1 Summary

CTE Program and Student Access and Success

District‐wide, the total full‐time equivalent students (FTES – residents and non‐residents) in Career Technical Education (CTE) courses have declined by 11.8% between 2010‐11 and 2014‐15. The largest decline was at – 21.7% followed by – 9.6%. In 2014‐15, Coastline Community College exceeded the CTE FTES achieved in 2010‐11. The decline in CTE FTES was due to the reduction in state funding since 2008‐09 and the decision to pursue stabilization in 2012‐13. Starting with 2013‐14 the number of CTE classes offered has started to grow again in parallel with the overall increase in classes offered district‐wide due to increases in state funding for community colleges.

District‐wide, course success rates in CTE courses declined slightly from 74.3% in Fall 2010 to 73% in Fall 2015. Orange Coast College maintained a mostly stable success rate while Coastline Community College and Golden West College experienced slight declines. CTE course success rates at GWC and OCC are higher than non‐CTE courses. However, Coastline CTE has slightly lower course success rates than non‐CTE courses.

District‐wide, the number of degrees awarded in CTE related associate degrees increased from 759 in 2010‐11 to 1,029 in 2014‐15. Coastline Community College experienced the largest increase –from 114 in 2010‐11 to 215 in 2014‐15 ‐ followed by Golden West College –from 182 in 2010‐11 to 261 in 2014‐15. Orange Coast College from 463 to 553 CTE‐related degrees awarded. The largest numbers of CTE associate degrees awarded are in Business Administration at Coastline Community College, in Nursing and Criminal Justice at Golden West College, and in Business Administration and Allied Health programs at Orange Coast College.

District‐wide, there are 155 state‐approved and active CTE‐related associate degree programs. Of those, 106 or 68.4% programs had at least one degree awarded in 2014‐15; 49 of the approved and active programs did not award any degrees.

District‐wide, the number of CTE certificates awarded increased by 82 from 1,120 in 2010‐11 to 1,202 in 2014‐15. Coastline Community College experienced a steady increase over the period. Orange Coast College experienced significant increases in 2011‐12 and 2012‐13 and 2014‐15. The largest numbers of CTE certificates awarded by program are in General Business and Paralegal Studies at Coastline Community College, in Esthetician, Law Enforcement and Cosmetology at Golden West College, and in Business Administration, Culinary Arts and Allied Health Programs at Orange Coast College.

District‐wide, there are 162 state‐approved and active CTE‐related certificates. Of those, 139 or 85.8% certificates had at least one certificate awarded in 2014‐15; 23 of the approved and active certificates did not award any certificates.

CTE‐Related Grants

District‐wide, the colleges and the District Office currently manage close to $10 million in active CTE‐related grants. These grants span a wide array of regional partnerships and CTE programs and federal, state and local funding. The colleges and the District Office are constantly monitoring and seeking grant opportunities that fulfill the missions of the colleges and the District. The District Grants Office continues to actively search for grant opportunities where the three Coast colleges can work collaboratively to innovate and expand CTE programs and offerings and assist the colleges to effectively manage the CTE funds currently active in the district. In addition, training materials for grant project managers are being produced to clarify roles, duties, and compliance responsibilities, and training for managers and faculty is being created on how to engage in funding opportunities offered by the National Science Foundation.

2 New or Expanded CTE Programs

Coastline Community College has fully mobilized around training future Cybersecurity professionals for government and corporate positions‐‐currently there is high demand for this specialty worldwide.

Golden West College is working on a new STEM center that will include a Maker Space, a place where students can gather to create, invent, tinker, explore and discover using a variety of tools and materials. GWC is aligning existing CTE programs and creating new CTE programs to maximize this new and innovative lab.

Orange Coast College is pursuing new programs in Aerospace that cut across several divisions at the college: Technology, Science & Math, and Business. OCC is also piloting a non‐credit program for Personal Care Assistants‐‐individuals who help with basic daily routines for the elderly or individuals who have a chronic illness or injury. This 8‐10 week intensive training program will provide skills and knowledge to apply for entry‐level jobs in an industry projected to have over 5,200 openings over the next 5 years in Orange County alone.

