South Florida State College (SFSC) is a comprehensive community college and a Hispanic-Serving Institution (HSI) located in Highlands County, Florida. This project intends to create curriculum and academic experiences, recruit students, and prepare students for contemporary virtualized information technology (IT) through its Associate of Science (AS) in Network Systems Technology. The new curriculum has the potential to enable AS students to earn a specialization in Network Virtualization. The project team plans to integrate faculty, student, industry, and vendor contributions into a replicable model for educating IT students to be network technicians working on remote virtualization platforms. The project will develop and implement a curriculum that extends prior work in developing a networking virtualization certificate. All of the components of the AS in Networking program will be directly or indirectly effected by the virtualization strategy. The proposed project plans to increase enrollment in the AS in Network Systems Technology and potentially increase the technician workforce of network virtualization.The goals of the project are to (1) provide AS Network Systems Technology students with ongoing, remote, and convenient access to Virtual Machine hosting platforms; (2) reduce the unsustainable cost of maintaining rapidly decaying or out-of-date on-campus lab hardware; (3) provide a project and system management learning experience in virtualization for students; and (4) disseminate the project implementation strategy to other community colleges in the Florida State College System through presentations at the annual Association of Florida Colleges conference. The project team plans to incorporate virtualization and virtual lab environments in eight existing courses and develop six new courses in virtualization and virtualization support. The instructional faculty will be trained in the new virtualization platforms. The project aims to strengthen industry partnerships and include industry inputs into the curriculum development. This project is funded by the Advanced Technological Education program that focuses on the education of technicians for the advanced-technology fields that drive the Nation's economy.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.

南佛罗里达州立学院（SFSC）是一所综合性社区学院，也是一所位于佛罗里达高地县的西班牙裔服务机构（HSI）。该项目旨在创建课程和学术经验，招收学生，并通过其网络系统技术科学副学士（AS）为学生准备当代虚拟化信息技术（IT）。新课程有可能使AS学生获得网络虚拟化专业化。项目团队计划将教师、学生、行业和供应商的贡献整合到一个可复制的模型中，以教育IT学生成为在远程虚拟化平台上工作的网络技术人员。该项目将开发和实施一个课程，扩展以前在开发网络虚拟化证书方面的工作。AS in Networking计划的所有组件都将直接或间接地受到虚拟化策略的影响。该项目计划增加AS网络系统技术的招生人数，并可能增加网络虚拟化的技术人员队伍。该项目的目标是：（1）为AS网络系统技术的学生提供持续、远程和方便的虚拟机托管平台访问;（2）降低维护快速老化或过时的校园实验室硬件的不可持续的成本;（3）为学生提供虚拟化方面的项目和系统管理学习体验;以及（4）通过在佛罗里达学院协会年度会议上的演示，向佛罗里达州立学院系统中的其他社区学院传播项目实施策略。该项目团队计划将虚拟化和虚拟实验室环境纳入八门现有课程，并开发六门虚拟化和虚拟化支持方面的新课程。教学人员将接受新虚拟化平台的培训。该项目旨在加强行业伙伴关系，并将行业投入纳入课程编制。该项目由先进技术教育计划资助，该计划侧重于推动国家经济的先进技术领域的技术人员的教育。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
