CityLYNK Gold Line Streetcar on Elizabeth Ave., CPCC Central Campus
LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT This 2014-15 Annual Report highlights Central Piedmont Community College’s continued commitment to the students, residents, businesses and industry of Mecklenburg County. As it has done for more than 50 years, the college works to enhance the lives and success of individuals and employers, making Mecklenburg County stronger and more prosperous in the process. A recent economic impact study conducted for the North Carolina Community College System indicated CPCC provides at least $1.1 billion to the Mecklenburg County economy annually. The college is proud to be one of the county’s primary and most reliable economic engines and workforce development partners. CPCC has eagerly taken on the additional role of helping the county realize its future economic vision by becoming a global hub of commerce. Through new, innovative partnerships like the Charlotte Regional Collaborative for a Global Economy and the launch of CPCC’s new Global Logistics Center, CPCC is working hard to bring a global focus to the county’s economic development endeavors. These new efforts combine well with our everyday work of providing specialized and highly focused programs that help Mecklenburg County attract new businesses and more jobs, and prepare our students to enter the county’s workforce.
Dr. Tony Zeiss This report provides a glimpse of CPCC’s 2014-15 initiatives and accomplishments. The achievements and dedication of our students, faculty and staff are a constant source of pride. As always, we thank our many friends and partners for their continued support and for making the great work of this college possible. Sincerely,
P. Anthony Zeiss, Ed.D. President
good for the STUDENTS 2 LETTER FROM THE CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD Thanks to the support and confidence of the Mecklenburg County Commissioners and Mecklenburg voters, Central Piedmont Community College has launched the largest series of construction projects in the college’s 52-year history.
In 2013, Mecklenburg County voters and commissioners approved $280 million to undertake 10 renovation and new construction projects. The first two projects are now complete and provide much-needed laboratories on Central Campus and essential classroom space at Cato Campus. When all 10 projects are completed sometime in 2019-20, the college will have added almost 1 million square-feet of new academic space.
This tremendous investment by Mecklenburg County helps ensure CPCC’s ability to offer cutting-edge job training programs, providing the skills and knowledge demanded by our local employers. This expansion in the college’s facilities also gives CPCC the flexibility to develop and offer new programs to meet the ever- changing needs of Mecklenburg’s residents, business and industry. Our students and our community depend on CPCC to be an innovative college and workforce development partner.
My fellow trustees and I are continually grateful for the abiding support CPCC receives from throughout Edwin A. Dalrymple Jr. Mecklenburg County. The support of the Mecklenburg County Commission, the county manager and her staff, the Charlotte Chamber of Commerce, the Charlotte Regional Partnership, our business and industry partners, multiple foundations and our many wonderful individual donors enable the college to fulfill its important mission of education and workforce development.
Thank you for taking a moment to read this Annual Report. Thank you also for your continued support of CPCC.

Dr. Jill Biden, second lady of the United States, served as CPCC’s 2015 graduation speaker. Dr. Biden addressed more than 800 of CPCC’s 1,800 graduates at the May 14 ceremony.
Biden called CPCC “among the best of the best,” praising the college for “equipping students with the skills they need to excel in careers in some of the fastest-growing industries in the United States, such as manufacturing, engineering and healthcare.”
Biden said CPCC and other community colleges are a “gateway to a new career, to a four-year university and to a more prosperous life.” She also advocated President Barack Obama’s proposal to waive community college tuition for all students who maintain a 2.5 grade-point average and make steady progress toward earning a degree.

Cummins Inc., a global manufacturer, distributor and service provider of diesel and natural gas engines and related technologies, and CPCC have partnered to train students from across North America in Cummins’ Technician Apprentice Program (TAP).
With a program launch in January, groups of 15 Cummins 1 2 apprentices are now taking classes at CPCC in five- week blocks. Over the course of the four-year program, Cummins apprentices will spend the equivalent of two years at CPCC, where they will learn how to build and maintain Cummins diesel engines. When the students complete the program, they will have earned an associate degree in Diesel and Heavy Equipment Technology and be Cummins certified in engine and/or power generation.
The apprentices are full-time Cummins employees, with the company paying all program expenses (tuition, fees, books), and providing a complete set of diesel technician tools. The program requires 1,200 CPCC instruction hours, including lab, in-class and online courses.

