SCAN PROVIDES : Recommendations for targeting or enhancing programs that prepare students for the economic conditions predicted for 2023 Projections of job growth for King County 2013 – 23 as industry growth and occupation growth Information on the average earnings and median wages as of 2013 Brief investigation of demand compared to completions (as of 2012) Analysis of demographic changes applicable to educational planning: changes in age cohorts, race/ethnicity, and educational attainment 2

ECONOMIC FORECASTS PROJECTED POPULATION GROWTH ANTICIPATED CONDITIONS

GENERALLY, ECONOMIC FORECASTS ARE POSITIVE  ANTICIPATING 15-16% GROWTH FOR KING COUNTY  Some industries are still suffering from the recession (Finance), while others are still recovering (Construction).  Growth rates vary within industries and occupations: subject of study in this report. 4

POPULATION FORECASTS ARE FOR SLIGHT GROWTH  PROJECTED GROWTH RATES SLIGHTLY SLOWER THAN OVER THE LAST FIVE YEARS:  Washington state 6%  King County 7%  SCCD catchment 5%  Central catchment 5%  North catchment 6%*  South catchment 8% 5

GROWTH IS PROJECTED TO BE HIGHER AMONG SOME GROUPS  HIGHEST GROWTH EXPECTED AMONG A VARIETY OF HISPANIC COHORTS  Taken together, projected to increase by 21% in King County  AVERAGE AGE PREDICTED TO CONTINUE TO INCREASE  Largest increases among 65+ cohorts  Largest working age increases in the cohort 6

Demographic Changes Anticipated for North Catchment, In 2013, 73% of the population was white By 2023, 71% of the population is expected to be white The change will largely occur from increases in Asian American and Hispanic/Hispanic-mixed cohorts 7

Age cohorts will also be shifting Largest growth anticipated among residents over 65 Largest student-age growth is expected in the cohort Student age population, generally, is projected to remain strong 9

RECOMMENDATIONS

Focus strategically on programs and partnerships that target industries with high growth rates and high wages Industries are groups of businesses with similar products and services. Industries are groups of businesses with similar products and services. Employers in fast-growing and high-skilled industries will have the strongest interest in helping to prepare the workers they need. Employers in fast-growing and high-skilled industries will have the strongest interest in helping to prepare the workers they need. Industry groups often support staff available for partnership work, as well as research about their workforce needs.

Full participation in program design by industry partners can result in more workplace application opportunities for students. Full participation in program design by industry partners can result in more workplace application opportunities for students. 12

Since industries represent businesses, companies in these fields are expected to be expanding and hiring. All of them include workers with a variety of educations and all include jobs requiring high skills and paying high wages. Occupation specifics follow. 13

Projections for North are for businesses in Sales, Office/Administration and Food to continue to dominate area employment 14

KING COUNTY GROWTH OCCUPATIONS AND THE MOST COMMON EDUCATIONAL ATTAINMENT 24

KING COUNTY GROWTH OCCUPATIONS AND THE MOST COMMON EDUCATIONAL ATTAINMENT 25

Industries with large numbers of job openings but low pay may still serve as entry points for unemployed/under-skilled job entrants Create job ladders for the entry-level positions so that workers have a clear vision of how they get from entry point to the next progression, and Create job ladders for the entry-level positions so that workers have a clear vision of how they get from entry point to the next progression, and Provide the education and training necessary for that progression. Provide the education and training necessary for that progression. Example: pay-rate increases for First Line Supervisors in multiple occupations -- Sales, Production, Transportation, Construction, Office -- average $8/hr increase in median wages. What do entry- level supervisory occupations have in common? How do workers gain required skill and knowledge? 26

Watch supply and demand Use advisory boards appropriately to help match education and training with employment needs.

EXAMPLE of TRACKING SUPPLY AND DEMAND 28 Sources: EMSI/IPEDS

Ensure that students gain marketable skills 29  All students need to know the basic skills of the modern workplace  Employers still report that applicants/new hires lack adequate computer and computational skills.  All students need to know how to apply their academic knowledge in a workplace  Students need the opportunity to make real world applications of their learning, preferably directly with employers and at worksites, in all disciplines.  All students need to be able to communicate and use soft skills  Employers still report that applicants and new hires are deficient in communication and teamwork skills.  Students need to understand the demand for cultural/language skills  Businesses seek employees with multicultural awareness and second language skills.

Address the demographic changes of King County, particularly the demands of working adults The aging population provides several opportunities: expand options for workers over 45, who were highly affected by the recession. expand options for workers over 45, who were highly affected by the recession. Unemployment rate lower than for younger adults, but it takes longer to regain employment. Unemployment rate lower than for younger adults, but it takes longer to regain employment.

Address the demographic changes of King County (continued)  The rising Hispanic/Latino population is under-enrolled in the colleges. Better understanding of the education and employment objectives of these students is needed.  Growth in the five cohorts that include Hispanic identification, taken together, will increase to form a cohort of 233,435 residents in 2023, and become the third largest cohort overall. 33

Address the demographic changes of King County (continued) And address the needs of nearly 20 percent of the immigrants in Seattle who lack a high school diploma or equivalent. 35

37 Having completed high school gives some assurance that these are potential students who are ready, or who could readily become ready, for credit-bearing course work. Those among them who have already completed some college courses have an even better start at reaching an associate's degree. And there are 533,160 of them.
