This report contains information compiled from InfoUSA employer listings and analyzed using Environmental System Research Institute’s (ESRI) GIS software, ArcView 9.3 with Business Analyst. Occupational and industry projection data was provided by Economic Modeling Specialists, Inc. (EMSI). Appendix A includes additional information on how to use this report.
Economic Overview Demographic Overview The population in the Cuesta College service area (region) is projected to experience minimal growth in the next five years. Total population in 2010 is 438,589. Five year growth is projected to be two percent for an increase of less than 11,000 through 2015. The region is predominantly white, non-Hispanic and white Hispanic (90 percent). The following chart and table present 2010 race and ethnicity breakdown in the region.

Age demographics are notable in the Cuesta College service area. Interestingly, as reported by Cuesta College staff members, over 50 percent of Cuesta’s students come from geographic locations outside of the college service area. This is attributed to the college’s close proximity to Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo. Over the course of the next five years, the population cohort of 15 to 24 year olds in the region is projected to decrease by almost 8,400 or 11 percent. Hopefully the trend of students coming from outside the college service area will remain strong to help mitigate the impact of college age individuals projected to leave the area. Conversely, the age cohort of individuals 65 years of age and older is projected to increase by 14 percent through 2015. This may provide the college the opportunity to develop educational programs and services specific to this growing population. The following chart and table present age size and growth data for the region.

The fastest growing industry supersectors through 2015 are financial activities (13 percent); professional and business services, (13 percent); and education and health services, (nine percent). Coincidentally, the industries with the largest growth in terms of job creation are also financial activities (2,444 new jobs); professional and business

services (3,808 new jobs); and education and health services (2,418 new jobs). These three supersectors account for over 55 percent of all new jobs through 2015. Particularly noteworthy is the fact that jobs in agriculture, natural resources and mining currently account for 10.5 percent of all jobs in the region; statewide jobs in agriculture, natural resources and mining account for only 2.3 percent of all jobs. This clearly suggests that agriculture assumes a significant role in the economy of the region.
Occupational Overview The following charts and tables present occupational data for the region. They present size and growth data through 2015.
Occupational Size and Growth 2010-15
The 11 occupations presented in the bubble chart above and table below represent regional jobs across industries in occupational supersectors. Growth through 2015 is projected to be modest – single digit with a high of eight percent in: management, business and financial operations; professional and related occupations; and sales and related occupations. Military jobs are projected to decrease by 15 during this same time period for a one percent decrease in growth. This data is through the first quarter of 2009; it is recent enough to take into account the overall state of the economy so the fact that slight growth is projected is positive and optimistic. This is further substantiated by the fact that, while growth in individual occupational clusters is modest, 14,589 total new jobs are projected through 2015.

Regional Industry and Occupational Highlights The previous section of this report presented a high-level overview of industries and occupations in the Cuesta College service area. This next section will examine specific industry sectors and occupational clusters. These particular industry sectors and occupational clusters have been selected because:
They are a source of jobs in the region
They are generally good paying jobs
They are projected to grow in the next three to five years
They provide career ladder opportunities and/or skill sets that can be applied across industries
They may provide training and educational opportunities for Cuesta College Industries studied include the following:
Healthcare;
Professional, scientific and technical services;
Construction; and
Administrative and waste services The map on the next page shows the concentration of healthcare, professional services and administrative and waste services industries across the region. Construction was not included in the map because, while it does employ a significant number of workers in the region, it is less stable than the other three industries in terms of its growth.

through 2019 is expected to be almost 20 percent. Local industry growth through 2015 compares favorably both statewide and on a national basis. The current focus on automated records and health information technology may also result in additional job creation and growth in the industry. The next series of charts and tables present a snapshot of the healthcare industry through 2015. It includes both industry and occupational data. Occupational data is important and relevant because it illustrates how healthcare jobs map out across industries (e.g. government and education). Industry data captures all jobs across the industry to include healthcare professionals and support staff (janitorial, clerical/administrative, housekeeping, food service, and management/administration). The healthcare industry offers a wide variety of employment opportunities, professionally and operationally. Please see the following charts and tables for regional statistics.

Construction The construction industry currently employs over 13,400 workers in the Cuesta College service area with over 1,100 businesses in San Luis Obispo County. This report identifies specific industry sectors as well as high growth occupations within the industry. While the economic downturn has had an impact across industries, it has been especially challenging for the construction industry. This bears out in the trends presented in the following pages. Construction is a good source of local employment, but tends to be more volatile than other industries. This report will present both industry and occupational data for the construction industry. Occupational information includes current jobs, growth projections, earnings and educational requirements. The primary focus for industry and occupational growth is the five year period 2010 – 2015. The table on the following page presents a multi-year summary of construction industry growth in the region. Growth is fairly modest in the next year (2.3 percent), jumps to almost six percent through 2013 and then actually declines in the long term to less than one percent through 2019.