State Initiatives with Impact on CTE Programs and Funding

The Strong Workforce Program, which will take effect in 2016‐17, places further and much stronger emphasis on regional collaboration in developing and implementing CTE programs and providing funding exclusively to the regional collaboratives rather than directly to individual community college districts or individual colleges. In addition, CTE plans developed by regional collaboratives must be aligned with federal requirements of the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act.

3 CTE Program and Student Access and Success

CTE Full‐Time Equivalent Student (FTES) District‐wide, the total full‐time equivalent students (FTES – residents and non‐residents) in Career Technical Education (CTE) courses declined 11.8% between the 2010‐11 and 2014‐15 academic years (see Table 1). The largest decline was at Golden West –21.7% followed by Orange Coast – 9.6%. In 2014‐15, Coastline exceeded the CTE FTES achieved in 2010‐ 11 and it expects to maintain the same level in 2015‐16. The decline in CTE FTES was due to the reduction in state funding since 2008‐09 and the decision to pursue stabilization in 2012‐13. However, starting with 2013‐14 the number of CTE classes offered has started to grow again in parallel with the overall increase in classes offered district‐wide due to increases in state funding for community colleges (see Table 2).

Although CTE class sections account for between 21% and 24% of the total FTES, they account for 25% to 27% of the total class sections offered. This is expected because CTE classes have, on average, lower enrollment maximums than some of the general education classes due to regulatory, accreditation specific and pedagogical reasons.

CTE-Related Grants

Current CTE‐Related Grants

District‐wide, the colleges and the District Office currently manage close to $10 million in active CTE‐related grants. These grants span a wide array of regional partnerships and CTE programs and federal, state and local funding. The colleges and the District Office are constantly monitoring and seeking grant opportunities that fulfill the missions of the colleges and the District. The District Grants Office continues to actively search for grant opportunities where the three Coast colleges can 28 work collaboratively to innovate and expand CTE programs and offerings and assist the colleges to effectively manage the CTE funds currently active in the district. In addition, training materials for grant project managers are being produced to clarify roles, duties, and compliance responsibilities, and training for managers and faculty is being created on how to engage in funding opportunities offered by the National Science Foundation.

The information in the next pages provides an overview of the current CTE‐related grants as well as new grant opportunities currently under consideration or for which applications are being developed.

Coastline Community College ‐ $1,130,149

Cyberwatch West Cyberwatch West is a National Science Foundation/Advanced Technical Education grant that promotes cybersecurity education and attainment of the Center for Academic Excellence in Information Assurance and Cyber Defense (CAE2Y) designation within the 14 western states. Coastline’s primary objective is to work with the colleges to develop cyber security degrees and certificates that align with the criteria and knowledge units outlined by the National Security Administration and Homeland Security Administration. Coastline has worked closely with the C‐ID ICT Model Curriculum workgroup to help promote the newly approved ICT Model Curriculum. There are currently 40 California community colleges that have adopted the model. In addition, Coastline has worked with colleges in Northern and Southern California to update and align their curriculum with these standards.

The secondary objectives for Coastline include the outreach to state leaders, industry and business partners, senior college administrators, CTE deans and faculty in the 14 western states to promote awareness and encourage cyber curriculum and competition development. Presentations have been made in California, Washington, Nevada, Hawaii, and Texas on the CAE2Y designation and Cyberwatch West activities. Coastline has also been actively involved with the development of cyber competition curriculum and the deployment of cyber competition teams. Future initiatives that Coastline is participating in include developing an Internship Development document for developing new internship programs at community colleges, hosting a Cyber Girlz event to match middle school girls up with IT professionals to encourage women in technology fields, and continued outreach to colleges that are preparing applications for the CAE2Y designation.

Cyber Patriot Mini Grant Cyber Patriot is mini grant funded by the ICT/Digital Media Deputy Sector Navigator to promote cyber competitions to the K‐ 12 districts in Orange County. Coastline Garden Grove Center sponsored two training sessions, and four nation‐wide competitions that were attended by approximately 420 high school, middle school students, faculty, staff and administrators assigned to 26 teams. There were four teams that competed in the regional competitions in January.

