Quantum computing and quantum information science and engineering is one of the most critical and emerging worldwide technological fields. The importance of both the quantum research endeavors and the equally important training of a quantum-ready workforce were stressed in the National Quantum Initiative Act of 2019. This workshop brings together researchers and administrators from the Established Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (EPSCoR) states and territories to identify how their institutions can better contribute to field of quantum computing and quantum information science and engineering. The workshop involves attendees learning about the current state of select quantum computing and quantum information science and engineering topics. The workshop has two main Intellectual Merit goals. First, it seeks to provide a platform for collaborative research. Also, the workshop aims to act as a litmus test to determine the state of affairs related to quantum computing and quantum information science and engineering within the EPSCoR states and jurisdictions. The broader impact of this workshop is to facilitate academic institutions to better understand why they should and examples of how they might contribute to the education of their undergraduate and graduate students for entry into the quantum ready workforce. This workshop will directly impact over 50 attendees. By learning about other quantum researchers and institutions, it is expected that organically new and stronger collaborations will emerge to realize the vision of the National Quantum Initiative Act and the vision of the Established Program to Stimulate Competitive Research. The tangible outcome of the workshop in the form of a publicly available report will on its own have potential to have an enormous impact not only on the current quantum computing and quantum information science and engineering researchers but also on the next generation of researchers that look for guidance and reassurances.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

量子计算和量子信息科学与工程是世界范围内最关键和最新兴的技术领域之一。 2019年的《国家量子倡议法案》强调了量子研究工作的重要性以及对量子就绪劳动力的同等重要的培训。 该研讨会汇集了来自刺激竞争研究（EPSCoR）国家和地区的研究人员和管理人员，以确定他们的机构如何更好地为量子计算和量子信息科学与工程领域做出贡献。 该研讨会涉及与会者了解选定的量子计算和量子信息科学与工程主题的现状。该研讨会有两个主要的智力价值目标。首先，它旨在为合作研究提供一个平台。此外，该研讨会旨在作为试金石，以确定EPSCoR州和司法管辖区内与量子计算和量子信息科学与工程相关的事态。本次研讨会的更广泛的影响是促进学术机构更好地理解为什么他们应该以及他们如何为本科生和研究生的教育做出贡献的例子，以便进入量子就绪的劳动力市场。 本次研讨会将直接影响50多名与会者。 通过了解其他量子研究人员和机构，预计将出现有机的新的和更强大的合作，以实现国家量子倡议法案的愿景和刺激竞争性研究的既定计划的愿景。本次研讨会以公开报告的形式所取得的实际成果本身就有可能不仅对当前的量子计算和量子信息科学与工程研究人员产生巨大影响，而且对寻求指导和重新定位的下一代研究人员也会产生巨大影响。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并被认为值得通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准。
