4 Mid-America Regional Council | 2017 Education Asset Inventory

Introduction

This Educational Asset Inventory supports efforts to increase postsecondary educational attainment and build a skilled workforce in the Kansas City region. It provides important information for a variety of efforts to strengthen the region’s human capital, many of which come together under KC Rising.

• KC Rising is a regional initiative, launched in late 2014, focused on increasing the Kansas City region’s global economic competitiveness. This business-led initiative is structured around three key economic drivers — trade, ideas and people. KC Rising is supported through a partnership with the Civic Council of Greater Kansas City, the Kansas City Area Development Council, Mid-America Regional Council (MARC) and the Greater Kansas City Chamber of Commerce.

• Also in 2014, the Kansas City region was selected to participate in Lumina Foundation’s Community Partnership for Attainment. As part of this effort, MARC convened GradForce KC, a steering committee made up of representatives from colleges and universities, school districts, K-12 intermediaries, local governments and civic organizations dedicated to increasing postsecondary attainment in the region.

By 2027, an estimated 73 percent of good jobs will require postsecondary education, but only 42 percent of the Kansas City region’s adult population holds an associate degree or higher. GradForce KC is focused on closing that gap, with particular attention to returning adult students who have some college but no degree and low-income, minority and first generation college students.

• Two more initiatives launched in tandem in late 2016 with the expressed intent to increase attainment for low- to moderate income individuals:

KC Scholars is a regional scholarship program that supports both traditional high-school students and adult learners as they pursue postsecondary degrees. Income is a selection criteria. In 2017, KC Scholars made its first scholarship awards to more than 600 students, including 89 adult learners who entered college fall 2017.

KC Degrees supports adults who have some college but no degree who want to return and finish by earning a high-quality certificate or degree. In its first year, KC Degrees supported nearly 400 adult learners, 35 percent of whom enrolled by fall 2017. Four KC Degrees participants have already completed degrees.

Together, KC Scholars and KC Degrees co-convene a postsecondary network of 17 regional higher education institutions. The information in this report is shared with these institutions annually during a quarterly convening each fall.

To have a significant impact on the regional economy — and on the quality of life of those who complete degrees — postsecondary attainment must lead to quality jobs in key industry sectors. Building strong connections between education and industry requires a clear understanding of currently available educational credentials. The 2017 Educational Asset Inventory is the third comprehensive inventory of educational assets in the Kansas City region for five industry sectors that are particularly important to the regional economy. With support from Lumina Foundation, GradForce KC and the Council for Adult and Experiential Learning conducted the first inventory in 2015. MARC and GradForce KC have committed to updating the inventory annually.

The findings in this report are also incorporated in to the Talent-to-Industry Exchange (TIE) labor analyses by sector. The TIE initiative is the signature strategy for KC Rising to grow the talent pipeline and align employer and education stakeholder interests. TIEs enable the region to address specific needs for qualified labor in targeted traded sectors and expand opportunities for disadvantaged students and adults to pursue careers leading to economic self-sufficiency. The TIE process engages the established postsecondary network in its work. TIE reports are available online at www.kcworkforce.org/reports.htm.

Key Findings by Industry Sector for 2017

• The ARCHITECTURE AND ENGINEERING industry tends to hire workers who hold a bachelor’s degree or above, and the proportion of degrees available is aligned with this hiring preference. Industrial engineers are in high demand both locally and nationally, but currently there are limited program offerings in this area. Civil engineering is the leading program sector, but it is harder to fill civil engineering positions locally compared to the nation.

• In the INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY industry, the region’s talent pipeline for specializations that are in high demand continues to improve. For instance, there are more credentials at all levels in cybersecurity this year than in earlier inventories. In order for the region to attract top tech employers and grow existing IT firms, the talent pipeline for this industry will need to grow, especially for computer science credentials.

• There is an increasing demand in the FINANCE AND INSURANCE industry for STEM skills (science, technology, engineering and math). Specifically, individuals with the ability to analyze big data are in increasing demand. The demand for this skill is only expected to grow, but postsecondary offerings in this area are limited.

• The ADVANCED MANUFACTURING industry is expected to have a high replacement demand due to retirements and turnover. The skills that are expected to be in greatest demand include robotics and mechanical engineering. The sector provides good career pathways from the certificate, associate and bachelor’s level with above-average wages.

• In the LIFE SCIENCES sector, there is a growing need for new skills in informatics and interdisciplinary sciences, specifically in animal and plant science. Currently, there are a limited number of credentials in each. As the location for global headquarters and as a global leader in health information technology and animal health, it is important for the Kansas City to create clear talent development pathways in this rapidly growing industry.

