Dear Space Enthusiast,
As a part of the Space Foundation family, I’m very excited to share with you the launch of Space Foundation’s Center for Innovation and Education.
 
Space has never been more important. It unites and inspires people around the globe, and the Center for Innovation and Education is committed to helping everyone find their place in the space economy. As unemployment continues to rise and educational institutions remain closed, this mission is even more critical.
 
The Center for Innovation and Education addresses the innovation and workforce gap that the space economy is faced with by creating and delivering inclusive, innovative, and sustainable workforce development and economic opportunity programs to supply the rapidly growing global space economy.
The Center follows five core disciplines designed to combat the obstacles to building a qualified space workforce:
  1. Awareness of space’s impact and economic opportunity;
  2. Access to jobs, careers and business ventures for all people;
  3. Training for lifelong learning of sustainable skills;
  4. Connections to a vast space network of people, businesses and resources; and,
  5. Mentorship of young leaders to be next-generation role models.

We are so excited to be moving forward with you, providing resources, connections, and programs that unite us all, and allow everyone to find their place in space.

If you’d like to learn more about the Center for Innovation and Education, you can view our press release, or visit SpaceFoundation.org/cie and register for on-demand access to a complimentary detailed e-book at SpaceFoundation.org/cie-ebook.

Because of your support of the Space Foundation, we’ve been able to make a difference to the space community worldwide. With our new Center for Innovation and Education, the Space Foundation’s mission will endure for future generations and create even more opportunity to come. I welcome your involvement with those efforts and the difference we can all make together.
Sincerely,

Tom Zelibor, Rear Admiral, USN (Ret.)
