SECTION A – EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Big Sandy Community and Technical College (BSCTC) is seeking $3,736,990 the Work Ready
Skills Initiative (WRSI) to support the Work Ready East Kentucky Project. Poised with a
strategic plan, a new 15,000 sq. ft. facility (construction begins May 1, 2017), well-established
partnerships with secondary and post-secondary institutions, and a dynamic Workforce
Development approach that has established relationships and partnerships with a broad spectrum
of private-sector employers BSCTC is confident that the Work Ready East Kentucky project will
be one of the premiere economic development projects in the Commonwealth.
A.1.a How Funds Will Be Used for Facilities, Equipment, and 1st Year Marketing:
BSCTC has acquired $4.5 million (a 55% cash match for the project) to construct a
Broadband/Advanced Technology Center on its Pikeville campus. BSCTC is requesting WRSI
funding in the amount of $3,736,990 to equip this new facility with the state-of-the-art
technology, high impact equipment, curriculum and training resources necessary to prepare the
workforce for Kentucky’s businesses now and in the future. In particular, the college plans to
equip the new center’s four high-end information technology classrooms, three flexible work
areas and two multipurpose laboratories. WRSI funds are not being requested for marketing
costs, however BSCTC anticipates an operational expense of $20,000 in its 1st year for marketing
of the project that will be covered from revenue and other applicable funds.
A.1.b Kentucky Workforce Innovation Board (KWIB) Sectors Addressed & Career
Pathways Offered: The new Advanced Technology Center will enable BSCTC to expand
existing programs, launch a new career pathways and programs, and make possible opportunities
for secondary students, adults, displaced workers, traditional students and others. The equipment
proposed through WRSI funding will be used to train students in the following economic sectors,
each of which have been identified by the Education & Workforce Development Cabinet as
priority sectors:

Construction Trades and Transportation/Logistics are not addressed by the proposed project
A.1.c KWIB Sector & Career Pathway Selection/Goals& Desired Outcomes
The rationale for selecting the KWIB sector(s) and career pathways described above is simple –
the selected programs and training offer the best chances for success and sustainable income for
participants in short-term and long-term projections. In most cases, employer-identified needs,
training opportunities and resources are aligned to maximize the impact for the region. The goal
of the project is to provide advanced training to the region’s secondary and adult students on a
scale which is not currently possible, given the current capacity of BSCTC’s Pikeville Campus.
The desired outcome of the project is the placement of participants in good-paying jobs,
especially in those jobs which are, or are projected to be available in the state’s eastern region.
A.1.d Why Do Existing Programs Fall Short?
Existing programs fall short due to a lack of capacity, resulting in a failure to capture the region’s
secondary student population for early career-readiness training. The college has long desired to
incorporate technical training into high school curriculum but has lacked the space and
equipment to do so. Through other funding sources, BSCTC will construct the additional space
to be able to accept these students in its new Advanced Technology Center. The next step in this
vision is the acquisition of necessary equipment for the programs identified in this proposal.
Providing this training to secondary students not only provides early industry-recognized
credentials to them, but also provides a vision for the possibilities which await them through
continuance of their technical education.
A.1.e How Our Proposal Fits into a Regional System of Available Training
The proposed training was determined through a careful review of research conducted by area
stakeholders, as well feedback from the college’s numerous program advisory boards to fit into
the existing regional system of training. Documents consulted include the local Community
Economic Development (CED), Outlook 2020, the KWIB Strategic Plan, EKCEP’s Regional
Strategic Plan, SOAR’s Regional Blueprint for Economic Growth and BSCTC’s Strategic plan.

SECTION B – LOCAL EMPLOYMENT DATA & PROJECTIONS B.1.a Local Unemployment in a 30-Mile Radius, labor force participation and other
economic information.
The Work Ready East Kentucky
project will be physically located
in Pike County, Kentucky and is
poised for regional impact. For
the purposes of providing data
the project team identified seven
counties that are within the 30-
mile radius as indicated in the
grant instructions. The counties include: Floyd, Johnson, Knott, Letcher, Magoffin, Martin and
Pike counties. According the Office of Employment and Training (OET), Kentucky Labor
Market Information (www.kylmi.ky.gov)
information obtained from a data request to the
Kentucky Center for Education and Workforce
Statistics (KCEWS) unemployment ranges from
7.4% to 13.5% in the individual counties, with an
overall average of 8.9% unemployed. According to
notes provided by KCEWS, the unemployment
rates are from the Kentucky Office of Employment
and Training (OET), Local Area Unemployment
Statistics (LAUS) and represent monthly data for
December 2016, which is the most current month
of data available. These rates have not been
seasonally adjusted.
Similarly, the data request to the Kentucky Center
for Education and Workforce Statistics (KCEWS)
for labor force participation within a 30-mile radius
included Floyd, Johnson, Knott, Letcher, Magoffin,
Martin and Pike counties on the following table.
The labor force participation rates
provided are from the United States
Census Bureau, American Community
Survey (ACS), 2011-2015 5-Year
Estimates, Table S2301 and are for the
population ages 16 and older.
Furthermore, the number includes the
entire civilian population, which includes
the population in institutions (prisons,
dormitories, and other group quarters).
According to notes provided by KCEWS the labor force participation rates found on the labor
force table were calculated in a manner that does not match the exact method used by the Bureau
of Labor Statistics (BLS) to

calculate the labor force participation rate for the
United States and Kentucky. BLS uses the
civilian, non-institutionalized population ages 16+
to calculate national and state rates. That
population data is not available at the county, so
KCEWs used the total civilian population ages
16+ to calculate county-level rates. While these
rates won’t match the definition that BLS uses for
labor force participation, they are a reasonable
approximation for most areas and allow for
comparisons between counties. Additionally,
labor force participation rates by county are
provided in the table on the right for your
consideration.
B.1.b Current Posted Job Openings for KWIB
Sectors Addressed in a 50-Mile Radius
of Work Ready East Kentucky Project
For the purposes of providing data the project
identified fifteen Kentucky counties that are
within the 50-mile radius as indicated in the grant
instructions. The counties include: Breathitt,
Elliott, Floyd, Harlan, Johnson, Knott, Lawrence, Leslie, Letcher, Magoffin, Martin, Morgan,
Perry, Pike and Wolfe counties. Occupations selected to include for each KWIB sector was
garnered from the use of the Classification of Instructional Programs (CIP) codes as they relate
to the Standard Occupational Classification (SOC) designations. Furthermore, to arrive at a
realistic snapshot of current posted job opening in a 50-mile radius of the Work Ready East
Kentucky Project the grant team requested data from two sources, as follows:
1) KCEWS generates a list of current online job advertisements. KCEW’s data response
(March, 2017) provides a count of current online job ads for each occupation is also included.
According to notes provided with the KCEWS data request the counts are from JobsEQ, a
proprietary software product from Chmura Economics. JobsEQ provides economic, workforce,
demographic, and training data and analysis. Data in JobsEQ has been externally validated by
the Kentucky Workforce Investment Board (KWIB) and is currently being used by the Kentucky
Center for Education and Workforce Statistics and the Kentucky Cabinet for Economic
Development, among others.
2) The Economic Modeling Specialists, International (EMSI) provides a three-month average
number of unique job postings (Dec. 2016 – Feb. 2017). EMSI uses data from the Kentucky

Office of Employment and Training for its reporting purposes. According to notes provided with
in the EMSI report postings are collected from various sources and processed/enriched by
CareerBuilder to provide information such as standardized company name, occupation, skills,
and geography. EMSI performs additional filtering and processing to validate and improve
compatibility with EMSI data.
B.1.c Five-Year Workforce Demand Data within 50-Mile Radius of Work Ready East
Kentucky Project
Big Sandy Community and Technical College is the primary provider for Nursing education
within the region. As with the national forecast, the Big Sandy Area is anticipating very strong
growth in all healthcare occupations for the foreseeable future. In addition to sharing common
trends such as an overall aging population, the region has seen tremendous growth in its
healthcare facilities during the past decade. For example, one of the college’s current partners in
healthcare training, Pikeville Medical Center (PMC), was recently approved to open an
additional 300 beds1. This increase doubles the current capacity of the hospital. It is noteworthy
that PMC currently offers one of the nation’s highest wage and sign-on bonus packages to
Registered Nurses in the entire country. A nursing graduate from BSCTC may now look
forward to receiving a $25,000 sign-on bonus, hourly wages of up to $45.00, along with second-
to-none health and retirement benefits from PMC. In fact, all area hospitals are acutely in need
of nurses and other healthcare professionals. Job openings are frequently being filled by out-of-
state “Travelers” who earn money in the region, but leave quickly, taking earned income to
spend elsewhere. One of BSCTC’s goals, along with other community economic stakeholders, is
to train, hire, and keep a strong and ready workforce.
Furthermore, to arrive at a realistic snapshot of workforce forecast, or demand, in a 50-mile
radius of the Work Ready East Kentucky Project the grant team examined several relevant
sources including KCEWS data, EMSI, the Big Sandy Area Occupational Outlook to 2020, and
the East Kentucky Works (EKYWORKS) Workforce Analysis document. Each of the sources
offers unique perspectives regarding five-year workforce demand. For instance, EMSI, Outlook
to 2020 and other regional data sets suggests slight to significant growth in the three targeted
KWIB sectors of Advanced Manufacturing, Health Science/Health Care and Information,
Technology (as high as 12,614 new jobs), whereas KCEWS JobsEQ data indicates a negative
growth. The grant team has elected to provide snapshots of the data and information from a
number of sources on the following pages for the committee’s consideration.

