The National Center for Manufacturing Education (NCME) in
partnership with the TAC/ABET accredited Quality Engineering
Technology Department at Sinclair Community College has
received a National Science Foundation Advanced Technology
Education (NSF-ATE) grant to develop and test a hybrid instructional
delivery system. The primary objective of the grant
is to evaluate the effectiveness of this delivery
method in increasing the number of participants
in manufacturing related programs.
Consisting of shared online
distance learning components and hands-on experiences
at individual sites (nodes), OnsiteOnline allows
participants in the pilot test to earn a short term
technical certificate in Continuous Process Improvement
(CPI) from Sinclair Community College in Dayton,
OH.
