(1)增加从当地社区招收学生进入计算机网络专业的大专和本科课程；(2)通过顶点项目、实习和研讨会，加强与行业和政府机构的合作；(3)将行业标准仿真工具整合到网络课程中，以提高所提供教育的质量和范围。该项目的预期成果是：(1)在三年内，各参与机构计算机网络专业的学生总数每年增加10%，所有参与机构的女学生人数至少增加10人（目前总数的两倍）；(2)与工业和政府机构合作开发15个顶点项目；(3)安排至少50名学生在行业和政府机构进行暑期实习；(4)每年增加10%的学生从事信息技术工作；(5)在网络课程中使用模拟工具的学生满意度达到80%；(6)每年在顶点节上突出三个雇主赞助的使用模拟工具的网络顶点项目。