1 2 ECONOMIC IMPACT STUDY FINDS CPCC A VITAL ECONOMIC DRIVER
An economic impact study conducted for the North Carolina Community College System indicates CPCC added $1.1 billion to the Mecklenburg County economy in 2012-13.
Economic Modeling Specialists International (EMSI) conducted the study by looking at CPCC’s economic impact through its operations spending, construction spending, student spending and the financial imprint of the college’s alumni.
In 2012-13, CPCC’s payroll and other operations spending equaled approximately $131 million. The college’s new construction and renovation projects added $6.1 million to the local economy. Students who relocated to Mecklenburg County to attend CPCC in 2012-13 put an additional $11.8 million into the county’s economy. EMSI suggests the accumulated economic contribution of CPCC alumni employed in Mecklenburg County amounted to $979.8 million. All totaled, CPCC’s 2012-13 economic impact reached $1.1 billion.
“This study confirms what Mecklenburg County residents, leaders and businesses have known for more than 50 years. CPCC contributes to our community’s quality of life in many ways, including making the county economically stronger,” said Dr. Tony Zeiss.

In late 2014, CPCC learned it would receive a job-training grant of $2,499,378 from the U.S. Department of Labor. CPCC is using the grant to support its “Mechatronics Re-Envisioned” project, which is helping more students earn degrees, certificates and other industry-recognized credentials in mechatronics.
The CPCC grant is part of $450 million in “job-driven training” grants going to nearly 270 community colleges across the country. The funding is part of the Trade Adjustment Assistance Community College and Career Training (TAACCCT) competitive grant program.
CPCC’s Mechatronics program trains students for positions in today’s high-tech advanced manufacturing environments. The Mechatronics Engineering Technology curriculum prepares students for jobs requiring electrical and mechanical engineering knowledge as well as advanced computer skills. This breadth of knowledge and skills is needed to operate the complex systems found in advanced manufacturing. CPCC was one of the first U.S. community colleges to develop and offer a program in mechatronics.

FESTO AND CPCC CREATE A NORTH AMERICAN TRAINING CENTER
CPCC and Festo Didactic SE, headquartered in Denkendorf, Germany, agreed in late 2014 to establish a North American training center, located on CPCC’s Central Campus.
The joint venture, called the “Festo-CPCC Learning Center of Excellence,” will advocate the growth and development of advanced manufacturing in the United States, while giving CPCC students and incumbent workers a one-of-a-kind opportunity to become highly skilled operators of the latest high-tech manufacturing equipment.
Festo Didactic is a world-leading equipment and solution provider for industrial education, designing and implementing learning laboratories, educational equipment and programs that train workers to perform in highly dynamic and complex industrial environments.
“We intend for our new joint venture to become the ‘gold standard’ for technical education and training in the United States and North America,” said Dr. Daniel Boese, managing director of Festo Didactic. “Through this large-scale initiative, we will advocate and promote advanced manufacturing as a viable, attractive and lifelong career option for students and new and incumbent workers in the U.S.”

COLLEGE MOURNS PASSING OF H. ALLEN TATE JR. APRIL 23, 1931 – JUNE 22, 2015
Allen Tate employed his entrepreneurial spirit in leading Allen Tate Company to become the largest residential real estate firm in the Carolinas. He was a legendary business and civic leader, visionary and friend of Central Piedmont Community College and its president, Dr. Tony Zeiss.
CPCC is honored to have had Allen involved with the college for three decades. He served as a member of the board of trustees and later as a member of the CPCC Foundation board of directors. Last year, he and his wife, Bessie, were honorary co-chairs of CPCC’s 50th anniversary Legacy and Promise campaign, which raised more than $60 million for the college – double the goal.
In September 2014, Allen and Bessie became members of CPCC’s Legacy Society with a gift of life insurance to create a clock tower on the college’s Central Campus. Allen wanted to build something that students and graduates would fondly remember, much like he remembered the Old Well at his alma mater, the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. The Tate Tower was dedicated on May 28, and Allen gave a wonderful talk about how, in the beginning, CPCC was just a dream. He observed how CPCC dreamed and became an outstanding resource for the region. He closed by urging the college to “keep dreaming.”
In delivering a eulogy at Allen’s funeral on June 26, Dr. Zeiss said, “Allen learned to sell by selling, and he learned to be a leader by leading and serving others. Best of all, he learned to be an extraordinary person by becoming an extraordinary person.”
CPCC has lost an extraordinary man and dear friend.

Several times during her lifetime, Hughes’ wife, Sudie Brotherton, gave gifts to the scholarship fund. She also named this fund a beneficiary in her will. Soon after her passing in 2014, her bequest was added to the Hughes Memorial Scholarship Fund, increasing the opportunities for students to receive assistance for tuition and books.
Memorial gifts and bequests to be used for scholarship assistance are two ways to significantly impact CPCC students. The thoughtfulness of the Hughes family is greatly appreciated.
