A variety of factors, including the growing retirement eligibilityand “…the generational shift in the traditional utility workforce…”1 is having an adverse effecton the utility industry.According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor, 46.2 million baby boomers, 46.9 million generation xand 46.4 million millennials were employed in the fourth quarter of 2014. Baby boomers beganto reach retirement age, 65, in 20112. All baby boomers will be over 65 by 2029 and will makeup more than 20 percent of the U.S. population3.To get ahead of the curve, EASi partnered with one of the largest electric

. While believing strongly in the importance of this topic, the major reason given why more programs do not include leadership is that it is difficult to fit into the curriculum. With the rapid expansion of knowledge in all fields of engineering, and with the constraints on credit hours, leadership often takes a back seat. Those that are not providing leadership education are asking how this problem can be solved.It is clear that there is a need for leadership education for engineers based on requirements in themarketplace. A recent article in MarketWatch discusses this need.4 John Shinal writes in his column for MarketWatch /FINS (1/2), "Rather than focusing strictly on business acumen or technical skill, companies want top managers

resulted in identifying the need for combining course offerings ofa 4-year university and a nearby technical college. For the 4-year university, an associate ofscience degree requires a minimum of 60 credit hours (of which about half is university corecourses such as Composition, Algebra, and Social Science). A technical certificate requires aminimum of 18 hours. The number of hours for each program was determined by therequirements established by the institute’s governing body. Based on these constraints, thefollowing 2-year program was developed and approved by each institution’s curriculumcommittee, see Table 1.Table 1.

The benefit to the Student makes this project worthwhile even though project details cannot be disclosed in the classroom or a public forum. 2. The tradeoff between not being able to fully present the project to other students and participating in designing and building an innovative, expensive, state-of-the-art, one-of- a-kind machine must be weighed for each situation and evaluated. 3. No one foresaw the time required to iron out an agreement acceptable to both the School and the Company; however, the Student was able to continue participating on the Company’s design

One reason may be that the K-12 educational system has failed to engage or exposestudents to technical application or workplace skills either early or extensively enough, orarticulate high school students to 2- or 4-year manufacturing programs [1, 2]. Another reason isthat institutions of higher education (IHEs) often produce too few graduates to fulfill AMindustry demands, and many engineering technology graduates are not gaining the right skill setsfor available positions [3].

IoT tools and the data generated from them about individual learners can be used to create special content for students that could be sent to them directly on their tablets and smartphones or other devices. For example, a student whose preferred learning mode (say visual vs. audio) is known, can receive a personalized lesson in the preferred mode once they are identified through biometric identifier or an id reader. 172.

Some felt certain questions were too specific to a particular student, repetitive (either in this session or from previous years), or focused on social issues. Some felt the option to text in questions was unnecessary (see question 4 above), there was too much focus on jobs rather than graduate school, there were distracted students (asleep or on phones), and some of the responses were too generic.8.

The results provide an insight into thevarious ways in which students acclimated to the crisis circumstances. These adaptationsmanifested in the form of product and process adaptations, in which students swiftly adjustedtheir final product or design process to respond to the evolving crisis.
