This project features six interrelated activities that advance community college leadership in STEM education, encourage more community colleges to develop ATE-related programs, and promote the value, accomplishments, and impact of the ATE program. The activities build upon the successes of previous efforts supported by the National Science Foundation, and include: three National ATE Principal Investigators Conferences in 2011, 2012, 2013, improved access to ATE PI Conference presentations and materials through a conference blog, YouTube channel, video and audio downloads, and webinars, continuation of the MentorLinks program with an additional 10 community colleges establishing new programs or strengthening existing programs in STEM fields, a project brief focusing on the outcomes of the MentorLinks program, a series of student video profiles highlighting 10 ATE students and their accomplishments, and increased dissemination of information about ATE programs and their impact through presentations, feature stories, web site, and the use of social media technologies. The impact of these activities is helping community college leaders to make the important connections and partnerships necessary to build and sustain their STEM programs. The activities are helping to expand, shape, and focus the future of the ATE program as it positions itself to meet the increasing demand for a trained technical workforce amid the challenges of maintaining U.S. competitiveness in a global economy.

该项目的特点是六个相互关联的活动，推动社区学院在STEM教育中的领导地位，鼓励更多的社区学院开发ATE相关项目，并促进ATE项目的价值，成就和影响。这些活动建立在国家科学基金会支持的先前努力的成功基础上，包括：2011年、2012年和2013年的三次国家ATE主要研究者会议，通过会议博客、YouTube频道、视频和音频下载以及网络研讨会，改善了对ATE PI会议演示文稿和材料的访问，继续MentorLinks计划，增加10所社区学院，在STEM领域建立新项目或加强现有项目，重点介绍MentorLinks计划的成果，一系列学生视频简介，突出了10个ATE学生和他们的成就，并通过演示文稿，专题报道，网站和使用社交媒体技术增加了有关ATE计划及其影响的信息传播。这些活动的影响是帮助社区学院的领导者建立必要的重要联系和伙伴关系，以建立和维持他们的STEM计划。这些活动有助于扩大，塑造和关注ATE计划的未来，因为它定位于满足在保持美国在全球经济中的竞争力的挑战中对训练有素的技术劳动力日益增长的需求。
