RELATIONSHIP WITH BOSSIER PARISH COMMUNITY COLLEGE

Celebrating Our Partnership with BPCC:

A Commitment to Strengthening Digital Fluency

We were proud to collaborate with Bossier Parish Community College (BPCC) as we led the Digital Education and Training for Enhanced Readiness (DETER) project for Air Force Global Strike Command (AFGSC). While the DETER project is currently on hold, the groundwork laid with BPCC has prepared us well for potential resumption.Our partnership with BPCC was a cornerstone of our efforts to enhance digital fluency among action officers at Headquarters AFGSC. BPCC’s expertise and innovative approach to education were instrumental in the initial stages of developing the modular digital courses intended to be central to our training initiative.

Collaborative Efforts: BPCC’s expertise in digital education and curriculum development proved invaluable as we began shaping the curriculum. Although the project was put on hold before we could launch our first official course, the foundational work completed has set a framework for potential future courses. These preparatory steps were designed to accommodate varying levels of difficulty, ensuring that all officers, regardless of their prior digital knowledge, would receive the training necessary to excel in their roles.

Reflections on Future Horizons: We remain hopeful that we can continue our collaboration in the future, possibly expanding our efforts to include more comprehensive programs that integrate cutting-edge digital tools and analytics techniques. This partnership underscored our commitment to fostering an environment of continuous learning and adaptation, crucial for meeting the challenges of tomorrow’s digital landscape.
