Camosun College is opening the doors to its Technology Access Centre, which will be named Island Technology Access Centre, ITAC. This Centre was made possible by a generous 5 year grant awarded to the College by the National Sciences and Research Council of Canada. The NSERC supported Island Technology Access Centre, at Camosun College, will address a recognized need with in-house expertise and infrastructure. It will become a key player in the regions ability to innovate and deliver significant economic impact with a sustainable business approach. ITAC will complement the colleges academic offerings with a suite of industry services that will fill the gaps in the local innovation environment. It will enhance local SMEs ability to innovate, reduce their product development time, and provide them with access to faculty expertise, advanced manufacturing equipment, prototyping capabilities, and access to applied research funding and infrastructure that they would otherwise not have at their disposal. The TAC at Camosun will provide a full spectrum of technical services including; 1) prototype design and development, 2) sensor and electronic device development, 3) textiles and technical garment testing, 4) human performance technology development, 5) environmental technology, 6) wireless protocol/device integration, 7) health sciences. ITAC will build on the problem solving and client collaboration approach developed by SPIN and VICAMP. This TAC will be the home to professional turn-key services.

卡莫森学院正在向其技术接入中心敞开大门，该中心将被命名为岛屿技术接入中心，简称ITAC。该中心是由加拿大国家科学和研究理事会授予学院的一笔为期5年的慷慨赠款而建立的。位于卡莫森学院的NSERC支持的岛屿技术获取中心将利用内部专门知识和基础设施满足公认的需求。它将成为区域创新能力的关键参与者，并通过可持续的商业方法产生重大经济影响。 ITAC将用一套行业服务来补充学院的学术课程，这些服务将填补当地创新环境的空白。这将增强本地中小企业的创新能力，缩短其产品开发时间，并为它们提供获得教师专业知识、先进制造设备、原型制造能力以及应用研究资金和基础设施的机会，否则它们将无法使用这些资金和基础设施。 Camosun的TAC将提供全方位的技术服务，包括：1)原型设计和开发，2)传感器和电子设备开发，3)纺织品和技术服装测试，4)人体性能技术开发，5)环境技术，6)无线协议/设备集成，7)健康科学。ITAC将建立在SPIN和VICAMP开发的解决问题和客户协作方法的基础上。这个TAC将成为专业交钥匙服务的大本营。