The Big Sandy Area Occupational Outlook to 2020 document published by the Kentucky
Educational and Workforce Development Cabinet provided the following highlights of
employment numbers and trends for the five-county region in its November 2014 report:
Big Sandy Highlights Employment is projected to grow from 53,284 to 60,199, a gain of 13 percent.
Total annual job openings are expected to be about 1,947.
Growth in employment will create about 712 job openings annually.
Approximately 1,235 annual job openings will result from separations from the
labor force due to retirement or those who transfer to other jobs.
Thirty-seven percent of job openings will result from growth; the remaining 63
percent will result from separations from the labor force.
The greatest number of annual job openings will be in Office and Administrative
Support Occupations (263) followed by Sales and Related Occupations (235) and
Healthcare Practitioners and Technical Occupations (210).
The highest growth rates among occupational groups are likely to be in Other
Personal Care and Service Workers Occupations (40.2) followed by Occupational
and Therapy and Physical Therapist Assistants and Aides (31.8%) and Personal
Care and Service Occupations.
Furthermore, the Big Sandy Area Occupational Outlook to 2020 document provided by the
Kentucky Education and Workforce Development Cabinet indicates occupations in each of the
priority sectors identified by the Work Ready East Kentucky are projected to yield 1,400 jobs
with approximately 278 annual openings collectively. A summary of those appearing in the top
50 occupations with the most annual job openings in the region through the year 2020 are listed
in a table on the following page by rank for the committee’s consideration.

B.1.d Total Juniors/Seniors Expected to Receive Postsecondary Credit, Credentials,
Certifications, Apprenticeships, etc.
Secondary schools in Pike County are partners in the Work Ready East Kentucky Project.
The secondary partnership will enable the college to permit sizable enrollments of high school
students to further college and career readiness goals. The Superintendent of Pikeville
Independent Schools, Jerry Green, states “To increase the college and career readiness of our
students, Pikeville Independent Schools will proactively partner with Big Sandy Community and
Technical College (BSCTC) to establish seamless pathways for career and technical education
leading to stackable industry-recognized credentials and skills/competencies that empower
students to become immediately employable. Pikeville Independent Schools commit to the
collaboration with Big Sandy Community and Technical College for dual credit opportunities
with a focus on Career and Technical Education (CTE) and Science, Technology Engineering,
Arts, and Mathematics (STEAM). Pikeville Independent Schools anticipates student
participation for these pathways to be approximately 160 students” (See Section C for letters
from partners). Reed Adkins, Superintendent of Pike County Schools, anticipates a 30%
participation rate for students of that that district. (See Section C for letters from partners).
Based on commitments for the Pike County School System and Pikeville Independent Schools, it
anticipated that Work Ready East Kentucky will be able to serve approximately 125 juniors and
seniors (75 juniors/75
seniors) each year from
Pike County schools and
Pikeville Independent. In
five years’ time it is
anticipated that more than
600 juniors and seniors are expected to receive
postsecondary credit,

credentials and/or certifications. Because of varied guidelines and regulations that govern
apprenticeships the current Work Ready East Kentucky project plan does not include these for
students. Internships, however, are possible and the project will continue to work toward
expanded these opportunities, particularly in Advanced Manufacturing.
B.1.e Enrollment & Credentials Granted Annually
The Work Ready East Kentucky project targets three of the five KWIB priority sectors identified
with the Work Ready
Skills Initiative. In the
fall 2016 semester there
were 584 students enrolled
in programs that align
with the three targeted
sector. Fall 2016
enrollment by sector
appears in the chart to the
right.
Over the past three academic years Big Sandy Community and Technical has awarded over 3300
credentials in all five KWIB sectors. In summary the annual average (based on three years of
historical data) for credentials for each of the targeted sectors is, as follows:
Health Sector – 270
Business IT – 265
Manufacturing – 126

With the expansion of programs made possible by the Work Ready East Kentucky project it is
anticipated that completion levels will steadily increase above 30% over the 5 years targeted
for evaluation. Based on commitments for the Pike County School System and Pikeville
Independent Schools, it anticipated that Work Ready East Kentucky will have 125 students made
up of juniors and seniors from Pike County schools and Pikeville Independent. Historical data
and three year averages of credentials awarded in sector noted on the chart below are anticipated
to rise by 30% respectively.
B.1.f Entry-Level Wages for Program Graduates by Occupation:
Data garnered from KCEWS in February of 2017 provides a comprehensive listing of
occupations in the five KWIB sections and wage information. The worksheet provided by
KCEWS contains data on occupational wages in the specified 50-mile radius, including mean,
median, entry level, and experienced, among others. While all occupations were included in the
data request, below is an abbreviated listing of relevant occupations based upon the
Classification of Instructional Programs (CIP) codes as they relate to the Standard Occupational
Classification (SOC) designations for jobs that would be attainable by program graduates and
certificate holders. In short, occupations that have a direct correlation to the programs and
trainings offered are listed below. This data suggests an average entry level annual wage for
individuals completing programs and gaining employment in Information Technology is
$28,700; Health Care/Health Sciences is $24,979; and Advanced Manufacturing is $25,285 and
appear on the following tables for consideration.

Notes provided with the KCEWS data request (the preceding tables) indicated that the
occupational wages listed are based on 2015 annual average wages from JobsEQ. Entry level
wages are defined as the mean wage earned by the bottom 1/3 of wage earners in each
occupation.
The Occupational Employment Statistics and Wages Program (OESWP) provides another
snapshot of industry possibilities. OESWP data estimates that the mean annual wage for Health
Care and Social Assistance in Kentucky in 2015 was $45,881. The estimated entry-level annual
wage was $18,971 and the experienced annual wage was $77,500. Average employment in 2015
was 241,840. The mean annual wage for Information Technology in Kentucky in 2015 was
$44,328. The estimated entry-level annual wage was $18,879 and the experienced annual wage
was $80,677. Average employment in 2015 was 25,910. The mean annual wage for (Advanced)
Manufacturing in Kentucky in 2015 was $43,204. The estimated entry-level annual wage was
$21,832 and the experienced annual wage was $70,849. Average employment in 2015 was
233,080. The following table summarizes the targeted program occupations in the three sectors
based the 2015 OESWP.