There are four elements of focus for the grant including: 1: Outreach to K‐12 districts through Orange County, 2: Provide coach training for K‐12 coaches and mentors, 3: Provide help and leadership to the registration and ongoing competition schedule, and 4: Virtual hosting of the Cyber Patriot Competitions. The grant completed in December but due to the great demand by K‐12 partners, Coastline will continue the monthly training workshops through the spring in preparation for the next round of competitions next fall. The grant paid for outreach, NetLab setup and reconfiguration, registration for the K‐ 12 teams, food, and faculty time.

Free Tax Prep Campaign Coastline has partnered with the Orange County United Way, Internal Revenue Service, and the State Board of Equalization to provide free tax preparation and electronic filing to low and moderate income taxpayers. The current VITA grant includes

29 36 hours of training for Orange County United Way volunteers provided by Coastline faculty that started in December 2015 and was completed in January, 2016. In February 2016 Coastline had 3 free tax events, including one for Military. We have served over 75 taxpayers through Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) and Facilitated Self Assistance (FSA) at these 3 events. There are 9 more planned including a Military event with a live webinar at our Newport Beach Campus on Saturday, February 27. Orange County Supervisor, Andy Do and Orange County United Way, President Max Gardner are planning to attend the March 11, 2016 VITA event at the Garden Grove Campus. One event is planned for our Le‐Jao Center. Last year we served 7 different taxpayer languages at the Le‐Jao Center event including Spanish, Chinese, Japanese, Farsi, and Vietnamese.

CTE Enhancement 60% As part of the augmentation that the State Chancellor’s Office received for CTE, each college was encouraged to apply for CTE budget enhancement funds to address needs both locally and regionally. Coastline’s 60% local enhancement funds targeted the development of cyber competitions including Netlab expansion to enable hosting of regional cyber competitions and practice rounds (installation and reconfiguration), development of practice scenarios, purchase of servers/routers to run the competitions, staff development to enhance cyber offerings, and faculty curriculum development opportunities. Coastline has offered the Cyber Competition team course starting the Fall/2015 where students learned strategies and team work as they competed in regional and national collegiate competitions. As a result a student club, “Xploit,” was founded and encourages students to compete in cyber competitions. Future activities include expanding the curriculum to include multi‐tier courses for both the college as well as the K‐12 partners.

CTE Enhancement 40% The CTE Enhancement Regional Funds (40%) funded two projects: Internship development, and Collaboration of networking/cyber programs across the region. The Internship initiative is a joint project with Coastline, Orange Coast, Golden West, and to develop a regional approach to providing internships to the fours colleges and then expand the opportunities to other colleges in Orange County. Funds were used in conjunction with the SB1070 internship project that was also developing an internship program. The project has completed the research phase. Surveys of employers, students, and faculty have been sent out and evaluated for their input into the planning process. The surveys, infrastructure including ways to institutionalize internships, development of soft skill modules, and curriculum alignment activities are currently taking place. Once the infrastructure has been put into place, the implementation phase will begin that will include hiring a job developer to find internships positions for all of the colleges and recruitment of students into the programs.

The second part of the CTE 40% Enhancement funds focuses on a regional consortium of college networking/cyber security programs. This group and been trying to collaborate on course offerings, college specialties, cyber patriot/collegiate competitions, and alignment with the CAE2Y and model curriculum standards. Funds are also being used to help with faculty development activities. The group has supported the efforts of Coastline and Cypress to provide Cyber Patriot competitions in the county. Coastline has taken the lead in this effort and is developing a “How to Host a Cyber Competition” notebook so others can also replicate the success of the program at Coastline. Future plans are to continue to provide shared resources and scheduling across the region.

