on Advanced Manufacturing Workforce Development at SUNY Community Colleges  \nPatrick Schumacher Brian Backstrom  \nJanuary 2025  \nABOUT THE AUTHORS  \nPatrick Schumacher is a policy analyst at the Rockefeller Institute of Government  \nBrian Backstrom is director of education policy studies at the Rockefeller Institute of Government  \nSpotlight on Advanced Manufacturing Workforce Development at SUNY Community Colleges  \nIntroduction  \nThe integration of new technologies and techniques into manufacturing—including robotics, artificial intelligence, and data analytics—is helping to refine production processes and create new, cutting-edge products. Jobs in advanced manufacturing are among the highest paying, and private investment in the sector reaches into the billions of dollars.  \nEven so, companies across this sector have struggled to fill positions because of a lack of employees with the requisite skills.1 Stepping up to meet this need, the State University of New York’s (SUNY) community colleges are leading the way in developing advanced manufacturing workforce training programs that attract and help grow these companies, and the Empire State is witnessing a boom of economic activity as a result. Micron Technology is planning to spend $100 billion to build a facility in Onondaga County that will manufacture semiconductors2 while partnering with SUNY Onondaga for workforce development programs.3 Wolfspeed recently opened a $1 billion facility in Marcy for the manufacture of silicon carbide chips4 and is collaborating with Mohawk Valley Community College for worker training and to grow an apprenticeship program.5 Other advanced technology companies investing millions across New York include Siemens Gamesa, Regeneron, and others.6, 7 This surge inactivity is encouraging for students pursuing careers in advanced manufacturing, as opportunities in the field continue to expand.  \nSUNY community colleges are uniquely poised to train students for this sector and serve as engines of workforce development both locally and statewide, owing to their accessibility and affordability. Partnerships with advanced manufacturing companies are helping to develop curriculum, build training facilities, and provide scholarships that create direct pipelines to employment. These partnerships already have been transformative for thousands of students, and are generating enormous benefits for SUNY’s community colleges, for area employers, and for numerous regions across the state. Interest and excitement around advanced manufacturing is playing out not just at SUNY community colleges, but in community college systems from one end of the country to the other. For example:  \n• In Maine, a $75.5 million grant supports short-term training across various fields, including manufacturing.8  \n• A $9.4 million award to 25 community colleges in Illinois will support education and training on the manufacture of electric vehicles.9, 10  \n• In Arizona, community colleges are offering training on semiconductors to a growing and diverse group of students, where persons from underrepresented groups now make up two-thirds of the enrollees in semiconductor programs in the Maricopa Community College System.11  \n• The California Apprenticeship Initiative’s New and Innovative Grant Program provides million-dollar grants to community colleges to help create and expand apprenticeship opportunities in priority and emerging industries.12  \nEach of these advanced manufacturing workforce initiatives are unique, offering the chance for educational systems across the country to learn from each other. SUNY community colleges—with their strong private-sector partnerships and clear pathways to employment—can serve as a model for how to successfully train students in advanced manufacturing.  \nIn May 2023, the Rockefeller Institute of Government assembled a meeting of state, local, and industry leaders to discuss the future of advanced manufacturing in New York State.13 Now, t","cbCaisvpzTZjiVO2","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaisvpzTZjiVO2","pdf",18379989,24,"English","# Introduction\n## Evolution of Manufacturing in New York State\n## Hiring","[{\"question\":\"Why are SUNY community colleges important to advanced manufacturing workforce development?\",\"answer\":\"They are positioned to train students for advanced manufacturing due to accessibility and affordability, and they act as engines of workforce development through strong partnerships and clear employment pathways.\"},{\"question\":\"What kinds of partnerships support the training programs described in the report?\",\"answer\":\"Partnerships with advanced manufacturing companies help develop curriculum, build training facilities, and provide scholarships that create direct pipelines to jobs.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the report connect New York’s manufacturing history to current advanced manufacturing growth?\",\"answer\":\"It contrasts the decline in manufacturing employment in the late twentieth century with a resurgence driven by new technology, which has led to the rise of advanced manufacturing and high-tech industries in the state.\"}]","Spotlight on Advanced Manufacturing Workforce Development at SUNY Community Colleges - January 2025 | PDF",1792056973]