TOTAL $3,736,990 $4,500,000 $8,236,990
Total Project Costs for the Work Ready East Kentucky Project (excluding operational costs outlined in Section G herein) are
projected to be $8,236,990. Of the total project costs BSCTC has acquired funds totaling $4,500,000 for the construction of a new
Advanced Technology Center (construction is slated to begin on May 1, 2017) that will serve as cash match for the project (55%). The
WRSI funding request of $3,736,990 represents 45% of the total project costs (excludes operational expenses as these are detailed in
section G for your consideration). While in-kind activity will be associated with the project the level of technology and infrastructure
which BSCTC hopes to include in the facility constitutes a new pathway and therefore makes it difficult to project in-kind with
accuracy. BSCTC is requesting WRSI funding in the amount of $3,736,990 for the Work Ready East Kentucky Project.
Big Sandy Community and Technical College (BSCTC) is requesting funds equip a new facility, an Advanced Technology Center,
with the state-of-the-art technology, high impact equipment, curriculum and training resources necessary to prepare the workforce
Page | 22
Kentucky’s employers need now and in the future, the Work Ready East Kentucky Project. The
Work Ready East Kentucky project (facility and equipment) will enable the expansion of more
than 50 career pathways.
Made possible by WRSI funding the facility will feature the most up-to-date technology and
equipment to provide relevant and cutting edge education for students at the secondary level,
traditional college students, non-traditional learners, and specialized training for adults returning
to the world or work or gaining specific industry certifications and skills and others. In
particular, the college plans to equip the center in a manner that will make best use of its four
high-end information technology classrooms, three flexible work areas and two multipurpose
laboratories. The planned multi-purpose labs will be shared across programs. The first will be a
state-of-the-art Advanced Manufacturing Laboratory which will be used by the Electrical, Fiber-
optics, Broadband, and Advanced Manufacturing Programs. The second will be an Allied Health
and Sciences Laboratory which will contain advanced simulation equipment and integrate
collaborative training within the Nursing, Nurse Aid, Respiratory Therapy, and Physical
Therapist Assistant Programs. As the data within this proposal indicates, the sectors represented
by these programs are anticipated to grow in the Big Sandy area and provide sustainable-wage
employment locally.
The facility will be used for education and training in the following economic sectors, each of
which have been identified by the Education & Workforce Development Cabinet as priority
sectors: 1) Advanced Manufacturing, 2) Healthcare/Health Sciences, and 3) Information
Technology.
The proposed training will leverage the Kentucky Wired project, which will complete the
internet superhighway for the region, and technology as an economic driver, to improve the
region’s financial environment. The launch of the KY Wired Broadband expansion supplies a
major opportunity for business expansion and is an integral part of the Work Ready East
Kentucky proposal. Residents need to develop into tech-savvy consumers to become aware of
the available digital applications that provide convenience, growth, productivity, and
employment to the area. Currently, access to Broadband is inconsistent and/or nonexistent in
certain localities within the region. Additionally, business and industry must also have those
trained in technology to grow into the digital opportunity that the regional expansion of
broadband will yield. The Work Ready East Kentucky project can help achieve positive results
on both fronts. BSCTC is the only educational institution in the college’s service region which is
ready and capable of providing the technology training which this emerging economy requires.
The project’s proposed Advanced Technology Center will provide a multi-purpose training
environment for students who will be the future broadband fiber installers and repairmen, future
technology developers and those who will be assisting businesses and industries with web
design, business applications, cybersecurity, and a range of other technology support services in
the region. Through the addition of state-of-the art advanced manufacturing equipment BSCTC
also envisions growing a CNC machining program that can provide a highly skilled workforce to
meet the needs of an emerging industry. BSCTC envisions a future in which local business will
no longer find it necessary to seek these types of services from providers outside of the region, as
is common in the current environment. The college, along with SOAR and other community
Page | 23
economic development organizations, understands that the region has a strong and ready
workforce, who simply require the training to perform those jobs.
In order to make the most of available resources, the college has worked with architects to design
a center that will house two state-of-the-art, multi-purpose laboratories. The Allied Health and
Science Laboratory will train students in the following programs and/or industry-recognized
certifications: Registered Nursing, Practical Nursing, Respiratory Therapist, Physical Therapist
Assistant, along with Medicaid Nurse Aid and Medication Aid. This laboratory will allow each
program to not only collaborate in joint training exercises, but will also make the best use of
equipment which would normally require duplicate purchases by individual laboratories.
Students from each of these programs will be able to make good use of all the equipment within
the laboratory which will be a highly-efficient method of the required clinical component of
training prior to actual patient care.
Additionally, the simulation equipment for this multi-purpose laboratory will create training
scenarios that will allow students to react to life-threatening situations in which rapid
intervention is required to prevent further physical deterioration or loss of life. Students are
rarely afforded the opportunity to deal with these emergencies while in normal clinical training
and are therefore not ideally prepared to assist when initially facing real-life emergencies
following graduation and employment. Many Nursing programs and Allied Health programs are
finding that the use of simulation equipment results in stronger students, better-prepared to
handle initial real-life emergencies once they have had the opportunity to practice them.
Situations, such as extreme shock or cardiac arrest are both challenging and frightening
situations for new Nurses and other Health professional to deal with. These, however, are
navigated effectively with improved outcomes for patients, once necessary experience has been
gained by healthcare providers. It is therefore, best practice to provide this type of training while
the student remains in school, rather than allowing the first emergency faced by a health provider
to be one involving an actual patient.
Additionally, the multi-purpose Allied Health and Sciences laboratory will allow BSCTC to
open new program offerings, such as the Physical Therapist Assistant for which the college has
received approval, as well as expand its well-established programs in the Nursing and
Respiratory Therapist fields. All of these programs lead to high-demand, high-wage
employment and are accompanied by future projections of strong growth.
D.1.b Line item breakdown of total project cash costs (workforce investment funds
requested plus cash match from partners)
A line item breakdown of anticipated project costs is provided on the following pages. The
budget is organized by sectors and includes a best estimate of costs as have been obtained via
quotes, online pricing and historical data. While space limitations prevent including all of the
documentation. Appendix A of the proposal includes documentation of some of the more
expensive pieces of equipment and instructional materials included in the request for funds for
consideration; otherwise the source of the estimated cost is noted on the budget table in the
source/documentation column.

