Phase 1: From Vision to Evidence

A focused 12-month pilot designed to test, measure, learn, and strengthen the JF 11 workforce model.

JF 11 Phase 1 is being developed as an initial implementation period for practical AI, cybersecurity, digital skills, and workforce-readiness programming delivered through qualified partnerships. During this proposed 12-month period, JF 11 intends to test delivery approaches, measure learning, gather partner and participant feedback, and use those findings to strengthen future programming.

Phase 1 at a Glance

Focused Targets. Controlled implementation. Measurable learning.

50–150 participants

Targeted participation across initial Phase 1 learning experiences.

6–10 pilots

Structured workshops, cohorts, or partner-enabled learning experiences.

5–8 partners

Education, technology, workforce, nonprofit, community, and other qualified collaborators.

12 months implementation period

A defined period to build, test, measure, learn, and refine.

***These figures represent Phase 1 planning targets and may be refined as qualified partners, delivery models, funding, and participant needs are confirmed.***

A Controlled Path From Design to Learning

Our structured four-stage framework ensures each pilot yields measurable impact, practical skills, and clear pathways to continuous improvement.

01 — Design

Define participant needs, learning objectives, partner roles, delivery requirements, and proposed measures.

02 — Pilot

Launch focused workshops, cohorts, or partner-hosted learning experiences with manageable participant groups.

03 — Measure

Collect appropriate participation, completion, feedback, learning, and partner-performance information.

04 — Learn & Refine

Use evidence and partner feedback to improve program design, delivery, accessibility, and future implementation.

Measuring More than Participation

Phase 1 is intended to help JF 11 understand not only how many people participate, but whether the model is practical, accessible, useful, and capable of supporting meaningful learning and workforce progression.

Participation & learning

We track essential enrollment, attendance, active engagement, and completion metrics, alongside measurable shifts in practical knowledge, awareness, confidence, and demonstrated skills.

Workforce Progression

Establishing meaningful pathways through connections to credentials, structured career exploration, workforce resources, dedicated mentors, industry employers, and actionable next-step opportunities.

Access & Inclusion

Identifying and breaking down barriers to participation through improved technology access, individualized participant supports, and proactive accessibility considerations across all cohorts.

Quality & Partner Experience

Gathering direct partner feedback, delivery effectiveness insights, instructor observations, and consistency checks to address implementation challenges and refine ongoing program design.

Phase 1 is Designed For Partnership

JF 11 does not need to build every capability internally. Phase 1 is designed around qualified organizations contributing complementary expertise, technology, instruction, workforce connections, community reach, participant support, and other capabilities.

Education and Training Partners

Curriculum, instruction, credentials, and high-impact learning resources tailored to emerging technology careers.

Technology Partners

Platforms, tools, specialized lab environments, software licenses, and dedicated subject-matter expertise.

Workforce and Employer Partners

Career exposure, mentoring, active workforce connections, and direct industry insight for participant readiness.

Community and Veteran-Serving Partners

Participant reach, local community knowledge, supportive resources, and trusted referral pathways.

Help Build the Evidence

Phase 1 is intended to create a practical foundation for learning what works, strengthening partnerships, improving program design, and informing responsible future growth.
