College Leadership Resources

• Frequently Asked Questions• Click here for printable version [PDF].• Q: Will this affect how CTE programs are offered at

my college? – A: No. College CTE programs, supported with local

apportionment funding, are structured and offered according to decisions made at the college and by the local governing board.

– They may choose to benefit from resources made available through the Doing What Matters for Jobs and Economy (DWM) framework.

College Leadership Resources

• Q: How will the priority selection affect my program?

– A: The DWM framework provides funding for 10 sectors, five of which were selected by the region as either a priority or emerging area of focus.

– Colleges offer many other, unaffected, instructional programs. – If a college offers a program in a unselected sector for the

region, this program will also be unaffected if supported by apportionment.

– Where there is alignment between programs and the region’s selection, more opportunities become available for technical assistance or participation in collaborative activities.

College Leadership Resources

• Q: My program is not within one of the selected sectors prioritized by my region. Can I still benefit? – A: All campuses are welcome to tap into the

collaborative communities which can be established in any region to support faculty coming together to update curriculum for industry needs.

– SB1402 seeks to also inform apportionment-supported curricula in priority and emergent sectors important to regions should that be of interest to a local college.

College Leadership Resources

• Q: How can I keep my currently funded EWD-funded Center?– A: The RFA process provides first consideration to supporting

regional sector priorities. – The number of awards will increase compared to prior years. – If resources remain available after the initial review, at-large

awards will be considered.– Colleges are encouraged to collaborate with regional community

colleges offering instructional programs in the sector. – It will be important for centers to address the SB1402-updated

Common Metrics and Accountability Measures (see Appendix D in RFAs) that promote student success and meet industry's need for skilled workers.

College Leadership Resources

• Q: Centers take time to become established. Why the 1-5 year renewal timeframe instead of the prior 5-7 years?– A: According to the RFA, as long as the regional

economy continues to value the sector and the center performs as outlined, it is possible for the tenure of the grant to last the life of SB1402.

College Leadership Resources

• Q: Where did the list of 10 sectors come from?– A: This list represents three considerations:

1) labor market research, 2) existing assets and prior investments, 3) an agreement amongst the seven state agencies regarding California’s economic strategy.

College Leadership Resources• Q: How were the regions decided? How was it decided that my

college is in a specific region?– A: The 15 regions represent regional economies identified through research

conducted by state Economic Strategy Panel and by the Centers of Excellence with advisement of the Labor Agency Labor Market Information Division (LMID).

– These 15 regional economies are grouped into 7 macro-regions aligned with the California community college regional consortia.

– There are other regional designations: • The local WIBs have 49 regions, • Community colleges have 70 districts including 112 colleges, • The California Department of Education designates 11 regions.

– The alignment of the regional consortia with the economic regions provided the best information and coordination for both colleges and the economy.

College Leadership Resources

• Q: Will the sector prioritization be revisited?– A: Yes, reviews will occur by the Regional Consortia

each year for submission to the Chancellor’s Office in September.

– Sector determinations will be informed by data provided by the Centers of Excellence, other sources of data (such as LWIB, industry, and local economic development entities) and recommendations from college leadership.

– Major shifts within the sectors at the regional level are not anticipated.

College Leadership Resources

• Q: What is braiding? What about the legalities?– A: Braiding is a recognized resource allocation

strategy whereby categorical programs are administered under a unified framework rather than in silos.

– The legal parameters of each funding stream have been inventoried by the Chancellor’s Office. Braiding has become a common-place federal strategy given diminished resources.

College Leadership Resources

• Q: Why is workforce program funding being braided?• A: Braiding is an established resource allocation

strategy whereby categorical programs are administered under a unified framework rather than in silos.

• Resources are leveraged to support regionally identified priority and emergent sectors that have the potential to rebuild regional and state economies.

• Braiding has become common federal practice.

College Leadership Resources

• Q: What is authentic partnership?– A: Often, partners who have never worked together apply for

funds resulting in a set of disjointed interests rather than a common goal and approach.

– California has received feedback from the US Department of Education that this is an area in which improvement is needed.

– The Doing What Matters for Jobs and Economy framework seeks to improve connections, relationships and joint planning in advance of funding opportunities.

– Such authentic partnership – either by region or by sector – will better position grant applications from colleges and consortiums for success.

College Leadership Resources

• Q: Did this framework solicit field feedback?• A: Yes. • The Doing What Matters for Jobs and

Economy framework was developed over a year’s timeframe of feedback from the field, including 13 Critical Conversations held throughout the state.

College Leadership Resources• Q: How were the priority sectors determined?

– A: Regions were asked to select and submit up to five priority and emergent sectors.

– The Perkins-funded Regional Consortia convened the regional discussions. – They involved a variety of stakeholders to discuss the region’s labor market

data including representatives from the local WIBs, economic development entities, CTE deans, program faculty, industry representatives, and chambers of commerce .

– Regions did not lack in data, but rather lacked an agreement on where to target investment.

– This process will become more sophisticated over time as the stakeholders gain familiarity with the process.

– Many regions are considering a more formalized decision-making processes, including a Joint Power Authority, Memorandum of Understanding, Co-Op, or 501c(3).

College Leadership Resources

• Q: Will there be continuing opportunity for input? How should colleges communicate issues and concerns?– A: The Chancellor’s Office welcomes input and has

established the following sites to disseminate and collect information:• Website: www.doingwhatmatters.cccco.edu• eUpdate: http://bit.ly/XuCzeZ• Twitter: @WorkforceVan• Email: vtquinlivan@cccco.edu• Future answers to questions will be posted via the website.

Workforce & Economic Development Division (WEDD) Grants

• Key administrative changes made by the legislature during the 2012 session for the EWD and CTE Pathway programs [SB1402 and SB1070 (formerly SB70)] have resulted in:– Targeting workforce incentive funds towards priority and emergent sectors

important to California's regional economies (link to map) through activities that “move the needle” in the region’s new and emergent sectors.

– Staffing key talent roles that serve industry and colleges, including sector navigators and regional consortia chairs, to facilitate in-region and multi-region coordination.

– Mobilizing community college training capacity and developing regional collaboration around sectors.

– Applying common metrics and accountability measures that promote student success and meet industry's need for skilled workers.

– Providing technical assistance and flexible mini-grants to support faculty collaboration and update curriculum for industry needs.

Workforce & Economic Development Division (WEDD) Grants

• SB1070 funds will diminish to roughly half in 2014-15 and to zero in 2015-16.

• The legislature, required greater evidence of student progression as well as alignment with regional economies.

• These factors will affect activities and outcomes for SB1070 funds.

Workforce & Economic Development Division (WEDD) Grants

• The reauthorization of SB1402 funds called for EWD programming to inform and mobilize community college apportionment-supported training capacity and to develop regional collaboration around sectors.

• This will impact the administration of these funds.

designations for this RFA cycle? – New legislation and regulatory decisions are creating annual funding streams that

are of similar magnitude to ARRA. – These had not been made when the consortia set their priorities, and probably

were not considered.• When will RFAs be released?• Why is it that all TA funds/projects are not going through the RFA process?• How much will the TA grants be?• Is there any alternative to JPA, such as a 501c3 or MOU?• Listen to answers from Vice Chancellor Van Ton-Quinlivan by viewing the