Clarification on CNC equipment requested as part of the
BSCTC Work Ready East Kentucky Grant proposal
The Work Ready East Kentucky grant proposal submitted to the Cabinet for Education and
Workforce Development on March 16, 2017 is not intended to diminish the efforts or compete with the
eKentucky Advanced Manufacturing Institute, Inc. in Paintsville, KY. The intention of Computer
Numerical Control (CNC) equipment included in the request is to assist Big Sandy Community and
Technical College in providing additional relevant, state-of-the-art equipment to train students in
programs and pathways that lead to credential, diploma or degree. The planned pathways and
programs are intended to enhance and complement existing regional training and resources such as
eKentucky Advanced Manufacturing. Additionally, the proposed Advanced Manufacturing Laboratory
will also provide equipment to develop training that is responsive to business and industry needs to
grow the advanced manufacturing sector in the region through the institution’s career education and
workforce development efforts.
Page | 44
SECTION E – WORKFORCE TRAINING & EDUCATION
DESCRIPTION E.1. Description of the Current and Proposed Workforce Training and Education Offered at the
Facility for which Grant Funding is Sought Big Sandy Community and Technical College (BSCTC) is requesting funds equip a new facility,
an Advanced Technology Center, with the state-of-the-art technology, high impact equipment,
curriculum and training resources necessary to prepare the workforce for Kentucky’s businesses
now and in the future, the Work Ready East Kentucky Project. The Work Ready East Kentucky
project (facility and equipment) will enable the expansion of more than 60 career pathways.
Made possible by WRSI funding the facility will feature the most up-to-date technology and
equipment to provide relevant and cutting edge education for students at the secondary level,
traditional college students, non-traditional learners, and specialized training for adults returning
to the world or work or gaining specific industry certifications and skills and others. In
particular, the college plans to equip the center in a manner that will make best use of its four
high-end information technology classrooms, three flexible work areas and two multipurpose
laboratories. The planned multi-purpose labs will be shared across programs. The first will be a
state-of-the-art Advanced Manufacturing Laboratory which will be used by the Electrical, Fiber-
optics, Broadband, and Advanced Manufacturing Programs. The second will be an Allied Health
and Sciences Laboratory which will contain advanced simulation equipment and integrate
collaborative training within the Nursing, Nurse Aid, Respiratory Therapy, and Physical
Therapist Assistant Programs. As the data within this proposal indicates, the sectors represented
by these programs are anticipated to grow in the Big Sandy area and provide sustainable-wage
employment locally.
The facility will be used for education and training in the following economic sectors, each of
which have been identified by the Education & Workforce Development Cabinet as priority
sectors: 1) Advanced Manufacturing, 2) Healthcare/Health Sciences, and 3) Information
Technology.
The Work Ready East Kentucky project was developed following careful review of the area’s
workforce needs as delineated by numerous regional sources. The complexity of the economic
ecosystem in the Big Sandy Area Development District counties (Floyd, Johnson, Magoffin,
Martin and Pike counties) is reflected in a multi-faceted approach to strategic planning and
research contained within the documentation of its stakeholders. These include the mission and
goals of local secondary education institutions, the ARC Strategic Plan, local Community
Economic Development (CED) research and planning, and aligned with the Big Sandy
Occupational Outlook 2020, The Kentucky Workforce Investment Board (KWIB) Strategic Plan,
A Strategic Transformation of Kentucky’s Workforce System 2013, EKCEP’s Regional Strategic
Plan, SOAR’s Regional Blueprint for Economic Growth as well as BSCTC’s Strategic plan.
Each of the aforementioned documents provide considerable guidance to BSCTC in the
development of the goals and work plan for Work Ready East Kentucky project. Common
themes across the region’s system of training clearly point to an emerging digital industry, as
well as the need to increase workforce training and development, to strengthen businesses and to
Page | 45
promote entrepreneurial engagement. In particular, the vision of Work Ready East Kentucky is
in robust alignment with four of the seven published goals of SOAR, particularly the following:
Goal 1: Increase the availability of affordable high-speed broadband, through fiber, to
business and residents, and increase adoption rates throughout the SOAR region.
Goal 2: Develop our regional workforce to be competitive in the digital economy and
other emerging industries.
Goal 3: To create more and expand existing small businesses within the region by taking
full advantage of the digital economy.
Goal 5: Increase the amount of industrial employment which includes manufacturing,
natural resources, processing, and distribution by expanding existing companies and
attracting new ones.
The proposed training will leverage the Kentucky Wired project, which will complete the
internet superhighway for the region, and technology as an economic driver, to improve the
region’s financial environment. The launch of the KY Wired Broadband expansion supplies a
major opportunity for business expansion and is an integral part of the Work Ready East
Kentucky proposal. Residents need to develop into tech-savvy consumers to become aware of
the available digital applications that provide convenience, growth, productivity, and
employment to the area. Currently, access to Broadband is inconsistent and/or nonexistent in
certain localities within the region. Additionally, business and industry must also have those
trained in technology to grow into the digital opportunity that the regional expansion of
broadband will yield. The Work Ready East Kentucky project can help achieve positive results
on both fronts. BSCTC is the only educational institution in the college’s service region which is
ready and capable of providing the technology training which this emerging economy requires.
The project’s proposed Advanced Technology Center will provide a multi-purpose training
environment for students who will be the future broadband fiber installers and repairmen, future
technology developers and those who will be assisting businesses and industries with web
design, business applications, cybersecurity, and a range of other technology support services in
the region. BSCTC envisions a future in which local business will no longer find it necessary to
seek these types of services from providers outside of the region, as is common in the current
environment. The college, along with SOAR and other community economic development
organizations, understands that the region has a strong and ready workforce, who simply require
the training to perform those jobs.
Additionally, the Kentucky Workforce Investment Board, in its publication Work Smart
Kentucky 2013, notes “Advances in technology and transportation have leveled the playing field
for many businesses in terms of locating their operations. Manufacturing, business services and
many other sectors of the economy are no longer compelled to locate near their markets and
customers. According to economic development publications such as Site Selection, Area
Development and Forbes, community assets such as infrastructure, utility rates and financial
incentives have been replaced by the presence of a skilled workforce as the top determining
factor for most businesses in making location decisions.” This piece of the economic
recovery puzzle is the piece that BSCTC plans to put in place. BSCTC is ready to deliver
decisive action for the following performance indicators put forth by KWIB in the Work Smart
Kentucky document: 1) College Readiness, 2) Education Attainment, 3) Education Alignment, 4)
Sector Based Training Investment, 5) Alternative Pathways, 6) Lifelong Learning, 7) Career
Page | 46
Readiness, 8) Earnings Level and 9) Workforce Quality. The college has focused on three of the
five priority sectors for which it believes it is best positioned to affect change and enhance the
overall strategic plan: Advanced manufacturing, Healthcare/Health Sciences, and Information
Technology. The equipment requested in this proposal will allow the college to increase student
volume and is vital to the overall success of the training. This project will afford many of the
area’s secondary students the opportunity to graduate from high school with a variety of
industry-recognized certifications as well as college credit and a significant step toward a higher
education degree.
In order to make the most of available resources, the college has worked with architects to design
a center that will house two state-of-the-art, multi-purpose laboratories. The Allied Health and
Science Laboratory will train students in the following programs and/or industry-recognized
certifications: Registered Nursing, Practical Nursing, Respiratory Therapist, Physical Therapist
Assistant, along with Medicaid Nurse Aid and Medication Aid. This laboratory will allow each
program to not only collaborate in joint training exercises, but will also make the best use of
equipment which would normally require duplicate purchases by individual laboratories.
Students from each of these programs will be able to make good use of all the equipment within
the laboratory which will be a highly-efficient method of the required clinical component of
training prior to actual patient care.
Additionally, the simulation equipment for this multi-purpose laboratory will create training
scenarios that will allow students to react to life-threatening situations in which rapid
intervention is required to prevent further physical deterioration or loss of life. Students are
rarely afforded the opportunity to deal with these emergencies while in normal clinical training
and are therefore not ideally prepared to assist when initially facing real-life emergencies
following graduation and employment. Many Nursing programs and Allied Health programs are
finding that the use of simulation equipment results in stronger students, better-prepared to
handle initial real-life emergencies once they have had the opportunity to practice them.
Situations, such as extreme shock or cardiac arrest are both challenging and frightening
situations for new Nurses and other Health professional to deal with. These, however, are
navigated effectively with improved outcomes for patients, once necessary experience has been
gained by healthcare providers. It is therefore, best practice to provide this type of training while
the student remains in school, rather than allowing the first emergency faced by a health provider
to be one involving an actual patient.
Additionally, the multi-purpose Allied Health and Sciences laboratory will allow BSCTC to
open new program offerings, such as the Physical Therapist Assistant for which the college has
received approval, as well as expand its well-established programs in the Nursing and
Respiratory Therapist fields. All of these programs lead to high-demand, high-wage
employment and are accompanied by future projections of strong growth.
According to the Big Sandy Area Occupational Outlook to 2020, every program which will be
offered in BSCTC’s Technology Center within the area of Allied Health and Sciences is slated to
fall into the top 50 fastest growing occupations in the Big Sandy Area. The #1 occupation of
expected growth is that of Personal Care Aids which will increase in need by 88.7%. Coming in
Page | 47
at #2 is the Home Health Aid which will grow in need by 73.6%. Physical Therapists/
Technicians, rated at #9, will grow in need by 41.7%. The need for Registered Nurses will
increase by 25.6% and lastly, the need for Respiratory Therapists will increase by 24.6%. As the
area’s primary workforce training facility, BSCTC will be at the forefront in meeting the area’s
growing demand for each of these healthcare practitioners. Having the well-equipped multi-
purpose Allied Health Laboratory will grow the college’s capacity to serve students seeking
healthcare degrees, ensure that our area receives the best trained professionals with the highest
skills attainable to care for our population, and will be a multi-generational investment to ensure
training-match to job availability. This goal aligns perfectly with the Education & Workforce
Cabinet’s vision to provide training to Kentuckians in high-wage, high-demand jobs.
The second laboratory to be housed in the Technology Center is a multi-purpose Advanced
Manufacturing Laboratory. BSCTC is seeking funding for CNC Machine Tooling equipment
which will allow its Advanced Manufacturing Program to train students in the most competitive
manufacturing jobs available in the state. The current economic model provided by EMSI states
that there is “An encouraging amount of job growth in advanced manufacturing industries,
especially in southern states such as Alabama, Tennessee, and Kentucky.”
(.http://www.economicmodeling.com/2015/10/02/defining-advanced-manufacturing-at-the-
industry-level-and-pinpointing-its-growing-hubs/)
EMSI goes on to note that in the Louisville, Kentucky metro area, advanced manufacturing has
grown by 42% since 2011. The Cabinet for Economic Development states that these figures
represent 127,000 jobs for Kentuckians, paying an average of $56,000 per year with benefits. It
is well-known that motor vehicle manufacturing now has a weighty presence in Kentucky. In
2014, Automotive exports in the state totaled $5.9 billion. What is less known by the public is
the state’s rapid growth in the production of Aerospace parts and equipment. Per a 2015 article
in the Lane Report, Kentucky’s chief exports are in the Transportation Sector of the economy
with Aerospace exports leading over the Automotive Industry by a significant dollar amount.
(http://www.lanereport.com/48224/2015/05/kentuckys-exports-are-flying-high-with-aerospace/).
In fact, $7.8 billion of Aerospace products and parts that were exported by Kentucky in 2014.
Between 2013 to 2014 alone, the total number of Aerospace exports grew by 37.5%. More
importantly, the new jobs opening in the Aerospace Manufacturing sector are not a short-term,
Band-Aid solution to the state’s economic difficulties, but are expected to show substantial
growth in the years to come. The International Air Transportation Association foresees an
upward trajectory of Aerospace production in Kentucky for at least the next fifteen years.
BSCTC seeks to become the area’s chief training facility in CNC Machine tooling, which will
lead to employment in both the Advanced Manufacturing and Transportation Sectors within the
state. Additionally, the college is extremely supportive of local businesses who wish to work
hand-in-hand to assist with student training and have the ultimate goal of hiring local residents.
The college understands the importance of bringing these good jobs to the eastern portion of
Kentucky through business-industry cooperation. The college is currently partnering with
American Metal Works, LLC, a manufacturing company located on its Mayo Campus, having
arranged a business incubation agreement between the two partners. This company has plans to
produce Aerospace Parts in the near future and is interested in hiring local residents who meet
the qualification of Advanced Machinists. In fact, American Metal Works anticipates hiring fifty
new employees over the next five years. (A partnership letter from American Metal Works is
Page | 48
included in Section C of this proposal). BSCTC hopes to ensure that a ready workforce will be
there to receive these newly created, well-paying jobs. The funding request in this proposal for
CNC Machine Tooling equipment for the college’s new Technology Center will allow BSCTC
to work closely with American Metal works, and other start-up businesses to create a new future
for the region.
Lastly, the Advanced Technology Center will include the latest IT and Broadband training
models with the equipment for which BSCTC is seeking funding through the WRSI. Again,
BSCTC is at the forefront in education-business (public-private) partnerships which will connect
workforce to training to job availability. The college has witnessed quantifiable, early success
through participation in industry-led training and internship activity. The BSCTC/Interapt
training curriculum hosted at the Mayo Campus of the college accepted the first cohort on Sept.
6, 2016. Forty-nine interns entered the 10-week course, followed immediately by a 6-week
application review and development period in preparation for a 16-week Interapt internship with
the company. At the end of the immersive training period, thirty-four graduates transitioned into
the Interapt internship, which will conclude in April 2017. It is expected that the participants
will move into full employment with Interapt as software and application developers at the
conclusion of the internship period. Additionally, the software and application developers who
are employed by Interapt in late April 2017 will earn starting salaries of around $40,000
annually. As the area’s leader in Information Technology Training, BSCTC hopes to create new
and lasting partnerships with business, not only locally, but on a global scale as well. These
opportunities will be enhanced by the Kentucky Wired project which stresses technology as an
economic driver to improve the region’s financial ecosystem. The launch of the KY Wired
Broadband expansion is a major driver of opportunity for jobs and economic growth in the
region. The momentum created in the Technology Sector will reduce the “brain drain”
commonly seen when skilled individuals are forced to leave the region due to a lack of
specialized job opportunities. Those employed in the Technology Sector may frequently perform
all job duties from home, keeping their skills and wages in the area’s economy. It is no longer
sufficient to simply train the region’s workforce. It is becoming increasingly important for the
college to assist in bringing companies with employment opportunities to the Big Sandy area.
According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, there are over half a million unfilled jobs in
Information Technology (IT) across all sectors of the economy. These IT jobs make up
approximately 12 percent of roughly 5 million job openings, making IT one of the largest
occupational categories for open jobs. BSCTC fully realizes the potential of technology
partnerships and the opportunities it provides for the areas workforce. Amazon Web Services
has expressed intense interest in partnering with BSCTC to achieve an industry-certified
workforce capable of accepting jobs which are currently being filled by overseas employees as a
matter of necessity. With its new Technology Center, the college will be able to produce the
tech-savvy IT graduates that global companies desire.
Big Sandy Community and Technical College has been working diligently for several years to
appropriate funds to expand capacity at its Pikeville location. Currently, the campus has the
largest student enrollment of its four campuses and the need is great. The college has a
significant match toward the project but wishes to stress the importance of equipment funding to
complete the development and offer programs that train on state-of-the art, industry relevant
equipment. BSCTC remains the area’s premier institution for workforce training. As the first
Page | 49
Technical college opened in Kentucky in 1939, the college has a well-established history of
workforce training and has a proven record for quality education and job placement. As good
stewards, BSCTC will be making the most of every dollar spent on the new facility using the
multi-purpose labs and collaborative training methods.

