First page 1 Next page Last page

This project was developed in partnership with WNY STEM and funded by the SUNY TEAM (Training and Education in Advanced Manufacturing) Project. This project attempts to quantify and estimate the likely middle-skills gap across the advanced manufacturing workforce cluster within the Western New York economy so that regional training and education providers might better address the gaps and serve the industry.

MEASURING MIDDLE-SKILLS OCCUPATIONAL GAPS WITHIN THE

WESTERN NEW YORK REGIONAL ECONOMY BETA VERSION 1

IN PARTNERSHIP WITH

SPONSORED BY

INTRODUCTION The WNY STEM Hub (WNY STEM) is an incorporated nonprofit of nearly 600 individuals representing over 250 organizations. We facilitate partnerships with business, education and community collaborators to serve learners of all ages in accessing STEM learning and careers. This is achieved by providing services, events, experiences and resources through collaboration of an extensive cross-sector network. WNY STEM is affiliated with a statewide network of STEM Hubs – the SUNY Empire State STEM Learning Network. The 5 counties served by WNY STEM are: Allegany, Cattaraugus, Chautauqua, Erie and Niagara. WNY STEM is an initiative of the United Way of Buffalo and Erie County that serves as fiduciary sponsor for the Hub. The UB Center for Integrated Global Health Sciences at the Buffalo Niagara Medical Campus serves as the Steward for WNY STEM. During the summer of 2015, the Workforce Development Action Team of WNY STEM convened focus groups to explore how WNY STEM might collaborate with regional partners to support STEM workforce needs that can help sustain the economic initiatives occurring in the region. Among the outcomes of the focus group discussions was the need for current, actionable data on STEM workforce skills gaps in the region that might guide future action. Todd Oldham, Vice President of Economic and Workforce Development at Monroe Community College was invited to present a successful data report on middle-skills gaps in the Finger Lakes Region in anticipation that such a report might begin the process of quantifying and identifying the gaps that currently exist. Three years ago, Monroe Community College (MCC) in partnership with SUNY (State University of New York) was awarded a $14.6 million grant from the U.S. Department of Labor to design, implement, and deliver a strategic approach to job training and education for high-need industries such as nanotechnology and advanced manufacturing. The consortium of 30 community colleges known as the SUNY TEAM (Training and Education in Advanced Manufacturing) Project designed and delivered comprehensive training and education in the advanced manufacturing industry sector. WNY STEM is a valued SUNY TEAM partner and was subsequently included in the SUNY TEAM’s project work. This data mapping project was funded by SUNY TEAM because of the demand for skilled and credentialed workers as evidenced by the local job opportunities, and a noted skills gap in existing training programs and current infrastructure. This project attempts to quantify and estimate the likely middle-skills gap across the advanced manufacturing workforce cluster within the Western New York Economy so regional training and education providers might better address the gaps and serve industry. In addition to the leadership role of Monroe Community College in the data management process, WNY STEM acknowledges that this report is the collective input of an advisory panel comprised of leaders in workforce development and educational institutions across all five counties of the region that supported triangulation of the data included in the report. WNY STEM is committed to the premise that learners engaged in STEM learning and career pathway development will have the skills and dispositions to succeed in college and career and will contribute to an economically and intellectually vibrant region. It is our hope that this report will be a valuable tool in continuing to move our mission forward and support our region’s manufacturing sector. Sincerely,

Michelle Kavanaugh, Ed.D. President, WNY STEM Hub

ADVANCED MANUFACTURING

Advanced manufacturing companies specialize in high-volume parts production, short-run assemblies, complicated engineering designs and/or automated manufacturing process jobs. The Advanced Manufacturing occupational groupings include: Mechanical Engineering Technologies, Mechatronics, Electrical Engineering Technologies, and Tooling and Machining. Advanced Manufacturing centers upon improving the performance of industry through the innovative application of technologies, processes and methods to product design and production.

OCCUPATIONAL GROUPINGS FOR ADVANCED MANUFACTURING

MECHANICAL ENGINEERING TECHNOLOGIES:

ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING TECHNOLOGIES:

Mechanical engineering technicians must be able to apply mechanical engineering theory and principles to calibrate, develop, alter or test machinery and equipment under the direction of the engineering staff. Some of the typical tasks of a mechanical engineering technician include component testing, part performance analysis, component fabrication and assembly, and blueprint and design analysis based on design objectives. MECHATRONICS: Mechatronics stems from blending mechanical and electronics in a relatively new approach to product design and development, merging the principles of electrical, mechanical, computer and industrial engineering. Mechatronic systems are often referred to as “smart” devices because of the incorporation of sensors, actuators and computer control systems. Mechatronics has become synonymous with products that exhibit fast, precise performance. A mechatronics engineer unites the principles of mechanics, electronics, and computing to generate a simpler, more economical and reliable system.

