The lives of our students &#8212; and our community &#8212; depend on the answers.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But before we explore some possible answers, we need to ask the right questions.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dr. Sullivan&#8217;s presentation to the college on Jan. 4 was inspiring and chock full of ideas (loved the work ethic grades on transcripts!), but these are the five tough questions that got my attention:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><b>(1) Would you send your child to Virginia Western?<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Why or why not? If not, what would change your answer?<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><b>(2) What makes Virginia Western special?<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> What do we offer that is changing lives &#8230; or could be changing lives?<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><b>(3) We are not a university.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> How would we refine\/re-imagine\/redesign our role based on the changing needs of our community?<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>(4)<\/strong> Instead of exclusively focusing on the 4,459 high school graduates in the region, <\/span><b>why don&#8217;t we better serve the 100,000 working adults with a high school diploma or less?<\/b><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><b>(5) Is your program in high demand in our region? <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How might we tweak the program to incorporate credentials that lead to better-paying jobs? What credentials would help people go from making $8 an hour to $15 an hour?<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And if you don&#8217;t know what are considered high-demand jobs, you should read the <\/span><b>Local Workforce Plan<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> by Virginia&#8217;s Blue Ridge Works, paying closest attention to pages <\/span><b>3-19<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The plan identifies <\/span><b>five existing target industries with high job growth:<\/b><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Healthcare<\/span><\/li><li>Manufacturing<\/li><li>Construction<\/li><li>Transportation and warehousing<\/li><li>Financial services<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>It also explains <b>three emerging sectors, <\/b>with a few shout-outs to Virginia Western:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Food and beverage manufacturing<\/li><li>Life sciences<\/li><li>IT<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>You can drill into the wage data and credentialing requirements here:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>https:\/\/vcwblueridge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/VBRW-Local-Plan_Final.pdf<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I&#8217;m looking forward to our <strong>Retention Town Hall<\/strong> on Jan. 11 and future meetings to discuss our challenges together.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And while these ideas are percolating, don&#8217;t forget about a few grant opportunities that could help turn them into reality. If you&#8217;re wondering how you &#8212; an individual faculty or staff member &#8212; can effect change, a grant can be a first step.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>(1) <a href=\"https:\/\/www.virginiawestern.edu\/grants\/2017\/12\/heres-an-idea-for-the-paul-lee-professional-development-grant-what-are-yours\/\">The Paul Lee Professional Development Grant<\/a><\/strong> ($2,500 for the summer) and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.virginiawestern.edu\/grants\/2017\/12\/got-a-workshop-idea-for-the-summer-vccs-paul-lee-grant-applications-due-feb-1\/\"><strong>Paul Lee Workshop Mini-Grant<\/strong><\/a> ( $1,500 maximum).