Transfer Programs
Adult Learner programs (adults & more)
Middle School Students: Big Sandy Community and Technical College strongly believes in early
childhood engagement of students to assist with the formation of ideas for job and career readiness.
The college provides career fairs for students in the middle school level in which the children may
visit various programs which fit their interests. Students are offered the opportunity to engage
instructors, ask questions, and most importantly, explore many laboratories in order to see actual
students in training. Often, the children are permitted to handle or work with various pieces of
equipment, depending on safety factors. As an example, children choosing to explore the field of
Nursing are taken into the Nursing laboratory to see anatomy models, to handle mannequins, and
to use stethoscopes and listen to a friend’s heart beating. These types of hands-on explorations are
extremely valuable for children who are at the age when one begins to consider personal interests
and career possibilities.
High School Students: Currently, secondary students receive dual credit/postsecondary credit
with partnerships that BSCTC has established with local high schools and Area Career and
Technical Centers. The Early College Academy, which was established by BSCTC five years ago,
allows Juniors and Seniors from area high schools to achieve an Associate’s Degree in Arts,
Sciences, or both before completing their Senior year. Additionally, once the college’s new
Technology Center is complete, BSCTC will be accepting high school students for training in
Technical areas. These Juniors and Seniors will attend regular high school classes in the mornings
and transfer to the college in the afternoons to train in the program of their choice. Not only will
these students graduate from high school with valuable Technical Certifications, they will also
have the advantage of applying the certifications earned toward a full degree within that program
following high school graduation.
Adult Learners: Adult learners have historically been received with open arms at BSCTC. The
college understands the dilemma that faces working adults who seek to return to school or to
acquire additional training and has offered courses designed to fit those with home, work, and
family obligations. The college’s new Technology Center, which will open on the Pikeville
Campus, will expand capacity to allow for additional students and will be in operation during days,
evenings, and weekends, to meet the needs of adult, non-traditional and traditional students.
Long-Term Unemployed/Non-Traditional Learners: The college has a particular concern for
the area’s long-term unemployed and non-traditional students. BSCTC understands that displaced
workers have family and financial obligations which will simply not allow them to pursue
traditional degrees over a long timeline. The college has created innovative pathways and
educational offerings which provide either accelerated learning, short-term certifications, or both.
The college has partnered extensively with businesses, SOAR, EKCEP, and others to connect
displaced and non-traditional learners with real-time employment opportunities which require
short-term, immersive training. Additionally, paid internships are frequently offered to allow
students to earn while they learn.

E.1.e Description of Participant Opportunity Acceleration via Program
Students of all ages are offered the option of selecting valuable certifications in many programs
which, of themselves, are desirable to employers in many areas. Additionally, these certifications
may be stacked together at the student’s own pace to achieve a higher degree at any time. Often,
the student may begin a new career pathway through Workforce Development, attaining one or
more industry-recognized certifications, and choosing later to pursue more intensive education in
the field chosen.
E.1.f Description of Credit, Certificate, Credential, Apprenticeship, and/or Degree
Participants Will Receive
BSCTC is able to offer a number of academic credentials including:
Associate in Arts (AA) and Associate in Science (AS) degree programs prepare students for
transfer to four-year institutions. Associate of Applied Science (AAS) degree programs develop
skills and competencies appropriate to the workforce and also provide transfer opportunities to
four-year institutions.
Diploma: A diploma program is designed to prepare students for technical employment within a
one- to two-year period (36-60 credit hours). The total number of credit hours for the diploma
must not exceed those required for a degree in the same program of study. A prescribed program
of technical and general education courses is designed to prepare students for a specific job title.
Diploma programs provide preparation for a specific occupation, credit toward an associate
degree, and continued training opportunities for certificate program graduates. The diploma
program contains general education courses emphasizing the skills identified in the SCANS
(Secretary’s Commission on Achieving Necessary Skills) report that are critical to entry-level
workforce success for persons prepared at the diploma level.
Certificate: The primary purpose and features of certificate programs of study are to provide
marketable, entry-level skills. Certificates qualify students to take external licensure, vendor-
based, or skill standards examinations in the field. If standardized external exams are not
available in the field of study, certificates prepare students at skill levels expected of employees
in an occupation found in the local economy. In general: 1) Certificates address one or more
general education competencies; 2) Certificate curricula is approved through the KCTCS
Curriculum process, and 3) Certificates will be applicable toward at least one associate degree.
Continuing Education Courses: Continuing education courses can be either credit or non-
credit and are designed to meet the needs of the labor market and persons preparing to enter the
workforce. They can also supplement knowledge and skills for initial employment or job
advancement. They are developed to meet the lifelong learning needs of the general public by
providing short-term training, retraining, or upgrading of skills for employment or job
advancement.
Customized Industry Training: At the request of business and industry, Workforce
Development assists in the development and implementation of customized training for
prospective and current employees. A specialized training agreement is developed that specifies
the duties and responsibilities of the college and the company and may include the awarding of
Page | 55
college credit. In addition to full-time programs, KCTCS colleges provide short-term training
courses to meet specific labor force needs and demands.
Scheduling and delivery models for training and education programs include:
Online courses
Learn-on-demand modules
Day courses
Night courses
Industry Training
Internships
Short Term Training Programs
8-week and 12-week course
schedules
Public-private partnerships that
result in paid training for workers
(such as InterApt)
& more
Apprenticeships/Internships:
Because of varied guidelines and regulations that govern apprenticeships the current Work
Ready East Kentucky project plan does not include these for students. Internships, however, are
possible and the project will continue to work toward expanded these opportunities, particularly
in Advanced Manufacturing.
In particular, EKCEP has committed to exploring internship and apprenticeship funding and
opportunities as existing programs expand and new programs are created through the Work
Ready East Kentucky program. The combined efforts of BSCTC and industry partners are
valuable assets that will advise and assist the Career Education and Workforce Development in
planning and launching future career pathways and training opportunities for secondary students,
adults, displaced workers, traditional students and others.
An example of some of the innovative partnerships the College has constructed is the
collaboration with TechHire Eastern Kentucky (TEKY), Eastern Kentucky Concentrated
Employment Program, Inc. (EKCEP) and Interapt, a Louisville-based technology firm. This
partnership provides paid internships to BSCTC students, many of whom were displaced by the
coal industry, as well as jobs with the company following joint training in computer coding by
both Interapt and the college.
American Metal Works is a short to medium run machine shop located in Paintsville, Kentucky.
The company can accommodate both small and higher volume orders. Since machine shops rely
on highly skilled operators of CNC (Computer Numerical Control) machining equipment, they
are going to be located in BSCTC’s Start-up Launchpad at the Mayo Campus and will be
establishing internships in the area of CNC. Over the course of the next two years it is
anticipated that the company will acquire the skilled workforce to enable its successful
transition to a permanent location. Its permanent location is planned for a site already owned by
the company in Pike County, Kentucky – this county is also the home of the planned Work
Ready East Kentucky project. As stated in the partnership letter, provided in Section C of this
proposal, American Metal Works is committed to employ 50 more individuals in the upcoming
years. This newly forged partnership is another demonstration of BSCTC’s commitment to
transform Career Education and Workforce Development through public/private partnerships
and collaboration with business and industry.
Page | 56
Furthermore, this project will future-proof the region by embedding internships and
apprenticeships into career education and workforce training. These pathways provide
stackable and latticed credentials and transferable skills that allow graduates to earn family
sustainable-wages within the five priority growth sectors noted by the Cabinet. The College
recently received approval for seven new credentials and expanded capacity is required to on-
board these programs.
Career Education and Workforce Development:
Planned programs and training that will be available in the Technology Center provided for as
part of the Work Ready East Kentucky project are cross sector and include elements which will
impact all industry sectors. While specific curriculum development of proposed new programs is
pending it is important to note that training and education programs that will utilize these
planned spaces in the Technology Center (advanced manufacturing lab, state-of-the-art
information technology classrooms and multifunctional allied health lab) will include high
school students, traditional and non-traditional college students, adults, displaced workers as well
as business and industry specific training opportunities.
Customized workforce training and education that is relevant to the employer needs of the region
include fiber optics and broadband technology and other information technology occupations,
STEM skill development for healthcare and the health sciences and skill sets for advanced
manufacturing training.
To respond to the area demands for high-wage, high-demand jobs in allied health, the college
will need a laboratory that exceeds the industry norms for healthcare. Hospitals have indicated a
desire for cross trained entry level employees such as nurse aids, phlebotomist, pharmacy
technicians that may consider a pathway to associate’s degree nursing. The laboratory is a much
needed addition to ensure students are exposed to advanced pathways in the medical field.
Finally, table E.1.f. provides an overview listing of the pathways, the number of credit hours
earned and if the pathway culminates in a certificate, diploma, and/or an associate’s degree and
serves as an overview of the workforce training and education that will be offered (in fact,
expanded) at the facility for which Big Sandy Community and Technical College is seeking
funding to support through the WRSI. The table is organized alphabetically by industry sector
and pathway name. Official approved curriculum for the programs is already in place and
additional specific programs can be referenced in the Kentucky Community and Technical
College System catalog found at http://www.kctcs.edu/~/media/System_Office/student/2016-

Degrees via Program
BSCTC’s delivery of the career pathway opportunities make it possible to offer stackable
industry-recognized certifications in every industry sector as well as certificates, diplomas and
associate degrees. It is the goal of BSCTC to ensure that all certificates and workforce training
will result in become stackable and transferrable into degree bearing programs (diploma and/or
associate degree programs). In addition, BSCTC is continually pursing the transferability of
many associate degree programs towards specific baccalaureate programs through partnerships
with regional institutions. Currently, BSCTC has well established 2+2 programs with several
regional institutions including Eastern Kentucky University, Morehead State University,
University of Pikeville (U-Pike) and Asbury University and has even more 2+2 programs in
various stages of planning.

