This project features interrelated activities designed to: broaden the impact of community college leadership in STEM education; encourage greater numbers of community colleges to develop ATE-related programs; create and support venues for developing and nurturing STEM professional and leadership development opportunities; and disseminate the value, resources, and accomplishments of the ATE program. The project is building upon AACC's previous successful efforts and supporting: 1. Three National ATE Principal Investigators Conferences in 2014, 2015, and 2016; 2. Expanded access to ATE PI Conference content through a series of four online workshops developed by filming select ATE pre-conference workshops in 2014 and 2015; 3. Continuation of the AACC MentorLinks program to help 10 community colleges establish new programs or strengthen existing programs in STEM fields; 4. AACC project briefs highlighting the outcomes of the MentorLinks program; 5. Three STEM leadership development webinars designed to engage emerging and seasoned community college leaders as part of AACC's "Trends and Issues in Leadership" webinar series; and 6. Dissemination of ATE program resources, information, and impact through presentations, feature stories, web site, conference proceedings, and the use of social media technologies.The activities have strong intellectual merit to advance knowledge and understanding of various STEM disciplines and the strategies used to build and strengthen STEM programs. They are enriching and expanding the current network of institutions working at the forefront of technological education reform; supporting and expanding that network through professional development and mentoring programs that provide venues for identifying promising strategies and lessons learned; cultivating new community college STEM leaders and advocates through leadership development and STEM awareness opportunities; disseminating information and resources generated by the ATE community to grow and strengthen STEM technician education nationally; and promoting the value, impact, and national significance of the community college leadership role in technician education.The project activities are helping community college leaders make the important connections and partnerships necessary to build and sustain STEM programs. The networking and professional enrichment leads to numerous interactions among participants, involving the sharing of materials and curriculum, exchange visits to campuses, and collaborative activities including joint proposals to advance the field. The activities are: helping to strengthen and expand the ATE community to meet the increasing demand for a trained technical workforce; playing a critical role in addressing the national student completion agenda in STEM fields; and facing the challenges of maintaining U.S. global competitiveness.

本项目包括相关活动，旨在：扩大社区大学在STEM教育中的领导力影响；鼓励更多的社区学院发展与ate相关的项目；创建和支持发展和培养STEM专业和领导力发展机会的场所；传播ATE项目的价值、资源和成就。该项目是建立在AACC以前的成功努力和支持之上的：2014年、2015年、2016年三次全国ATE首席研究员会议；2. 通过拍摄2014年和2015年选定的ATE会前研讨会，通过一系列四个在线研讨会扩大对ATE PI会议内容的访问；3. 继续AACC MentorLinks项目，帮助10所社区学院在STEM领域建立新项目或加强现有项目；4. AACC项目简报，重点介绍“导师链接”计划的成果；5. 三场STEM领导力发展网络研讨会，旨在吸引新兴和经验丰富的社区大学领导者，作为AACC“领导力趋势和问题”网络研讨会系列的一部分；和6。通过演讲、专题报道、网站、会议记录和使用社会媒体技术传播ATE项目资源、信息和影响。这些活动具有很强的智力价值，可以促进对各种STEM学科的认识和理解，以及用于建立和加强STEM项目的策略。他们正在丰富和扩大目前在技术教育改革前沿工作的机构网络；通过专业发展和指导项目支持和扩大这一网络，为确定有前途的战略和经验教训提供场所；通过领导力发展和STEM意识机会培养新的社区学院STEM领导者和倡导者；传播由ATE社区产生的信息和资源，以发展和加强全国的STEM技术人员教育；促进社区学院在技师教育中的领导作用的价值、影响和国家意义。这些项目活动正在帮助社区大学的领导人建立重要的联系和伙伴关系，以建立和维持STEM项目。网络和专业的丰富导致参与者之间的大量互动，包括分享材料和课程，交换访问校园，以及合作活动，包括共同提出推进该领域的建议。这些活动包括：帮助加强和扩大ATE社区，以满足对训练有素的技术人员日益增长的需求；在解决STEM领域的国家学生完成议程方面发挥关键作用；面对保持美国全球竞争力的挑战。