The role of Electrical Engineering technicians can be as varied as the workplaces they find themselves in: a pristine lab environment, a fabrication company, or a consulting firm. Job growth is anticipated by virtue of constant emerging technologies. Electrical Engineering technicians are prepared to research, design, develop, test and supervise the manufacturing and installation of electrical equipment, components, or systems for commercial, industrial and scientific use. They test and modify developmental and operational electrical machinery, electrical control equipment, and circuitry in industrial and commercial plants and laboratories. TOOLING AND MACHINING: The precision machining industry is one of the most technologically advanced fields. Machinists with the proper skill sets are in high demand as a result of their training in quality control and metrology. Computer numerically controlled (“CNC”) machines are employed in most modern-day machine shops and mass production facilities to increase accuracy and efficiency when forming metal parts. CNC machining, laser and water jet technology, electric discharge machining (“wire EDM”), computer aided design (“CAD”), computer aided manufacturing (“CAM”) design, and manufacturing programs are all examples of this cutting edge technology. Highly specialized, skilled machinists are helping to meet the rising local and global demand of innovative products and technologies.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

SUNY TEAM

In September 2012, Monroe Community College (MCC) in partnership with SUNY (State University of New York) was awarded a $14.6 million grant from the U.S. Department of Labor to design, implement, and deliver a strategic approach to job training and education for high-need industries such as nanotechnology and advanced manufacturing.The consortium of 30 community colleges known as the SUNY TEAM (Training and Education in Advanced Manufacturing) Project designed and delivered comprehensive training and education in the advanced manufacturing industry sector.

To date, over 4,200 TAA-eligible workers and veterans throughout New York have been enrolled in SUNY TEAM programs. These programs are designed to help students complete a technical certificate program in two years or less with the benefit of stacked and latticed industry recognized credentials. This project was funded because of the demand for skilled and credentialed workers as evidenced by the local job opportunities, and a noted skills gap in many advanced manufacturing areas.

ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT & INNOVATIVE WORKFORCE SERVICES AT MCC

The purpose of the Monroe Community College (MCC) division of Economic Development and Innovative Workforce Services (EDIWS) is to: • actively create and promote a robust applied-STEM (science, technology, engineering and math), career and technical education, and middle-skills career pathway system; • support investment in curricula and equipment for academic, career and technical education, and industry targeted programming;

• address the shortage in the educational pipeline (future workforce) and inform skills gaps in the existing workforce through labor market intelligence efforts; and • proactive outreach to business and industry. The labor market intelligence provided by EDIWS informs activities related to: regional grant partnerships, program development and investment, and economic impact.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

DATA SOURCES

Source: Analyst—EMSI’s proprietary labor market data system. ESTIMATED ANNUAL DEMAND The estimated employment change and turnover for an occupation for a given year. This is EMSI’s estimate of labor market demand for an occupation and, when combined with Related Completions, gives a picture of the supply and demand for the occupation in the region. Source: EMSI’s proprietary employment data, combined with occupation-specific percentages from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics Employment Projections program. COMPLETIONS The number of people who earned either an Associate’s degree or an academic certificate related to the specified occupational group during the year indicated. Completions used within this context represent the supply of newly created workers by the regional education providers for an occupation and, when compared with estimated annual job openings, provides an estimate of the labor supply created within the year compared to the estimated labor demand for a given occupational group as defined for the Western New York region. MCC completions reflect direct program completions; all related program completions are used for other middle-skills education providers. See 2014-2015 Advanced Manufacturing

SCOPE OF DATA The data contained in this report is based on EMSI’s 2015.4 datarun for the five county region and includes QCEW Employees, Non-QCEW Employees, and Self-employeed data sets. In contrast, MCC Career Coach data—accessible from each Occupational Group Definition page—is based on tradional metropolitian statistical area delineating across New York State OCCUPATION DATA EMSI occupation employment data are based on final EMSI industry data and final EMSI staffing patterns. Wage estimates are based on Occupational Employment Statistics (QCEW and Non-QCEW Employees classes or worker) and the American Community Survey (Self-Employed and Extended Proprietors). Occupational wage estimates also affected by county-level EMSI earnings by industry. WAGES Wages refer to the hourly earnings, excluding benefits, of a worker in an occupation. By default we display the median, which is in the middle of the wage distribution for each occupation; half of the workers make more, half of them make less. Percentile wages can be accessed in MCC Career Coach by clicking any of the adjacent links listed under the “Occupations” column. The “Totals” row contains the average for the median wage at each percentile level, which is used in the construction of the aggregate wage curve for the occupational group.

Completers from WNY for more details Source: Completions are derived from the Integrated Post-Secondary Education Data System (IPEDS). GAP ANALYSIS This measurement estimates the deficit or surplus of workers across the region for a given occupational group by comparing the number of trained program completers against the estimated annual demand. Formula: Total Annual Completions – Estimated Annual Job Openings = Estimated Gap. Source(s): Completions are derived from IPEDS; 2015 workforce figures were derived from Analyst. CROSSWALKS Are based on input provided by O*NET’s CIP-to- SOC crosswalk, MCC program-related faculty and CNY regional industry partners. OCCUPATIONAL GROUP HOURLY WAGES This is an aggregate curve of the weighted group averages for each hourly wage percentile level. ASSUMPTIONS AND LIMITATIONS ■ All SOC listed at the eight-digit level are based on six-digit level data. ■ Since this report was compiled using big data systems integrating over 90 (Traditional Labor Market Information by Analyst) and 27,000 (Real-Time Labor Market Information by

Labor Insight/Jobs) data sources, some variance may exist when comparing reported figures to a single data point. ■ Occupational groups and related completions are not mutually exclusive since many programs train graduates for a variety of occupations, and knowledge, skill and ability areas are transferrable to additional occupations beyond the scope of this study. ■ The Real-Time Labor Market Information in this report is based on online job postings. Some fields are more prone to use traditional recruiting methods, in which case their demand for middle-skills workers will not be fully represented by this report. GRAPHS Top Skills and Top Skill Cluster data are derived from an occupational cluster jobs query in Labor/Insight based on the April 1, 2013 to March 31, 2016 timeframe.
