SUMMARY:Data Analytics Program in Community Colleges in Preparation for ST
 EM and HPC Careers
DESCRIPTION:Elizabeth Bautista (Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBN
 L), National Energy Research Scientific Computing Center (NERSC)) and Niti
 n Sukhija (Slippery Rock University of Pennsylvania)\n\nStudents in commun
 ity colleges are either interested in a quick degree or a skill that allow
 s them to enter into a career area while minimizing debt. Attending a four
 -year university can be a challenge, and acceptance can be competitive.\n\
 nThe job market is challenged to hire and retain diverse staff especially 
 within High Performance Computing (HPC) or a government laboratory. Higher
  salaries, potentially better benefits, or opportunities for remote work a
 re contributing factors for this industry.\n\nTo encourage interest in HPC
 , NERSC partnered with Laney College to create a Data Analytics Program. O
 nce Laney faculty learn how to teach the classes toward a certificate prog
 ram, they fill a need for their students to build the skill in data analyt
 ics toward a career or to continue toward a four-year degree as transfer s
 tudents.\n\nWe describe how NERSC partners with Laney to create a pipeline
  toward a data analytics career.\n\nTag: Education, State of the Practice\
 n\nRegistration Category: Workshop Reg Pass\n\nSession Chairs: Evguenia Al
 exandrova (Hartree Centre, STFC; Science and Technology Facilities Council
  (STFC)); Scott Lathrop (University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign); Julie M
 ullen (Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Lincoln Laboratory); a
 nd Nitin Sukhija (Slippery Rock University of Pennsylvania)\n\n