Increase web presence for BSCTC
Target marketing communications for adult, non-traditional prospective students
Place emphasis on student success stories (particularly during registration/enrollment
periods)
Continue to improve institutional identity and branding
Page | 64
The Marketing Plan for the Work Ready East Kentucky program will be built to cover all
mediums of media, targeting secondary students, traditional students, adult learners as well as
parents/guardians, those of influence, those who are affluent, and those that have clout. The goal
is to keep the college’s programming front and center as an operation that goes beyond its walls
(into communities, secondary schools, Kentucky Career Centers, etc.) and never closes its doors,
training secondary and traditional students by day and adults by night, offering weekend courses,
and exploring innovative scheduling and delivery models to engage learners at every level. A
brighter future will only happen if we create it.
The total budget for marketing is $20,000 annually, or $100,000 over the five-year period (2017-
2022.) The following table provides a summary anticipated quarterly and annual costs for
marketing the Work Ready East Kentucky project, as well as a five-year total. It is anticipated

F.2 Career Promotion Plan for Secondary Students
In the past, high school guidance counselors throughout the region have been key contacts for
Big Sandy Community and Technical College’s established dual credit and early college
academy programs. As a result of these established relationships BSCTC is confident in
Page | 66
asserting that high school guidance counselors will gladly partner with Big Sandy Community
and Technical College to promote careers among secondary students.
Furthermore, working hand-in-hand with staff at the college to promote careers and enroll
students in programs and pathways available through at the Advanced Technology Center
directly correlates with secondary school requirements for meeting the Commonwealth’s
College/Career Readiness benchmarks. (See Section A for listing of industry sectors and career
pathways). Specifically, the planned programs and trainings made possible by the Work Ready
East Kentucky Project will help secondary schools meet the Career Ready component of
College/Career Readiness by showcasing technical programs and degree pathways and creating
new pathways and to achieve industry-recognized career certificates for secondary students. (See
also Section A for an overview of the sectors and subsequent pathways that will be expanded to
include secondary students as a result of the proposed project). The Commonwealth’s Career
Ready status for a high school graduate is the completion of a next step toward a chosen career -
whether it is entry into the workforce or enrollment in a post-secondary program to obtain a
credential or an industry certification. College/Career Readiness of secondary school students
and school benchmarks to meet the standard are measured by three key data elements which are,
as follows:
The number of students who meet Council on Postsecondary Education system-wide
benchmarks for Reading (20), English (18) and Mathematics (19) on the ACT
The number of students who pass the COMPASS or KYOTE college placement tests
The number of students meeting career-ready academic (ASVAB, ACT or Work Keys)
or technical (KOSSA or industry-recognized career certificate) benchmarks
In essence, for secondary high school counselors the Work Ready East Kentucky Project directly
addresses the technical benchmarks of the College/Career Readiness standards and will result in
an increase in the variety and availability of industry-recognized career certificate pathways for
secondary students. Additionally, the planned programs will indirectly impact other key
indicators through available student services support and program enhancements that are
embedded in the institution’s current delivery system.
Within the Big Sandy Community and Technical College service area there are twenty-six
secondary schools. The schools are comprised of the following: fourteen (14) public high
schools; seven (7) technical schools (five area technology centers and two career and technical
centers); two (2) alternative schools; and three (3) private schools. Through recruitment efforts
involving BSCTC faculty and Workforce Solutions, guidance counselors would be supportive of
the promotion of careers and degree pathways via the following efforts:
Participation in Operation Preparation Events
Operation Preparation is a week-long event where schools promote College/Career
Readiness with students. BSCTC can deliver career related presentations and Workforce
Solutions employability training.
Page | 67
Participation in College Fairs
Other than KYACAC (Kentucky Association for College Admissions Counseling)
sanctioned college fairs, most high schools welcome program specific demonstrations at
college fairs.
BSCTC Faculty Visits to High School and Technical Center Classrooms
BSCTC faculty would reach out to secondary counterparts with invitations to speak to
students about careers and the credentials required by business and industry.
Technical Program Demonstrations During Open House Events
BSCTC offers Open House Events during which high school students tour various
campuses to visit program laboratories and classrooms. Students are welcomed by
faculty of participating programs and are encouraged to ask questions about the program
and career involved, such as general occupational questions, wages, and job expectations.
Secondary school visits to Technical Programs and planned Makerspaces on
BSCTC Campuses
BSCTC is planning for the creation of a Makerspace in which secondary students will
participate and engage various tools and technologies.
The Individual Learning Plan (ILP)
Counselors in area school utilize an individual learning plan software program to
facilitate college/career advising with students.
Annual High School Counselors Luncheon
The luncheon will be an avenue to update counselors regarding technical programs,
support services and academic partnerships available at BSCTC.
F.3 Plan to Promote Student Engagement via Student Organization & Extra-curricular
Activities (e.g. KOSSA)
Student engagement at Big Sandy Community and Technical College has been for many years
predominantly and traditionally focused upon increasing academic achievement, building
relationships, and creating a sense of belonging for the traditional/non-traditional student.
Because our focus has primarily been on college age students, Big Sandy Community and
Technical College, (BSCTC) plans to build even stronger relationships with high school students
in the local Area Technology Centers, (Millard, Belfry and Phelps).
Students embrace learning which allows for choices and which offers subjects that peak their
interest. When students feel cared for, they reach for dreams that promote or engage their
learning. BSCTC has reengaged its technical students by promoting a tried and true program of
training, program awareness, and leadership through Skills USA and the National Technical
Honor Society as a way to allow technical students to thrive through friendly competitions,
relationship building, and learned skills sets that promote their ability to be successful.
Over time, student engagement at BSCTC has focused more on a broad implementation as a way
to manage student success and persistence, while engaging students to be more proactive in their
own education. BSCTC has developed, and will continue pursuit of a strong vibrant branch of
Page | 68
the student organization, Skills USA, at the three local ATC’s to promote and enhance learning
in a knowledge-based society. BSCTC will also work with the local Early College Academies
that consist of both juniors and seniors who are seeking to advance their educational
opportunities in both general education and technical programs.
BSCTC will begin this new endeavor by holding monthly meetings with faculty members from
both the ATC’S and BSCTC to build strong partnerships, cultivate curriculum to promote the
technical programs and to prepare students to be college and career ready. Students will be
working in teams, holding local competitions and traveling to other schools to practice their
talents in preparation for the state and national championships. BSCTC will provide funding for
Skills USA membership fees and uniforms, all of which will promote student engagement
through organizations and grow program awareness while building student self-confidence.
Currently, the college supports 9 student clubs and organizations and 4 student academic
organizations appealing to a wide variety of student interests and academic pursuits:
Student Clubs and Organizations: •Baptist Campus Ministries
•BSCTC Academic Team
•Christian Student Union
•Criminal Justice Club
•Gay Straight Alliance
•Karate Club
•Multicultural Student Organization
•Science Club
•Skills USA
Academic Organizations:
•KANS (Kentucky Associations of Nursing Students)
•Phi Theta Kappa (Academic Honor Society)
•Student Government Association
•National Technical Honor Society
Each of these individual organizations are currently promoted on the college’s website as well as
through faculty/student engagement on campus. The colleges chapter of the International Honor
Society, Phi Theta Kappa, sends delegates to all regional, state, and national competitions and
has won numerous honors. This student organization promotes academic excellence, leadership,
college transfer, and professionalism. The college supports this organization financially, as well
as providing the students with their own office equipped with computers, printer, and other
technologies.

SECTION G – OPERATIONAL FINANCES & SUSTAINABILITY
PLAN
G.1 Five-Year Operational Financial Plan
Graphics on the following page outline the anticipated revenue/funding for the Work Ready East
Kentucky project as well as the expenses related to the anticipated growth of each of the
programs – delineated by sector with a running total. You will find on the following pages the 5-
year financial plan for sustaining the workforce training and education that will be offered at the
new Advanced Technology Center. The financial plan is based on tuition revenue generation
from new programs, and non-credit revenue from the planned Work Ready East Kentucky
project as outlined in the Executive Summary and Section E of this proposal.
The tuition revenue is based on a projected number of students per program cohort at the current
tuition rate of $156 per credit hour for the first year. A tuition increase of an additional $3 per
credit hour per year was utilized to project revenue/funding streams for the programs in each of
the subsequent years. The initial enrollment is based on the projected new participants that will
be created by the Work Ready East Kentucky Project housed in the Advanced Technology
Center. Subsequently, increased enrollment and projected tuition revenue were utilized to arrive
at estimations for years two through five of the operations plan.
The total projected revenue (funding) stream over the 5-years of the Work Ready East Kentucky
project period totals $5,796,045, which is a favorable indication of the sustainability of the
proposed training and education program enhancement and new offerings.
Similarly, the expenses found on the following pages are based on projected costs for instructors,
materials, utilities and basic operational costs. Personnel costs are based on current staff salaries
and related benefits of instructors in similar positions within the college. The total projected
expenses for the increased program offering totals $5,796,045, which does not exceed the
revenue projection and is therefore a favorable indication of the sustainability of the proposed
training and education program enhancement and new offerings.
Examination of revenue/funding streams represented on the following pages and expenses
suggests that the expanded programs represented in the proposal are sustainable at BSCTC over
a five-year period.

