1. AMTEC “National Center of Excellence in Advanced Automotive Manufacturing” Nat’l Council of Continuing Ed./ Nat’I Council for Workforce Dev. October 23, 2011

2. AMTEC History In 2005, KCTCS submitted a proposal for the purpose of developing an automotive collaborative to the National Science Foundation, which was awarded. KCTCS hosted a flagship meeting in April 2005, in which 27 college representatives and 28 business representatives were in attendance from Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, Tennessee, Texas and South Carolina, to determine interest in the establishment of a National Automotive Center…resulting in the establishment of AMTEC.

3. In 2006, based on success of the NSF Planning Grant, AMTEC was awarded a 2 year $3 million ATE Project that was extended through 2009. In September 2009, AMTEC was awarded a 4 year $5.5 million ATE National Center of Excellence in Advanced Automotive Manufacturing.

4. What We Are Organization: A NSF ATE National Center of Excellence that consist of community colleges and auto industry partners with a common, vision, mission, and goals inaugurated in April of 2005. Vision: A recognized collaboration of colleges and companies working to strengthen the competency and global competitiveness of the automotive workforce. Mission: Create and sustain an innovative, responsive, and standards-based workforce education development system that meets industry skill requirements.

5. National Center Goals Goal 1 - Create business/industry partnerships in delivering core technical education that meets the high priority needs of automotive manufacturers and suppliers. Goal 2 - Increase secondary to postsecondary transition and from postsecondary to employment to meet industry needs. Goal 3 - Implement a collaborative support system to sustain and replicate the AMTEC model. Goal 4 - Create and utilize the automotive manufacturing maintenance assessment for continuous improvement of instruction.

6. The AMTEC Goal To help industry meet the following challenges: Develop current workforce standards for Multi-skilled Maintenance Technicians Develop competency measurement tools Prepare the workforce to be globally competitive Increase workforce productivity Develop a pipeline for the future workforce

21. Virtual Environment Goals Goal 1 - Provide realistic scenarios that maintenance will encounter encompassing single and combined systems. Goal 2 - Move past educational trainers to industrial components with full-scale complexity. Goal 3 - Teach basic and advanced troubleshooting. Goal 4 - Show realistic reference material – teach where to find information.

22. AMTEC Manufacturing Simulation The Basic AMTEC Manufacturing System Simulation is to exactly match the Physical AMTEC Manufacturing Simulator. Module writers define faults that are simulated on the both the physical and virtual machine. Fault scenarios that cannot be simulated on the physical trainer can also be added. Students are able to complete much of it online in whatever location they prefer, but will eventually have to demonstrate these techniques on full-sized, working equipment. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ojTPBeA9Lcw&feature=youtu.be

24. Goal 2 Emerging Career Pathway Model Informed by Review of the Literature Formulated by Team 2 Endorsed at AMTEC Academy Refocused by NSF Site Visit in 2010

25. Review of the Literature Found at least six elements of strong, sustainable career pathways: 1.Institutional and instructional transformation that develop clear linkages and easy transitions between education and training. 2.“Wrap around” support services -- such as counseling, academic preparation, internships, financial aid, to help students succeed; 3.Partnerships that make good use of data to drive planning and implementation. 4.Employer involvement in all phases of the process. 5.Continuous improvement systems. 6.Commitment to sustainability that involves the blending and/or reallocating of funding sources.

26. AMTEC Model Elements Literature Findings For Effective Career Pathway Element Present - Example 1. Employer Involvement in all Phases of the program Governance Body - Boards/ Committee with significant Employers. Curriculum- Competencies, Standards, Labs Recruitment - Plant tours, High school fairs Retention - Mentoring, Internships Funding - Equipment, scholarships, donors Jobs – Internships and Pre or Apprenticeship Opportunities Invested in Continuous Improvement Process, Customer & Consumer Metrics Invested in Governance– Requires Memorandum of Agreement between parties. Invested in Sustainability – Funding, Resources, Advocacy 2. Institutional and Instructional transformation links education and career competencies and training via rigorous program of studies. Connects high school core curriculum (4X4) to college career pathway Connects from workforce to college career pathway Allows for non-credit to credit conversion Values and aligns credentials and stackable industry certifications. 3.Wrap around support services.Provides career guidance, academic counseling, mentor financial assistance, and internships for student success. 4. PartnershipsEmployers, Schools, Colleges, Universities, Government, and CBOs. 5. Continuous ImprovementUtilizes data to improve performance and student success. 6. SustainabilityMakes good use of data to drive planning and implementation that involves the blending and/or reallocating of funding sources.

27. Too many students do not see a clear, transparent connection between their program of study and tangible opportunities in the labor market. Any effort to construct a more effective network of pathways to prosperity will require a sea change in the role of business and other employers. The pathways system we envision would require employers to become deeply engaged in multiple ways at an earlier stage—in helping to set standards and design programs of study; in advising young people; and most importantly, in payoffs in the labor market.
