The Boston Area Technological Education Connections (BATEC) is a well developed regionally coordinated system of high schools, community colleges, the University of Massachusetts at Boston and industry. Talented students from diverse backgrounds are attracted to information technology (IT) careers particularly in - programming, databases, analytics, and business intelligence. BATEC developed a sequence of industry driven and validated IT courses that articulate from high school through community college to a Bachelor of Science in Information Technology. The National Center extends and strengthens computing discipline pathways and industry connections to produce 21st century IT professionals. The work that the Regional Center is doing in defining the knowledge, skills and attitudes that IT technicians need to be technically and professionally successful in their employment is continued. Because IT is pervasive in every industry, this goal is extended to learn about and implement innovations that increase technicians' ability to work at the intersection of IT and other fields - such as manufacturing, energy management, law enforcement, and health. The National Center uses partnerships with urban districts in Las Vegas, San Francisco, and Chicago as learning laboratories to learn how to scale up the work done in Boston. The Center focuses on longer-term interventions that are collaborative with existing centers and new partners and conducts research that contributes to the continuous improvement of IT, CS and IS programs to keep up with regional and national needs.

波士顿地区技术教育联系（BATEC）是一个由高中、社区学院、波士顿的马萨诸塞州大学和工业界组成的发展良好的区域协调系统。来自不同背景的有才华的学生被信息技术（IT）职业所吸引，特别是编程，数据库，分析和商业智能。 BATEC开发了一系列行业驱动和验证的IT课程，从高中到社区大学，再到信息技术理学学士。 国家中心扩展和加强计算学科的途径和行业连接，以产生21世纪世纪的IT专业人员。 区域中心继续开展工作，确定IT技术人员在就业中取得技术和专业成功所需的知识、技能和态度。 由于IT在每个行业都很普遍，因此该目标扩展到了解和实施创新，以提高技术人员在IT和其他领域（如制造业、能源管理、执法和健康）交叉领域工作的能力。 国家中心利用与拉斯维加斯、弗朗西斯科和芝加哥城区的合作伙伴关系作为学习实验室，学习如何扩大在波士顿所做的工作。 该中心侧重于与现有中心和新合作伙伴合作的长期干预措施，并进行研究，以促进IT，CS和IS计划的持续改进，以满足区域和国家的需求。