G.2 Recruiting Plan for Credentialed Teachers & Adjunct Faculty
As part of the Kentucky Community and Technical College System (KCTCS), BSCTC is
afforded a variety of systems support and resources for the recruitment and credentialing of
teachers and adjunct faculty. BSCTC’s academic, technical, Career Education and Workforce
Development programs have active faculty and instructor recruitment and credentialing activities
embedded into day-to-day operations of the institution. BSCTC’s Office of Strategic
Communications utilizes a variety of marketing strategies designed to recruit students, faculty
and staff. The institution’s Human Resources Department has established faculty and staff
recruitment stratagem which will be leveraged for the Work Ready East Kentucky project.
Faculty are recruited utilizing national publications (Higher Ed Jobs) and statewide utilizing the
diversity publications along with local advertising in the five-county area, on the KCTCS and
BSCTC’s websites. In-deed.com re-posts employment opportunities advertised on the KCTCS
Job Seekers page. Faculty are hired based on meeting the Southern Association of Colleges and
Schools Commissions on Colleges (SACSCOC) credentialing recommendations which are
embedded into the selection and hiring process at the College. BSCTC’s Career Education and
Workforce Development maintains close relationships with area business and industry leaders
and maintains advisory groups representative of a number of industry and business sectors.
Often, the advisory groups are an active body for recruitment of highly skilled, trained and
credentialed individuals to teach in the technical and workforce programs. The Career Education
and Workforce Development programs actively work with industry credentialing and testing and
job postings generally list prerequisite standards for appropriate credentialing; this is reinforced
in the College’s selection and hiring processes to ensure high levels of skills of the faculty and
staff for respective programs and fields of study. The recruitment and credentialing of adjunct
faculty is subject to the same standards, processes and trainings which are embedded in
BSCTC’s processes and governed by KCTCS and BSCTC policies and procedures. Below are
key points regarding recruitment and credentialing of faculty that are specific to the Work Ready
East Kentucky project:
Recruitment:
Technical faculty will be recruited from business and industry and will hold superior
experience in the field in addition to accreditation requirement.
The Work Ready East Kentucky project will utilize recruiting services with proven track
record for soliciting exceptional adjunct in the areas of allied health, electricity,
information technology, business administration and other growing fields.
The Work Ready East Kentucky project will work with area health care providers, such
as Highlands Regional Medical Center (see partner information in Section C) and others
to ensure healthcare faculty and adjunct faculty meet the rigorous demands of educating
students in the areas of nursing, certified nurse aid, phlebotomy, pharmacy technician and
other allied health academic and technical programs.
Credential of Faculty
The Work Ready East Kentucky project will utilize experiential learning, whenever
possible, to ensure that faculty will have skills above the norm for business and industry
training.
Page | 73
The Work Ready East Kentucky project will utilize the Teaching, Motivation and
Innovation (TMI) Center to encourage and support faculty to gain industry credentials
relevant to current labor trends. The TMI center is a BSCTC resource that focuses on
faculty and staff professional development.
Faculty, adjunct faculty and instructors have professional development opportunities
annually.
The Work Ready East Kentucky project will utilize BSCTC’s established Performance,
Planning, and Evaluation (PPE) system to help ensure high quality instruction, relevant
credentialing, pertinent skill sets and professional development of faculty and staff are
examined on a regular, systemic basis.
Finally, the Work Ready East Kentucky project faculty and instructors will work toward
establishing opportunity for externships that will place them in business and industry for a
semester (on a rotational basis) in an effort to continue to learn and adapt their programs to
current labor market demands.
G.3 Responsibility for Project Facility Maintenance
The project equipment will be owned, operated and maintained by Big Sandy Community and
Technical College (BSCTC). The college has well-established procedures and processes in place
for structural maintenance as well as faculty and staff with experience to oversee day-to-day
operations and maintenance. The processes in place include established Fixed-Assets tracking of
assets for the lifetime of the assets beginning at the purchasing process and reinforced with
annual reviews and audits of fixed assets. The Pikeville Campus of Big Sandy Community and
Technical College has an assigned Campus Coordinator who reports directly to the President/
CEO of the college. The Campus Coordinator has authority to respond to any structural or
material issues which may arise during the course of construction or following the completion of
the project. In addition, the college has the proven experience, personnel, and procedures for the
management of finances, construction, and safety encompassing all phases of the project from
beginning construction throughout completion and management/ maintenance of the building.
Among these personnel are the college’s President/ CEO, the Chief Financial Officer, Campus
Coordinator, Maintenance and Operations Staff, and the college’s Safety Team. Additionally,
as a co-principle investigator BSCTC’s Dean of Information Technology and Facilities
Management, John Herald, will provide oversight of the construction elements of the Work
Ready East Kentucky project and facilities management. Dean Herald and college personnel
within the department will be actively involved with the architects and engineers work during the
construction phase of the project, as well as continuing maintenance into the future.
Additionally, the Dean of Career Education and Workforce Development will provide oversight
of the Work Ready East Kentucky project for the planned training and education programs.

G.5 Demonstrated Experience/Success for Training, Upkeep and Construction
Big Sandy Community and Technical College (BSCTC) has served the Big Sandy region of
Kentucky as a community college, formerly the Prestonsburg Community College, since 1964
and has provided technical education through one of its component schools, the Mayo State
Vocational/ Technical School, since 1937. BSCTC, has a tradition of excellence, experience
and success in training, upkeep and construction projects that spans more than 75 years. Over
the years the College has consistently demonstrated experience and success in providing training
and education programs as well as sustaining and maintaining physical facilities that provide a
pleasant and safe learning environment.
Business and industry leaders are engaged with BSCTC’s Career Education and Workforce
Development programs which have yielded positive feedback from partners and outstanding
results. Jim Hayes, president of the Fiber Optics Association (FOA), added: “FOA is very
pleased to be working with Big Sandy Community and Technical College. Fiber optic
communications is the No. 1 priority for communities in the 21st century. It powers the future
economy and brings economic development to those communities which recognize its
importance." BSCTC’s Fiber Optic Technology program has awarded 367 certifications to
students in our Workforce Solutions Fiber Optics training. The 127 students who have
completed this training has a 99% pass rate. The Fiber Optic Association (FOA) training at
BSCTC has attracted students from eleven different states.
In the automotive technology program at BSCTC students had a 100 percent pass rate on the
National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence (ASE) exit examination, the test is a
comprehensive, nationally recognized assessment tool.
During 2015 more than 222 industry-recognized certificates and 36 diplomas were awarded to 58
students who completed the Career Education and Workforce Development Electricity programs.
Air Conditioning Technology programs yield similar results with the graduating class in May of
2016 achieving a 95% pass rate on the Kentucky State Journeyman exam, a standard for the
industry certification. Moreover, 100% of these 2016 graduates received employment in HVAC
business and industry.
Another program, the Lineman program launched its first class in July of 2016 on the Hager Hill
campus of BSCTC. Administered by the Career Education and Workforce Development Office,
participants are receiving world-class training in fields that are in demand and provide a

Similarly, BSCTC has a long history of success with allied health programs. An example of this
success can be seen in is the Integrated Dental Hygiene/Dental Assistant Program. Students who
complete the Integrated program are awarded an Associate of Applied Science degree from
BSCTC. In collaboration with BSCTC the Dental Hygiene Integrated Program is a dual campus
program and also serves Somerset Community College. As a result of the dual campus program
integration the dental hygiene program not only attracts students in the five-county region of
Floyd, Johnson, Martin, Magoffin and Pike Counties but students from Adair, Casey, Clay,
Cumberland, Jackson, Knox, Laurel, Lincoln, McCreary, Pulaski, Rockcastle, Russell, Wayne
and Whitley counties as well. The Integrated Dental Hygiene/Dental Assistant program has
graduated over 200 students since its inception. The program has a 94% pass rate for first round
Southern Regional Testing Agency (SRTA) board examinations which rises to 100% when
students successfully complete their second round SRTA board examinations. Moreover, the
Integrated Dental Hygiene/Dental Assistant program has a 100% industry job placement rate for
students who complete the program.
An additional example of the College’s commitment to excellence and success in training
program is the Associate Degree Nursing (ADN) program. The program has been in existence
since the 1970s and continues to place graduates in high wage jobs within the region. For those
ADN graduates that stay within the region, there is an 100% job placement.
Currently with four campus locations, BSCTC sustains and maintains 17 buildings comprising
466,458 sq. ft. that are located on 72.8 acres and have a value of over $67 million. This is
accomplished through an organizational structure which focuses on the adequate staffing, hiring
and continuous training for qualified and technically skilled maintenance personnel. BSCTC
outsources mechanical and HVAC needs to industry professional contractors. BSCTC facilities
conducts audits annually through an outside agency and internal processes each semester.
Results have consistently demonstrated no material weaknesses.

