  1. Sinclair Community College • Five physical locations across Southwestern Ohio. • Currently serving over 25,000 credit and 14,600 non-credit individuals (making SCC one of the largest community colleges in the country). • Serves 4,500 students per term with over 200 on-line course offerings. • Out of 1,200 community colleges in the nation, Sinclair is one of 19 Board Member Colleges in the Community College’s League of Innovation.

  2. Sinclair Workforce Development Mission Statement Sinclair Workforce Development partnersto meet the workforce learning needs of individuals, employers and the communitythrough an array of innovative, high-value, customer-focused programs and services.

  3. Focus for Workforce Development • Employers - Providing training and consulting services. • Continuing Education – Providing non-credit training for industry certifications, business credentials, skills building and professional development. • Economic Development – Partnering within the region. • Employees and Displaced Workers - Providing retraining for emerging and growth industries. Includes initiatives such as our Defense Acquisition Academy (DAA).

  4. Sinclair Workforce Development Facts • Provided training to over 266 companies in 2011 • Worked with 43 of the Dayton Business Journal’s top 50 Employers • Enrolled 14,600 people in non-credit training offerings in 2010

  5. Defense Acquisition Academy • As a Certified Equivalent Provider of Defense Acquisition University (DAU) courses, Sinclair’s DAA courses reflect the training requirements for DAWIA Level I Certifications • DAA provides Acquisition and Contracting training on regulations and best practices to contracting and technical personnel from the DoD and federal agencies • While designed and taught from the DoD perspective, government contractors also find our DAA courses useful in understanding the regulations and the language used in our federal acquisition system

  6. The Intent of DAA • Build additional capacity to train the region’s future acquisitions workers, and to provide displaced workers with skills that will prepare them for re-employment in high value jobs • Provide a global learning environment, in alignment with DAU’s purpose, to support a mission-ready Defense Acquisition Workforce that develops, delivers, and sustains effective and affordable war-fighting capabilities • Offer expert professional training in the fields of Contracts, Acquisition, Logistics, Program Management, Systems Engineering, Science & Technology, and Facilities Engineering • Provide an understanding of how the government does business that would then, in turn, create additional efficiencies that would reduce cost during the acquisition process with the federal government

  7. DAA Program Overview • Most DAA courses are delivered in an online format • Program tracks (sequence of courses) are aligned specifically to the Federal (DAU) version of these courses (where enrollment is typically restricted to active duty military and currently employed civil service personnel) • All DAA classes are certified by the American Council on Education (ACE)

  8. DAA Course Format • Individuals now may select and enroll in individual DAA courses or entire level 1 program tracks • Individual, self-paced online courses can be completed in 6 weeks or less • Program track can be completed in 12 weeks or less • All DAA courses are led by expert instructors • New online sessions begin monthly • Students receive Certification of Completion with passing scores

  9. Program Requirements Closely aligned with the hiring criteria of WPAFB, enrollment in DAA is restricted to individuals meeting the following criteria: • Have a Bachelor’s Degree • Be a United States citizen • Be able to pass a background &/or security investigation

  22. DAA/ATIC Partnership Offering Intelligence, Surveillance & Reconnaissance Program • The ISR track provides a broad overview of the DoD acquisition processes and logistics fundamentals before focusing on ISR issues, data, and sensors, as well as topics specific to the Intelligence Community aspects of defense acquisitions

  23. What is Acquisition Intelligence? • According the Air Force Material Command (AFMC), Acq Intel involves the Intelligence Community collaborating with acquisition programs to discover and fulfill intel requirements as early as possible. • Ultimately, Acq Intel means planning for intelligence supportability throughout the entire lifecycle of a program.

  24. The Need for Acq Intel Professionals • The increasing use of technology in our weapon systems has forced a transformation in the relationship between intelligence and acquisition • Where intelligence once primarily provided threat studies to inform acquisitions, intelligence is now a fully-integrated partner with engineers, software designers, and communications specialists throughout the acquisition lifecycle • As a result, the U.S. government has identified a pressing need to grow the unique blend of acquisition and ISR skills in the workforce

  25. Roles of the Acq Intel Professionals • Rapidly assess program characteristics for ISR needs and recommend effective courses of action (COAs) • Apply intelligence across acquisition lifecycle • Engage in early systems engineering and analysis activities • Synchronize Intelligence Community production with program needs and timelines • Identify technology or capability driven issues that will impact operational employment • Reduce cost, schedule and performance risk

  26. Benefits of the ISR Track • Focus on current issues, data and sensors • Intelligence-specific aspects of defense acquisitions • Taught by experts in industry, government and academia • Professional development and enhanced marketability in your career path • Sponsorship for Secret level U.S. security clearance

  27. Security Clearance • Students not already holding a government security clearance will be submitted for a Secret security clearance through the U.S. government   • Security clearances can only be granted by the government sponsoring agency • No guarantee that an individual will be approved • ATIC staff will provide guidance on process, but the individual is responsible for all necessary paperwork completion and meeting submission deadlines