Faculty Entrepreneurship Champion Mini Grant This is a Business Deputy Sector Navigator mini grant to develop entrepreneurship curriculum that crosses disciplines. Business and Accounting Department Chairs have designated the responsible faculty for each outcome. The faculty non instructional assignment are being processed. Certificates have been initially reviewed, but need to be revised. Some certificates will be consolidated. Business Department is planning to submit new Entrepreneurship certificate for approval

SB1070 ‐ OC Career Technical Education Pathways Program Grant The SB 1070 Career Technical Education (CTE) Pathways Program grant is a collaboration of the nine Orange County community colleges, the School of Continuing Education, the Orange County Department of Education, K‐12 districts and ROPs, and regional business and labor organizations. The three‐year $1.9 million grant leverages funding to work collaboratively across the region to create policy changes that ease the awarding of college credit to high school students for articulated and dual enrollment courses, create industry‐recognized portable and stackable credentials, and promote countywide pathways. Areas of focus are in the high wage, high demand industry sectors such as: Advanced Manufacturing; Biotech; Digital Media Arts; Energy and Utilities; Engineering; Global Trade and Logistics; Healthcare; Information Communications Technology (ICT); Retail, Hospitality and Tourism; and Small Business.

Policy Alignment The overall goal of the SB 1070 CTE Pathways Program is to improve linkages and remove barriers across secondary and post‐secondary education—strengthening the connections from high school to college is a prominent goal for the grant.

34 Scaling and sustaining innovations such as career pathways require a regional approach for systems alignment. To meet the objectives of improving career pathways SB1070 is addressing:

 Alignment of CTE curriculum with high school career technical education curriculum to ensure seamless transitions for students through articulation, and regional programs of study.  Alignment of dual enrollment and credit by examination procedures across the region, and awarding of college credit with grades listed on the transcripts for high school students participating in CTE articulated courses.  Provision of priority registration to graduating high school students who have successfully completed college level CTE courses.

Curriculum Alignment SB1070 and OC California Career Pathways Trust 1 grant are launching joint work that brings together high school teachers and community college faculty to align curriculum in identified pathways and facilitate new articulation agreements. Working together as a community of practitioners, Curriculum Alignment Teams supported by industry professionals are taking on challenges such as:

 Improving alignment of secondary and post‐secondary CTE programs  Expanding articulation agreements and dual enrollment opportunities  Deepening integration of career technical education with core academic disciplines through development of a STEM Bridge course and contextualized boot camps.

Counseling and Student Support Services Building upon the learning community approach developed for the curriculum stream of work, SB1070 is supporting a learning community of secondary teachers, high school and college counselors and administrators from regional institutions. The grant is engaging this group to focus on key areas for pathway implementation, including transition support for students across pathway levels, and counseling to promote student matriculation in CTE programs. Curriculum and counselors will meet face to face and online to support pathway development and inquiry. In addition to organizing sector based groups, a regional pathway summit will convene educators and stakeholders in presenting work products and discussing opportunities to build and extend the process to other sectors and career pathways. This summit will also provide an opportunity to strengthen and deepen implementation of career pathways through discussion of curriculum alignment and regional sharing of best practices.

Business & Industry Partnerships SB1070 has initiated a needs assessment project with the Centers of Excellence to provide feedback and recommendations for Orange County community college career centers and local businesses for internship partnership programs, work‐based learning and career exploration. In addition to funding a needs assessment, SB1070 will explore deploying an online internship portal, and work with colleges and faculty to refresh internship courses.

To build regional capacity for CTE curriculum alignment and pathway development and promote productive partnerships between post‐secondary education and business and industry, the SB1070 grant will train a cadre of college participants to facilitate job analysis workshops using the Developing a Curriculum (DACUM) process. DACUM is a proven methodology for identifying the competencies required for a particular job or occupational area using subject matter experts from business and industry.

New or Expanded CTE Programs

Coastline Community College has fully mobilized around training future Cybersecurity professionals for government and corporate positions‐‐currently there is high demand for this specialty worldwide.

Golden West College is working on a new STEM center that will include a Maker Space, a place where students can gather to create, invent, tinker, explore and discover using a variety of tools and materials. GWC is aligning existing CTE programs and creating new CTE programs to maximize this new and innovative lab.