Postsecondary Credentials

Throughout the inventory, available programs are categorized by the type of credential a student may earn. General definitions for each credential type are provided below.

Certificate — A formal award certifying the satisfactory completion of an organized program of study at the postsecondary education level. Certificates typically require at least one but less than two full-time equivalent academic years, or from 900 to 1,800 contact hours.

Associate Degree — A postsecondary award that normally requires at least two but less than four years of full-time equivalent college course work.

Minor — An academic award for a student’s secondary field of study or specialization conducted as part of an undergraduate program. Course requirements vary by program and institution.

Bachelor’s Degree — An academic award, also called a baccalaureate degree, that normally requires at least four but not more than six years of full-time equivalent college-level course work.

Master’s Degree — An award that requires the successful completion of a program of postsecondary study beyond the bachelor’s degree. It typically includes at least the full-time equivalent of one but not more than two academic years of work.

Graduate Certificate — An award that certifies the completion of a post-graduate program of study that is more limited in scope than a master’s degree. It typically can be completed in one academic year or one semester.

Doctorate — A Ph.D. or other doctoral degree that requires advanced work beyond the master’s level, including the preparation and defense of a dissertation based on original research, or the planning and execution of an original project demonstrating substantial scholarly achievement.

Credentials Available by Institution Type

• Manufacturing technology, electrical engineering and engineering have the most programs in this industry.

• A new master program in supply chain and operations management was added.

• Installation, maintenance and repair occupations are in high demand. Offerings in robotics and mechanical engineering technology programs (skills required for many of these occupations) are still limited, even though these are considered important skills for the 21st century economy (JobsEQ).

• There were no new programs in millwright or welding — both jobs where a high replacement demand is expected due to both retirements and turnover in the coming years (JobsEQ).

• This industry provides excellent career pathways for certificate, associate and bachelor’s degrees, and jobs with above-average wages.

Information Technology2017 Educational Asset Inventory

Key Observations

• Multimedia, computer science and information systems have the highest number of programs in this industry.

• New programs exist in multimedia, networking and information systems.

• The talent development pipeline for cybersecurity continues to improve across the full continuum of certificate to graduate programs, with two new programs (for a total of 16 total added since 2015).

• There is a reduction of for-profit degree programs due to the closing of Brown Mackie College and the University of Phoenix in Kansas City.

• In order to grow or attract top technology employers, the region is expected to need more information technology talent capacity, specifically in software development.

Life Sciences

Key Observations

• The highest number of programs in this industry are in allied health, nursing and biology, predominately at the bachelor’s levels.

• Allied health programs were added to this year’s inventory as part of the Life Sciences industry.

• There was a small increase in new programs in informatics, but still limited number of credentials available in the region, especially with increasing demand from global headquarters based and growing in the region (JobsEQ).

• In Kansas City and the midwest there is a high demand for medical and clinical lab technologists (JobsEQ), but program offerings to meet this demand are limited.

• Kansas City is a global leader in health IT and animal health through the Animal Health Corridor but offerings in animal and plant science continue to be limited in number at area colleges and universities.

Key Observations

Employers often assume that higher-level credentials, such as a bachelor’s degree, are a proxy for critical thinking skills and other common core competencies they expect to find in job-ready individuals. By mapping desired job skills and competencies to shorter-term, stackable credentials, businesses and educational institutions can provide more opportunities for lower-threshold career entry with high-quality certificate and associate degrees.

The chart below illustrates the balance of entry-level educational opportunities vs. bachelor’s degrees and above for each sector.

International students who earn certain degrees in science, technology, engineering or mathematics (STEM) fields of study may be eligible to add an extra 24 months of Optional Practical Training employment to the 12 months normally allowed after receiving an F1 student visa. This program allows students to remain employed in the U.S. for a full three years after graduation, during which time their employer may apply for an H1B visa in a lottery held each April. About 85,000 applicants are selected for H1B visas each year. Educating international students about the OPT STEM extension opportunity early in their academic career when they choose a major may have a critical impact on future employment opportunities.

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security maintains a complete list of eligible fields of study that fall within the regulatory definition of STEM using the two-digit Classification of Instructional Programs (CIP) codes. The list includes all fields of study in engineering (CIP code 14), biological and biomedical sciences (CIP code 26), mathematics and statistics (CIP code 27), and physical sciences (CIP code 40), as well as related fields of study involving research, innovation or development of new technologies using engineering, mathematics, computer science or natural sciences.
