Specifically it is asking about:
The types of technical positions for which hiring is most difficult
The deadline for replies is August 15th,
NIST says the replies pcould affect government support for the chip industry in providing “enhanced support for K-12, undergraduate, and graduate STEM education (with a particular focus on semiconductor technology), targeted technical training, internship and apprenticeship programs, and cooperative education programs,” according to NIST’s request for information.
The initiative was triggered by President Trump’s 2017 National Security Strategy
