Wadhwani Foundation Race to a Job Initiative

I recently met with James Jones, and he suggested that I connect with you to discuss the Wadhwani Foundation’s Race to a Job initiative.  

We are a private, philanthropic foundation based in California and India.  Our foundation is currently working on building hybrid online training modules for cyber security programs, using new kinds of education technology, such as animations, simulations and interactive games and innovative pedagogical approaches, such as the flipped course model.  The model includes a pre-class, in-class and post-class module.  

We currently have a pilot running at Anne Arundel Community College and are connecting with potential new training partners in California.  Our new partners can use these modules for their own cyber security program and or for related programs.  We would like to provide the modules we are building in Maryland to our new California partners and would like feedback regarding content that should be added to these modules from our new partners in California.  

Our initiative is in the pilot phase between now and March of 2015, so we will be providing these modules free of cost to new partners.  I would like to schedule a time to talk to you about entering into a potential training partnership agreement with us during this pilot phase.   Please contact me for our presentation, draft partnership agreement and additional information. 

Thank you.