SECTION H – PROPOSED FACILITY STUDY H.1 Explanation of Decision to Pursue New Construction/Renovation of Current
Facilities
Since the Work Ready East Kentucky is seeking WRSI funds to equip a new Advanced
Technology Center with the state-of-the-art technology, high impact equipment, curriculum and
training resources necessary to prepare the workforce need now and in the future this is not
applicable to this proposal.
H.2 Cost Per Square Foot for Renovations and New Construction of Facilities
Since the Work Ready East Kentucky is seeking WRSI funds to equip a new Advanced
Technology Center with the state-of-the-art technology, high impact equipment, curriculum and
training resources necessary to expand programs this is not applicable to this proposal.
However, the cash match funding of 4.5 million for the 15,000 square feet planned for the
planned facility translates to approximately $300 per square foot. In regards to the WRSI
funding request for equipment in the proposal if we apply this same methodology
($3,736,990/15,000 square feet) the cost of equipment per square foot would be estimated at
$249.

SECTION I – REPORTING CRITERIA I.1 REPORTING CRITERIA
Provide a description of the data that will be collected and reported semiannually for a period of
five years after the completion of the project, including the metrics that will be used to evaluate
the project, broken down for students and adults, including but not limited to:
Work Ready East Kentucky includes a comprehensive evaluation plan developed to determine
success. The performance metrics developed to evaluate this project align with the Big Sandy
Community and Technical College, 2016-2022 Strategic Plan. Specific areas to be measured
include:
Enrollment,
Completion percentage,
Continued enrollment,
Credentials and degrees granted,
Total number of juniors and seniors receiving post-secondary credit, credentials or
certifications,
Job placement,
Six-month job retention, and
Skills assessment
These evaluation metrics will be used to:
1. Determine the effectiveness of the project
2. Provide information about service delivery
3. Enable project staff to make changes that improve effectiveness
Data will be collected each semester and broken down between high school and adult students.
The fall 2018 semester will establish a benchmark for each metric and targets have been set
running through the fall 2023 semester. The College’s Office of Research Planning and Analysis
will provide the project manager semi-annual reports using official data as reported to the
Council on Post-Secondary Education, covering enrollment, completion percentage, continued
enrollment, credentials and degrees granted, and total number of juniors and seniors receiving
post-secondary credit, credentials or certifications. Success coaches and program faculty will
provide the project manager reports covering job placement, six-month job retention, and skills
assessment.
The Project Investigator, Dean of Career Education and Workforce Development, and program
faculty will meet on a semi-annual basis to review performance measures and use the
information gathered during the planning, implementation, and evaluation processes to interpret,
report findings, and recommend modifications for improving the project. This planning,
evaluation and improvement process for Work Ready East Kentucky, will provide information
that will be incorporated in each pathway/programs annual Institutional Unit Review. The
Institutional Unit Review provides a process by which instructional, administrative and
educational support units perform an annual internal review of the services they offer to students.
The review is conducted in order to ensure processes and procedures meet the needs of the target
Page | 79
audience. This process institutionalizes Work Ready Easy KY, making this project sustainable
for long-term future success.
Enrollment:
Enrollment and attendance data will be collected by BSCTC’s Admissions and Records
Department, individual program faculty, including laboratory or adjunct assistants within each
program. Monthly data will be collected and reported to the Project Investigator who will in turn
share data with the college Leadership Cabinet, which includes among others, the College
President, Dean of Academic Affairs, Dean of Career Education and Workforce Development
and the Dean of Institutional Effectiveness and Institutional Research. The Project Investigator
will collect and report data to the Kentucky Education and Workforce Development Cabinet
semiannually for the five-year length of the Project. The baseline number for enrolment will be
established in Fall of 2018 and will be thereafter used to measure growth of participation in both
secondary student and adult student participation.
Completion Percentage:
Completion rates for secondary and adult students will be tracked separately by program and by
credentials awarded. Internal goals have been established for adult students based upon past data
and the college’s strategic plan for continuous academic achievement benchmarks. Although
placement of secondary students into technical programs will be new territory for BSCTC, the
college has set internal benchmarks for secondary completion based upon several factors. The
first item which was taken into consideration was the college’s marked success in its Early
College Academy Programs. The Early College Academy Programs allow area high school
students to not only attend the college during their Junior and Senior years, but also to complete
an Associate’s Degree by the time of high school graduation. BSCTC began this initiative in
2012 with the Floyd County Early College Academy. Based upon the success of this pilot
program, new Academies were established for the Johnson County/ Paintsville High School
students and Pike County High School Students. Success rates for these cohorts are often as
high as 95% to 100% which is a much higher percentage of completion as compared to the adult
population. The high school completion benchmark was additionally based upon the anticipation
that secondary students will have the freedom to explore several technical options before making
an ultimate determination of the area desired for credentialing. Lastly the benchmark was based
upon laboratory contact hour criteria for many of the technical programs. Reporting for
program, certification completion will be collected and maintained by program faculty monthly
who will report to the Project Investigator. The Project Investigator will share data with the
College Leadership Cabinet in order to discuss achievements and areas for improvement. The
Project Investigator will report completion rates semiannually to the Kentucky Education and
Workforce Development Cabinet semiannually for the five-year length of the Project.
Continued Enrollment:
Data will be collected each semester and broken down between high school and adult students.
The fall 2018 semester will establish a benchmark for enrollment figures and targets have been
set running through the fall 2023 semester. The College’s Office of Research Planning and
Analysis will provide the project investigator semi-annual reports using official data as reported
to the Council on Post-Secondary Education, covering enrollment, completion percentage,
continued enrollment, credentials and degrees granted, and total number of juniors and seniors

receiving post-secondary credit, credentials or certifications. Internal benchmarks for continued
enrollment are based upon several factors which are exclusive to the adult and high school
populations respectively. Adult benchmarks have been established based upon historical data.
The figures for secondary enrollments are based on a combination of Pike County secondary
school commitments and estimates of program capacity along with projected hiring of faculty/
lab assistants to accommodate program expansions. Currently, BSCTC does not enroll secondary
students in its technical programs. The proposed project aspires to address this by admitting an
initial secondary population of 70 students. Growth benchmarks have been established as the
project is marketed to secondary students through school counselors and at recruitment events
sponsored by the college.
Credentials and Degrees Granted:
Program faculty will track and report program credentials obtained as well as industry-
certifications obtained for both adult and secondary students. These figures will be reported to
the Project Investigator to share with the college’s Leadership Cabinet for evaluation and
improvement suggestions. The Project Investigator will collect all data and report to Kentucky
Education and Workforce Development Cabinet semiannually for the five-year length of the
Project. Program Coordinators track specific state and national licensure credentials awarded.
This data will be reported to the Project Investigator who will in turn follow the same chain of
reporting as above. Additionally, it is anticipated that for selective admissions programs, both
adult and secondary students will complete one to two years of approved general education
prerequisites prior to program admittance. Hence, the anticipated boost to growth over years
three to four of the project.
Total Number of Juniors and Seniors Among the Secondary Partners Included in the
Project Who Will Successfully receive Postsecondary Credit, Credentials or Certifications:
The Work Ready East Kentucky Project anticipates an initial enrollment of seventy secondary
students. Throughout the five-year length of the project, BSCTC plans to attain a final, total
enrollment of 125 secondary students into the technical programs. The goal being that each
secondary student enrolled will attain one or more industry-recognized certifications. These
certifications, of themselves, will be valuable to the student in seeking employment, should the
student elect to stop-out following high school. Additionally, these certifications will be
stackable and portable, allowing the students to apply them toward a degree-bearing program,
should they choose to continue on to postsecondary education in the field of the certification.
The array of choices which will be available to secondary students is listed in section E of this
proposal. Program faculty will track and report program credentials obtained as well as industry-
certifications obtained for both adult and secondary students. These figures will be reported to
the Project Investigator to share with the college’s Leadership Cabinet for evaluation and
improvement suggestions. The Project Investigator will collect all data and report to the
Kentucky Education and Workforce Development Cabinet semiannually for the five-year length
of the Project. Program Coordinators track specific state and national licensure credentials
awarded. This data will be reported to the Project Investigator who will in turn follow the same
chain of reporting as above.

Job Placement/ Job Retention at Six Months:
BSCTC tracks employment data of graduates. The Technical Education Data System (TEDS)
process is a well-established tool which has traditionally provided data for the college to track
employment trends. This data is supplied through self-reporting follow-up surveys sent to all
students. Follow-up surveys are sent to employers, based upon those identified in student
responses. This data will be provided to the Dean of Career Education and Workforce
Development and will be reported semiannually to the Kentucky Education and Workforce
Development Cabinet semiannually for the five-year length of the Project.
Skills Assessment Scores:
Program faculty assess skills within programs. In all technical areas, students must demonstrate
proficiency in skills in order to persist and complete. Achievement goals/rates are defined in a
program’s handbook, or within course syllabi. Additionally, state and national certifications or
licensures are tracked by program coordinators. These figures are collected by the Department
of Institutional Effectiveness/ Institutional Review. These analytics will be provided to the Work
Ready East Kentucky Project Director and will be reported semiannually to the Kentucky
Education and Workforce Development Cabinet semiannually for the five-year length of the
Project.
