The Strong Workforce Program Dashboard Provides Annual Results
The Strong Workforce Program Dashboard provides annual results, disaggregated data, and benchmarking information for metrics associated with the Strong Workforce Program and students enrolled in career and technical education (CTE) programs. The Office of Research, Planning & Institutional Effectiveness has included example datasets in this document. Users are highly encouraged to visit the CCCCO and Cal PASS-Plus LaunchBoard Strong Workforce Program Dashboard (located here) to explore the most current data disaggregated by age group, gender, race/ethnicity, and economic status (as available), as well as comparisons between our District and Statewide, Macroregion, and Microregion data. The Strong Workforce Program Dashboard Information is based on students who took one or more courses in the selected CTE program at a community college. You can view detailed comparisons between locales and programs or sectors, and the displayed data can be exported in csv format. You can filter data by selecting from the following criteria: • Locale: You can view data at the college, district, microregion, macroregion, or statewide level • For COS data select District (Sequoias District) or College (College of the Sequoias) • Our Microregion is Southern Central Valley-Mother Lode • Our Macroregion is Central-Mother Lode • Program: You can view data for All CTE programs, individual sectors, or individual programs based on TOP6 or TOP4 codes. • Academic Year: There are 8 years of data (2011-12 through 2018-19) • Using the “Drill Down” filter, you can view -

Daria V. Konior Institute for Linguistic Studies (Russian Academy of Sciences), Saint Petersburg, Russia E-mail: [email protected] Patterns and mechanisms of lexical change in symbiotic communities: the case of Carașova and Iabalcea (Banat, Romania) The historical region of Banat is known as one of the most diverse multilingual areas on the map of Europe. It has become a true mosaic of multiethnic and multilingual communities mainly due to numerous waves of migrations (first of all, arrival of the Slavic tribes to the Balkans, which started between 5th or 6th centuries), but also due to colonization policy of Habsburg administration. It resulted in mixing of different nations (Romanians, Hungarians, Germans, Serbs, Gypsies, Ukrainians, Bulgarians, Slovaks, Jews, Czechs, Croats, etc.) on a limited territory. One of the most interesting (sometimes even reffered to as “mysterious”) communities of Banat is the Catholic Christian population of the Karashevo microregion in Romania. There, the Krashovani Slavic dialect belonging to the Torlak dialect of Serbo-Croatian language is spoken in the village of Carașova, and the Krashovani Romanian dialect belonging to Banat Romanian continuum is spoken in the village of Iabalcea. This ethnolinguistic situation can be described not just as an intimate language contact, but as a symbiotic interaction, considering that Krashovani from these two villages share religion, identity and traditional values, but use different languages in their everyday communication. Our research focuses on the ways in which lexical and cultural codes interact in this community in 21th century. In order to explore this interaction, I examined the vocabulary of the traditional Krashovani wedding using a specifically elaborated bilingual questionnaire during my fieldwork in the microregion. -

The Access of Microenterprises to Commercial Microcredit in Aceh Besar: Closing the Gap Juanda1, Stefan Schwarze2, Stephan von Cramon-Taubadel3 1. Georg-August-Universität Göttingen, Tropical and International Agriculture, Germany; 2. Georg-August-Universität Göttingen, Department of Agricultural Economics and Rural Development, Germany; 3. Georg-August-Universität Göttingen, Department of Agricultural Economics and Rural Development, Germany Introduction . Reducing poverty has become an essential part of the Millennium Development Goals (MDG) and need to achieve. Microenterprises (MEs) have played an important role in rural developmental activities and were long recognized as vital in poverty alleviation in Indonesia. The developing world has in fact led the way in promoting the importance of rural finance. Access to commercial services is restricted in rural areas and the services can not meet the demand for financial services by rural households. Many microenterprises belong to poor and they are unable to provide collateral. Objectives Credit Limit There were two objectives formulated in this research: . In Indonesia, the official definition of microcredit covers all loans under IDR 50 million 1. To provide a review for the gap between the number of microenterprises (approximately US$5,500). being assisted and the overall number who might need assistance. Only seven percent of microenterprises have credit limit above IDR 50 million (Figure 4). 2. To determine effect of determinant factors which were found in research Figure 4.

From the 70’s, this design became consolidated in Brazil and other countries because of policies and strategies by states and private groups. However, some doubts has been raised on its environmental and socioeconomic issues, in special for family farming. This study aimed to contribute by identifying changes and resistance in agricultural structures, systems and demographic aspects of this model and its adoption by farmers. It was carried out in the state of Paraná – Brazil, within the microregion of Toledo and in the northern pioneer area, which represent the history and diversity of this state about socioeconomic and human aspects, as well as technical development. -
Luxembourgish Small and Medium-Sized Town in Europe : Challenges and Opportunities
West Luxembourgish Small and Medium-Sized Towns Europe in Europe: Challenges and Opportunities Small and Medium-Sized Towns: Facts and Figures Europe is a highly “urbanised” continent. Cities form the backbone of the European territory and are key actors in implementing EU and national policies. Alongside the larger cities, small and medium-sized towns play an important role in regional development across Europe. They contribute to greater social cohesion and concurrently represent the economic pillars and drivers in the EU. Towns and cities in the EU are facing different challenges. Whilst some are seeing their population decline, others have a rather fast growing population, which intensifies problems such as increasing unemployment or environmen- tal pollution. The same applies to economic development: some towns show strong economic growth whilst others have to deal with a shrinking economy. Nevertheless, small and medium-sized towns (SMSTs) could offer opportunities to increase the resilience of the re- gions they are situated in by promoting their potential in fields such as employment creation or social cohesion. Map 1: Prevailing type of settlements in terms of population SMSTs features • Population threshold be- tween 5.000 and 50.000 inhabitants • Population density be- tween 300 and 1.500 in- habitants/km² • 24,2% lives in Small and Medium-Sized Towns General urban features • 87% of population lives in urban areas in EU27 (plus ESPON Partner States) • 46,3% lives in Larger Cit- ies (High Density Urban Clusters ,HDUC) • 19% lives in Very Small Towns (below 5.000 in- habitants) • Total numbers (EU): › 850 Larger Cities (HDUCs) › 8.414 SMSTs › More than 69.000 Very Small Towns English Small and medium-sized towns in Europe Domain 4 “Equity”: European small and medium-sized towns (SMSTs) are › Lower unemployment rates compared to HDUCs hardly considered subjects in EU policy, yet are recog- Domain 5 “Culture and community”: nisable in the everyday experience of European citizens and companies. -
