3 Labor Market Overview WIA 118 (b) The local plan shall include - (1) an identification of (A) the workforce investment needs of businesses, jobseekers, and workers in the local area; (B) the current and projected employment opportunities in the local area; and (C) the job skills necessary to obtain such employment opportunities; 1. Based on consultation with NYSDOL s Labor Market Analyst, and a review of your Regional Economic Development Council s (REDC) Five-Year Strategic Plan, describe the current and projected employment opportunities in your local area and region. Provide a priority ranked list of the local area s demand occupations for PY 2013 that includes SOC codes and job titles. The current and projected employment opportunities in Oswego County and the Central New York region span many areas. Based on projections provided by the New York State Department of Labor, a review of the Workforce Board's targeted industries, the Regional Economic Development Council's Strategic Plan and information provided by local employers, employment opportunities are anticipated for the following areas: Advanced Manufacturing; Health Care; Ambulatory Health Care; Skilled Labor; Professional, Scientific and Technical Services; Clean energy and Environmenal Systems; Financial Services; Insurance; Agribusiness and Food Processing; Administrative and Supportive Services; Social Assistance Programs; Food and Beverage; Biomedical and Bio Sciences; Personal/Home Construction trades; Computer Network; Data and Communication Systems; and Hospitality/Tourism. A priority ranked list of demand occupations can be found at: This list was originally created in program year 2012 and has been updated with current information. The list will continue to be updated throughout the year as new information becomes available. The Oswego County Workforce Board will also consider any occupation yielding three or more current job openings when searching using a bona fide job search engine to be a demand occupation. Openings in Oswego County or the Central New York region may be considered. 2. Explain how your demand list was shaped. Describe the data source(s) used to develop/support your demand list. The demand occupation list was shaped by consulting with the Regional Occupational Analyst to identify occupations anticipated to be in demand in the local area and the Central New York Region; a review of the demand areas identified in the Central New York Regional Economic Council's Strategic Plan and feedback from the regional and local business service teams who have regular contact with employers. In addition, the workforce area hosted two employer events; a Workforce/Education Summit in February 2013, and an Employer Forum in May Both events provided an opportunity for employers to share information on current and anticipated job openings and the skills needed for these jobs. This information, along with feedback from frontline staff regarding openings posted on the job bank, was used in creating the demand occupation list. 3. Identify the job skills/credentials for the occupations that are highest in demand, including those identified as priorities by your REDC. Describe the education and training resources that exist in your area/region to assist individuals to obtain these skills. Training options Program Year 2013 Local Planning Guidelines 3

4 such as on-the-job training, ITAs, customized training and contracted training should be discussed where relevant. The job skills/credentials that are needed to obtain employment in the areas identified include degrees, certificates and certifications in areas including (but not limited to): Accounting/Bookkeeping; Office Administration; Human Resource Management; Microsoft Office; Engineering (all areas, but especially electrical); Criminal Justice; Corrections; Security; Computer Information Systems; Computer Support Systems; Computer Analysts; Computer Programming; Network Administration; Insurance; Construction; Customer Service; Social Work; Electrical/Electronics; Environmental; Energy Systems; EMT; Medical Assisting; Medical Office; Medical Billing and Coding; Medical Transcription; Medical Records; Medical Technicians; Phlebotomy; Nurse Aide; Personal Care Aide; Home Health Aide; Patient Care; Pharmacy Technician; Dental Assistant; Dental Hygienist; Cook; Food Preparation; Food Processing: Food Service; Packaging; Heavy Equipment Operation; Welding; Drafting; CADD; CNC; Asbestos/Hazardouse Material Removal; Transportation/Distribution; Auto Mechanics; Nursing (CAN, LPN, RN, BSN) and Therapeutic Services (Occupation, Physical, Speech). The education and training resources that exist in Oswego County and the Central New York region for individuals to obtain these skills include a number of community colleges, colleges and universities; proprietary schools; the BOCES; and opportunities for online and distance learning. Individual Training Accounts (ITA's) are available to jobseekers to attend training in demand occupations with providers listed on the New York State Eligible Training Provider List. OntheJob training and other subsidized employment opportunities are available to provide job seekers needing immediate employment with the opportunity to lean new skills while earning a pay check. These programs also provide employers willing to train on the job with subsidies to offset the cost of training. Customized training is available to assist employers to upgrade skills of the current workforce to remain competitive in the local labor market. To address areas where training options are insufficient to meet local needs, the following actions are underway: The Workforce Board, through it's affiliation with SUNY Oswego, has worked with local employers and the community colleges to develop programs in Energy and Engineering. Articulation agreements have been developed to create career ladders from two to four year programs. These progams will begin in the fall of The Community College is working to develop certificate and degree programs responsive to local employer needs. Certificate programs have been developed in Medical Coding and Advanced Manufacturing. The community college has submitted an application to SUNY to offer a Certified Occupational Therapy Assistant Program (COTA) in hopes that the program will be available by Fall The One Stop/Workforce Board continue to connect local employers with training agents to address training needs. Programs that have been/are in development include electrical/electronics, healthcare, and advanced manufacturing. 4. Describe any regional or sector-based training initiatives in which your local area is involved or is planning to be involved during PY Explain how these initiatives align with the demand occupations on your list. The Workforce Board is committed to the goals established in the Regional Economic Development Council's Strategic Plan. Many of these goals mirror those of the Workforce Board. The Board will Program Year 2013 Local Planning Guidelines 4

5 continue efforts to work with local training providers (BOCES, community colleges, SUNY Osweo, etc.) to create training opportunities responsive to employer identified needs. The Board will also continue to use the resources of the one Stop to train job seekers for these occupations. T he demand occupation list for the local area reflects this goal. Performance WIA 118 (b) The local plan shall include - (3) a description of the local levels of performance negotiated with the Governor and chief elected official pursuant to section 136(c), to be used to measure the performance of the local area and to be used by the local board for measuring the performance of the local fiscal agent (where appropriate), eligible providers, and the one-stop delivery system, in the local area; Information and documentation produced through the yearly Performance Indicator Negotiation Process will become part of this plan.

A copy of the policy can be found at the County website at Exceptions to the County policy are services funded with Individual Training Accounts (ITA's) and services for youth. Consistent with New York State policy, the local area authorizes payment to cover the cost of training for job seekers in the form of Individual Training Accounts (ITA's). ITA's are issued to approved training providers on the New York State Eligible Training Provider List (NYS ETPL) in lieu of County procurement policy. Training providers are allowed to submit proposals to the NYS ETPL at any time. The proposal is then reviewed based on NYS policy. The list is continually updated as new proposals are submitted. Youth services are procured through a competitive bid/request For Proposal (RFP) process overseen/approved by the Youth Council, a committee of the Workforce Board. The Youth Council is responsible for directing and overseeing the delivery of youth programs, including issuing the RFP and approving youth service providers. The Youth RFP is formally issued every two years, but proposals are accepted on an ongoing basis. Consistent with County policy, contracts cover one year at a time, and are modified at the end of the year to extend into the second year. Payment for youth services are authorized with an authorization letter using a feeforservice model. The contract awarded from the RFP outlines the terms and payment amounts that can be authorized. Waivers The general statutory and regulatory waiver authority granted to the Secretary of Labor is a continuing authority granted by the Workforce Investment Act at section 189(i)(4), Public Law , and provides increased flexibility to states and local areas in implementing reforms to the workforce development system in exchange for state and local accountability for results, including improved programmatic outcomes.
