1 Building a Manufacturing Talent Pipeline Community College, Industry & MEP Partnerships Webinar, September 2014

2 Thank you

3 Overview National spotlight on industry-community college partnerships to fill skills gaps Robust models emerging: Sector-based (vs. company by company) State/regionally-based via college consortia Long-term relationships: not traditional advisory board mtg Needs addressed comprehensively w/i college (where companies don t know about workforce side of the house) Lead to talent pipeline activities (e.g. stackable credential models) vs. only short-term training Include new partners (e.g. MEPs)

4 Speakers Mark Troppe, Manager, Strategic Partnerships, NIST, Manufacturing Extension Partnership, US Dept. of Commerce Bill Boswell, Senior Director, Partner Strategy, Siemens PLM Leslie Parady, Project Manager, MassMEP Kathy Rentsch, Dean, School of Business, Engineering, and Technology Quinsigamond Community College (MA) Dale Allen, VP, Community Engagement, Quinsigamond Community College

6 MEP Program in Short Program Started in 1988 At least one center in all 50 states by 1996 National Network System of Centers serving Manufacturers in each State. Partnership Model Federal, State and Industry MEP System Budget $128 Million Federal Budget with Cost Share Requirements for Centers Global Competitiveness Program was created by the 1988 Omnibus Trade And Competitive Act Evolving Role Program continues to evolve in order to support manufacturers during changing economic situations.

7 NIST Manufacturing Extension Partnership Centers National program with at least one center in every state Market driven program that responds to the needs of private sector manufacturers Federal/State, publicprivate partnership Leverage partnering expertise as strategic advantage

8 Client Reported Impacts

9 MEP and Community Colleges: MOU signed between MEP and AACC -- July 2011 Support and co-sponsorship of events Documenting case studies National level support for local collaborations Skill certification Curriculum development Export promotion Innovation Environmental/sustainability Auto supply chain

10 MEP Centers-Community Colleges Potential collaborations: Referrals Collaboration on training Joint service delivery Complementary services can refer out some services/training and focus on others Co-located staff Share technical capabilities Collaborate on state/federal training funds available on behalf of manufacturing workers

29 Manufacturing Talent Recruitment Challenges Low skill levels of new employees Recruiting competent job applicants Knowledge transfer from experienced employees to less experienced employees The Sloan Center on Aging & Work

30 Massachusetts Manufacturing Challenges Since 1990, Massachusetts has lost: 75% of its large manufacturers (1000+ employees) 65% of its manufacturers ( employees) and their supply chains 70% of Massachusetts manufacturers have less than 20 employees 90% have less than 100 The definition of entry level has changed over the years. There has been a paradigm shift and the available skill sets are not meeting the need. -- MA manufacturer Building a Manufacturing Talent Pipeline
