What is EMSI? Economic Modeling Specialists, Inc. Web-based information resource to aid in planning Regional information culled from over 70 regional, state and national sources Information about the educational and economic needs of a region

Uses for RCCD Program review support Grant writing support Career Technical Education Workforce Development Career Center Economic Development

Components of EMSI Database Economic Forecaster Economic Impact Career Pathways Educational Analyst EMSI GIS

Economic Forecaster Industry Occupation Demographics Economy Overview Overview of industries Occupation Overview of specific jobs Demographics Age, gender, and ethnicity Economy Overview

Economic Impact Input-Output Economic Base Economic Indicators Analyze, rank and compare and run scenarios on clusters of occupations. Economic Base In depth analysis of current state of economy Economic Indicators Analyze the economic indicators in a number of areas for a given region.

Career Pathways Competency Analysis Transitition Workers Shows skills required by a given occupation and compare two occupations based on skill differences. Transitition Workers Use occupational compatibility to help transition workers into/out of industries and occupations. Occupational Analysis View the skills required by a given occupation, compare two occupations based on skill differences.

Educational Analyst Programs Peer Comparison Career Clusters Evaluate, review, and search for new educational programs. Peer Comparison Compare an educational institution to a group of peers. Career Clusters Analyze occupational data in terms of career clusters. Educational Capital Find educational attainment and high-school graduation rates by demographic.

EMSI GIS Selected indicators from each of the modules is mapped geographically

What’s In a Region? User defined Can based by city, zip or county How you define a region will affect the results

Examples of Regions This region shows only the cities of Corona, Norco, Riverside and Moreno Valley

Examples of Regions This region shows only the area included in the McIntyre Environmental Scan

Examples of Regions This region shows only the area included in the Western Riverside Council of Governments

This region shows only the area included in Riverside County Examples of Regions This region shows only the area included in Riverside County

This region shows only the areas included in EMSI Database for RCCD Examples of Regions This region shows only the areas included in EMSI Database for RCCD

An Example…

Occupational Scan Employment Data by number of Jobs in 2002 projected jobs up to 2018 Earnings An occupational scan is a way of not only validating existing careers but developing new careers to support our local community through comparing jobs in a region to a larger reference region like all jobs in the state or the nations EMSI assists with the creation tables of occupation employment and earnings data for a given timeframe, with options for state and national data, education level, and projected new/replacement jobs. Occupation Report: This report can Generate quick reports showing job percentage change, location quotient, and shift share—both current and projected up to 10 years—for any occupation or group of occupations.

Economic Indicators Location Quotient Shift Shares National Effect Occupational Mix Effect Regional Competitiveness Effect Also, this tool that will assist with a labor market analysis of how certain jobs impact the economy. A standard method of regional economic analysis attempts to separate regional job growth into its component causes. The three main causes identified are the “national growth effect,” which is regional growth that can be attributed to the overall growth of the entire U.S. economy; the “industrial mix effect,” which is regional growth that can be attributed to positive trends in the specific industry or occupation at a national level; and the “regional competitiveness effect,” which is growth that cannot be explained by either overall or industry/occupation-specific trends. Shift share can be applied to job decline as well as job growth.

Occupational Comparisons within Industry Highest Ranked Positions Lowest Ranked Positions Compatible Occupations for Transition Workers Industry Clusters From the data on the highest and lowest ranked positions we can explain how a certain occupation fairs in an industry. Also, the inverse staffing report can be run to see what other jobs displaced workers can transition to within an industry. The industry clusters data also shows the secondary expertise of current jobs and other avenues for employment for a person with a certain set of skills. Now, I will proceed with an actual example of an entry-level purchasing career. We had a request for an occupation scan of purchasing careers in the desert region. Thus, for the purposes of this part of the presentation I will utilize zip codes from the desert cities. An entry-level occupation for a purchasing career is the procurement clerk.

Access to the EMSI Limited to trained personnel Work with the Institutional Effectiveness Leeshawn Moore Kristina Kauffman David Torres

Summary RCCD has access to Economic Modeling Software (EMSI) Possible uses include: Program Review for specific disciplines New program development Ongoing environmental scanning Knowing more about our service area, our region and neighboring region Economics, demographics and trainng needs