Regionally, the construction industry is projected to grow at a rate of five percent (719 new jobs) through 2015. So, while growth in and of itself is optimistic, regional industry growth is less optimistic when compared to state and national projections. The chart on the previous page graphically illustrates comparative growth (regional, state and national). The blue line represents Cuesta College service area regional growth; growth is on a steady, but modest upward trend through 2013. Effective 2014-15, the industry is actually projected to decline regionally and plateau or slightly grow statewide and nationally. State and national industry growth is projected to far out-pace local/regional growth by seven percent. Interestingly, local construction industry wages are slightly higher than state wages and $15,000 higher than national earnings.

Occupational Programs
There are a number of educational programs and services available to meet the workforce needs of the industries discussed in this report. Occupational program information is presented from an occupational perspective versus an industry perspective. Program information is presented for three primary occupational clusters to include the following:
Healthcare
Construction
Office administration and support services The “region” for this occupational program review has been expanded to identify programs in the entire South Central Region, or Region 6 of the California Community College system. This region includes San Luis Obispo, Santa Barbara, Ventura and north Los Angeles Counties. The reason for expanding the region is to provide a bigger picture look at programs and services available to help facilitate more effective and less redundant curricula and program planning. Detailed occupational programs information for the aforementioned occupational clusters can be found in Appendix D of this report. Information presented includes: a list and brief description of all occupations within the cluster; a summary of programs and 2008 completions; an itemized list of programs and 2008 completions; and a list of institutions providing the educational services. This institutional information is taken directly from the national IPEDS database published by the U.S. Department of Education’s National Center for Educational Statistics. Please refer to Appendix D.
Industry Competencies – Knowledge, Skills and Abilities for Select Occupations The final section of this report is designed to examine knowledge, skills and abilities of select occupations from an industry perspective. It defines industry competency by identifying knowledge, skills and abilities of the top occupations within the each of the four industries discussed throughout this report. This information is intended to help inform curricula and program development. The identified knowledge skills and abilities are taken directly from the O*NET data base, an online occupational network created for the U.S. Department of Labor, Employment and Training Administration by the National Center for O*NET Development. O*NET can be accessed at http://online.onetcenter.org. This knowledge, skills and abilities information can be found in Appendix E of this report. It will include: a list of selected industry sectors; a list of top occupations within the industry; and an itemized list of top knowledge, skills and abilities for each of the top occupations.

Conclusion The purpose of this report is to provide customized demographic, industry and occupational data to strengthen the awareness and understanding of regional educational and workforce needs to help Cuesta College make data driven decisions relative to curricula and program planning and resource allocation. An additional, perhaps broader goal of this report is to provide data and information to support the overall strategic planning effort of the College. Cuesta College serves students and employers in San Luis Obispo, northern Santa Barbara and southern Monterey Counties. The total population in this geographic region is over 438,000 people. The Cuesta College service area/region currently employs over 228,000 workers with new job creation expected to grow by over 15,600 jobs, or seven percent through 2015. Major industries contributing to the economic vitality of the region include:
Healthcare;
Professional, scientific and technical services;
Construction; and
Administrative and Waste Services Age demographics may be a consideration in future program planning and development. Industry and occupational growth, along with wage and career ladder opportunities will also inform and influence future decisions and initiatives. This report is designed to provide an overview of some of the current trends of the region. It presents industry specific information and wage and growth information on hundreds of occupations within the selected industries. Employment opportunities are diverse with a wide range of educational requirements and career possibilities. Cuesta College is also uniquely positioned to participate in the growth of both solar and wind technologies in the region. Information in this report is impacted by the current instability of the economy. The data presented is 1st quarter 2010 so it does reflect job loss and unemployment that have been endemic of the current recession. There may also be aberrations in the data that have not yet been captured as part of the economic downturn. It is highly recommended that these findings be validated with employers, local industry associations and economic development professionals.

Data Sources and Calculations
Industry Data In order to capture a complete picture of industry employment, EMSI basically combines covered employment data from Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages (QCEW) produced by the Department of Labor with total employment data in Regional Economic Information System (REIS) published by the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA), augmented with County Business Patterns (CBP) and Nonemployer Statistics (NES) published by the U.S. Census Bureau. Projections are based on the latest available EMSI industry data, 15-year past local trends in each industry, growth rates in statewide and (where available) sub-state area industry projections published by individual state agencies, and (in part) growth rates in national projections from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Occupation Data Organizing regional employment information by occupation provides a workforce-oriented view of the regional economy. EMSI's occupation data are based on EMSI's industry data and regional staffing patterns taken from the Occupational Employment Statistics program (U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics). Wage information is partially derived from the American Community Survey. The occupation-to-program (SOC-to-CIP) crosswalk is based on one from the U.S. Department of Education, with customizations by EMSI. State Data Sources This report uses state data from the following agencies: California Labor Market Information Department. Competency Data The competency data in this report is taken directly from the O*NET database. Institution Data The institution data in this report is taken directly from the national IPEDS database published by the U.S. Department of Education's National Center for Education Statistics. CIP Crosswalk Data The CIP / O*NET occupation crosswalk data in this report is taken from the O*NET project.
