Florida's Summer Industrial Fellowships for Teachers (SIFT) is a program designed to provide Florida school teachers with a summer working and learning experience within industry, utilizing high tech skills and applications where practical. The SIFT program helps educators adapt to the ever changing technological society that their students will face, by offering non-traditional learning and working opportunities within industry. These experiences enhance the teachers' skills and their understanding of evolving workplace requirements. Since its incorporation in 1990, SIFT has provided summer work experiences to more than five hundred teachers, from more than forty schools, thereby influencing tens of thousands of students who will be the productive members of the future workforce.
