Our team plays a key leadership role in Ohio’s Broadband and 5G Workforce strategy, serving on the Sector Partnership Management Team housed at the 5G-OH Broadband and 5G Connectivity Center. We contribute across all project areas, including outreach, workforce entry, data evaluation, and education and training.

Specifically, we lead the curriculum and program development working group, analyzing the technical skills needed in the workforce, evaluating curriculum materials, and providing instructor support.

We also serve as the university partner for program implementation in the Central Ohio region.
