Program Demand Gap Analysis The program demand gap analysis compares the regional job demand to current program offerings and reveals potential areas of expansion or contraction. Demand is defined as the average annual openings from 2017-2027, for the educational level the program trains for and below. Supply is the average number of program completers, as reported to IPED’s over a three year period. The difference between these figures represents the “gap” or “surplus.”

Note on Market Oversupply Excess supply is not necessarily an indication that your program needs to scale back. However, it does indicate that you should investigate these programs to ensure your graduates are finding employment. Your graduates could be in demand while graduates of other programs may have a harder time finding employment.

Key Takeaways Agriculture is abundant throughout the region. Many jobs in agriculture industries may be seasonal or for have wages below what the college would want to train for. There are multiple areas where the college could increase the number of graduates. Some potential programs to expand could include welding, business, and automotive programs. The region has a large population with less than a high school degree and within the area there a large swaths of poverty. The college’s programs and accessibility should reflect these issues. Hartnell should consider introducing programs or curriculum that could train students for supervisory roles, dental hygienists, and teachers.
