Thisinformation should be invaluable to those developing curricula and designing and deliveringcontinuing professional development for engineers.IntroductionThe need for CEE has been well-documented [1]. Continuing education is critical for workingengineers because of the breadth of processes and equipment they design and use and because ofrapid changes in technology [2].

The riseof digital manufacturing and the reliance on these technologies to reduce development timewhile improving product design and quality has been exponentially increasing over the past fewyear [2]. The reliance on digital manufacturing by industry has grown as high performancecomputing technology evolves. Recognizing the far reaching implications of this technology onresearch, several government programs in the 1980’s and 1990’s promoted the growth of highperformance computing. Today, programs such as XSEDE promote the use of high performancecomputing to conduct research in multiple fields such as engineering by supporting scholars andresearchers in using these computational resources [3

The Graduate School ensures fee-basedprograms do not compete with traditional on-campus programs. This latter point is seldom anissue as most students wishing to participate in on-campus programs are residential andanticipate a traditional experience. Alternatively, most student s who participate in non-traditional weekend programs are already in the professional ranks and not able to participate ina traditional program format.

Knowledge and learner centered.  Go public: This is a high stakes motivating component introduced to motivate the faculty/student to do well. This step is where the faculty/student is asked to provide solutions and insights for learning to the next cohort of faculty/students, as well as to the instructor(s) and is termed “Leaving Legacies” and hence the name of the cycle.