Orange Coast College is pursuing new programs in Aerospace that cut across several divisions at the college: Technology, Science & Math, and Business. There are excellent employment opportunities for students that range from CTE certificate‐ level technicians to Bachelor‐and‐higher degree‐level positions. OCC is also piloting a non‐credit program for Personal Care Assistants‐‐individuals who help with basic daily routines for the elderly or individuals who have a chronic illness or injury. This 8‐10 week intensive training program will provide skills and knowledge to apply for entry‐level jobs in an industry projected to have over 5,200 openings over the next 5 years in Orange County alone.

State Initiatives with Impact on CTE Programs and Funding In September 2012, the State Chancellor’s Office launched the Doing What Matters for Jobs and the Economy initiative. This initiative has changed the state approach relative to requirements for community college districts and individual colleges to work closely and collaboratively shifting the focus from work done by and funding for individual colleges to regional consortia and funding.

36 The Doing What Matters for Jobs and the Economy initiative is based on the following expectations:

. While colleges have traditionally allocated considerable resources to serve and grow local economies, working from the perspective of a single college or district is no longer sufficient to address the magnitude of the problems created by the economic downturn. . Regions are mobilizing around jobs and the economy. Community colleges need to do the same in order to remain vital partners in the workforce mission. Colleges must collaboratively respond and innovate in order to meet the needs of regional labor markets. . Employers who compete in the marketplace, must also partner to create a shared talent pool. Colleges are being asked to respond on three fronts:  a soft skills gap,  a basic skills gap (including digital literacy), and  an applied skills gap. Employers and colleges who partner regionally will be better able to prepare a competitive workforce. . If businesses can collaborate, so can the California community colleges.

The most recent development is the establishment of the Strong Workforce Program. The Strong Workforce Program is established through a trailer bill and would take effect in 2016‐17. It is the intention that $200 million in apportioned funds for CTE will be distributed via the regional consortia and will be subject to the direction/constraints of the region as outlined in the trailer bill.

The Strong Workforce Program is established for the purpose of expanding the availability of quality community college career technical education and workforce development courses, programs, pathways, credentials, certificates, and degrees. To facilitate program coordination and alignment with other workforce training, education, and employment services in the state, the Strong Workforce Program shall operate in a manner that complies with the California Strategic Workforce Development Plan, required pursuant to the federal Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (Public Law 113‐128), and expand upon existing Career Technical Education Regional Consortia infrastructure.

To avoid duplication of effort, activities funded under the Strong Workforce Program shall be informed by, aligned with, and expand upon the activities of existing workforce and education regional partnerships, including those partnership activities that pertain to regional planning efforts established pursuant to the federal Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (Public Law 113‐128), adult education block grant consortia, and K‐12 career technical education programs.

All of the following guiding principles will apply to community college districts participating in the Strong Workforce Program:

1. Community college districts shall ensure community college career technical education and workforce development courses, credentials, certificates, degrees, programs, and pathway offerings are responsive to the needs of employers, workers, civic leaders, and students.

2. Community college districts shall collaborate with other public institutions, including, but not limited to, local educational agencies, adult education consortia, local workforce development boards, and interested California State University and institutions on a regional basis.

3. Collaborative efforts shall focus upon evidence‐based decision making and student success with workforce outcomes aligned with the performance accountability measures of the federal Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (Public Law 113‐128), and closing labor market and employment gaps. Each collaborative shall strive to align programmatic offerings in the most effective and efficient manner to avoid duplication of effort and streamline access to services, and education and training opportunities.

4. Community college districts and other participating entities within a regional collaborative are encouraged to develop long‐term partnerships with private sector employers and labor partners to provide coordinated courses, programs,

37 and pathways with employer involvement in the assessment, planning, and development of community college career technical education courses, programs, and pathways. To the extent practicable, employer partnerships should build upon regional partnerships formed pursuant to the federal Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (Public Law 113‐ 128), existing infrastructure established by the chancellor's office, and other state or federal programs.
