## What the grant funds

This grant will go to fund an organization to train Japanese educators on how to create curriculum focused on training students to be successful in STEM fields critical to the modern international economy, with a specific focus on the semiconductor industry. This will consist of a two-day in-person workshop in Japan focused on how educational institutions can coordinate with and develop curriculum that serves the need of high-tech manufacturers. The workshop will cover topics such as: establishing technical courses that meet industries’ needs, business and process management in tech, effective coordination with manufacturers and government, and developing security processes to prevent illicit technology transfer. The workshop should also include a discussion of DEIA principles in tech in the U.S. today, especially the role of promoting gender equality. The program should also include a one or two-day preliminary online workshop held several months before the in-person workshop in which Japanese educational institutions, government officials, and representatives from industry are given the opportunity to help shape the training by doing a self-assessment on their needs and receiving information from American educational institutions on what they are doing to meet the needs of modern industry.
