Learn how to develop your quantum workforce with reskilling and upskilling
Quantum technicians perform critical functions, including system and component fabrication, assembly, characterization, testing, operation, and maintenance. Demand is expected to grow as the industry continues its rapid development, and there is a clear need to start developing this workforce now.
Currently available for QED-C members only, this report makes recommendations for reskilling and upskilling a workforce of quantum technicians.
QED-C seeks nominations for Steering Committee representatives from Tier 1 Corporate Participants by November 17, 2023. QED-C especially encourages candidates from under-represented groups.
Subscribe today to the new QED-C podcast: Been there, done that. This conversational podcast offers a candid journey into launching and growing a business in this emerging industry. Episode 1 will launch on November 7!
At this hybrid event, you’ll join fellow QED-C members as we celebrate 2023 wins and set the stage for our 2024 activities. We will hear from speakers on topics chosen by and relevant to you, and shape the conversation on some of the most pressing issues facing the quantum industry throughout its supply chain. Registration is required for in-person and virtual attendance
QB101 aims to help members navigate the business of growing a business. This webinar will bring expert experience in both waterfall and agile product development processes together to talk about the optimal approaches for team building and system development, when one must make these agile versus waterfall choices, and more importantly, for those cases where one must hybridize the systems, choosing the best elements of both while avoiding the conflicts inherent between these different mentalities.
Join to hear curated presentations from quantum student/post-doc researchers at top universities, followed by a Q&A. This event is a great place to spot quantum talent entering the workforce. November’s presentation topics focus on trapped ions and quantum control.
Interested in a career in quantum information science and technology (QIST) or learning more about this emerging technology? The QED-C Office Hours program offers students the opportunity to meet one-on-one with current practitioners in QIST. Register today for the November session. Registration closed November 28.
Bringing international talent onto your research teams
October 17 | 11:00 am - 12:15 pm EDT Member event
In this webinar we explored the unique workforce challenges facing your business, from competition with tech giants to visa law hurdles for foreign-born talent. Presenters included Hilary Hartley of the Institute for International Education, Barbara Leen of Microsoft, and Amy Nice, an immigration law and policy expert with a distinguished STEM immigration background.
Quantum Marketplace®: Metrology and control for quantum computing
October 5 | 11:00 am - 12:15 pm EDT Public event
We heard from experts throughout the value chain on various approaches to metrology and control for superconducting quantum computing platform technologies.
Intensity-Squeezed Photonic Integration for Revolutionary Detectors (INSPIRED)
The DARPA Microsystems Technology Office is soliciting innovative research proposals to develop compact optical detectors with sensitivity below the quantum shot noise limit. The principal objective of the Intensity-Squeezed Photonic Integration for Revolutionary Detectors (INSPIRED) program is the development of optoelectronic detector modules that integrate squeezed-light measurement techniques into form factors comparable to commercial photodetector modules, thereby achieving sensitivity significantly beyond the quantum shot-noise limit.
