| Document Title: | Standard Practice for Workforce Education in Nanotechnology Characterization |
| url: | http://compass.astm.org/EDIT/html_annot.cgi?E3001+15 |
| Scope: | This practice describes a procedure to provide the basic education of characterization methods for nanometer-scale materials, to be taught at an undergraduate college level. This education should be broad and include a suite of characterization methods to prepare an individual to work in various capacities within one of the many areas in nanotechnology research, development, or manufacturing. |
| Keywords: | characterization; nano; nanoscale materials; workforce education |
| Type of Document: | a. Standard |
| Issues Areas: | Measurement and Characterizations |
| Primary Category: | |
| Additional Categories | Education and workforce training |
| Goal or Need: | This practice is intended to be one in a series of standards developed for workforce education in various aspects of nanotechnology. It will assist in providing an organization a basic structure for developing a program applicable to many areas in nanotechnology, thus providing dynamic and evolving workforce education.Workers may transition in their roles in the workplace. Participants in such education will have a broad understanding of a complement of characterization methods, thus increasing their marketability for jobs within as well as beyond the nanotechnology field. |
| Intended Stakeholders: | Students and workers in nanotechnology; educators in nanotechnology; employers in nanotechnology-related research, development, and manufacturing. |
| Is it Being Implemented: | |
