I. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
A regional partnership led by Employment Services of Weld County was developed to address an area of
the energy worker shortage demonstrated through the WIRED and Metro Denver Workforce Board gaps
analysis, energy industry panels and local/regional labor market analysis. This proposal responds to
issues that affect an individual's ability to be employable at the entry level in areas of the various energy
industries and/or move up the career ladder. An innovative job training program, Multi Industry Systems
Technician Academy (MIST) was designed to remediate and develop skills in potential workers and
incumbent worker skill development in educational packages which are focused, short term, flexible and
employer driven through validated competencies. In addition, an intensive preparation academy will
address remedial needs to enter Aims Community College; pass pre-employment used by Excel Energy;
and develop employer identified soft skills like critical thinking, team work, etc.
A. Lead Organization and Partners
Employment Services of Weld County will be the lead agent. Partners include: Boulder, Adams and
Larimer County Workforce Centers; The Workforce Board of Metro Denver will assist in coordinating.
Aims Community College; School Districts 6 and RE-8 :Brighton United Power, Excel Energy, and
Energy Logic, are just a few of the employers who have indicated then need for this training.
Industry Needs
In May of 2007, the Metro Denver WIRED Initiative Workforce study was released. Per the study, the
industry is in need of employees with quality fundamental skills in the areas of math, science, business
and technology. The most in-demand energy occupations fall into three major categories with technical
workers (technicians and maintenance) being one. The Metro Board of Denver convened an Energy
Industry Panel with Excel Energy, Suncor USA, Shell Exploration and Production and Coors Brewing
Company. The consistent message was of the energy industry's workforce need to have ready access to
competent entry level energy workers and to provide skill upgrade opportunities for incumbent workers.
Remedial/developmental education was necessary and Excel Energy stated applicants need to be capable
2
of passing the Edison Electric Institute's pre-employment test. Research was conducted, surveying over
80 employers to validate the training being designed for this project. The curriculum was based on
Coor's Craft Technical Competencies,process management curriculum design and others as noted in the
attachment.
Innovation
The development of the MIST Academy is innovative because it provides a new type of job training
program to address industry need at various levels. It is employer validated, flexible in delivery, academic
credit bearing, PELL Grant eligible with short term elements that are open entry-open exit and not
dependent upon future external funding. The initial targeted population will be out-of-school, at risk
youth, unemployed and underemployed, primarily disadvantaged individuals and incumbent workers.
The School Districts will target in-school youth who can gain college credit prior to graduations.. The
preparation process is designed to be replicable and sustainable. (See Section II)
B. Key Outcomes
Our major outcomes are as follows: 1. Prepare 120 individuals for entry to mid level employment in the
energy industry with a 90% completion rate and employment rate..
2.. Provide an innovative, effective, fully evaluated process which will be easily replicable and
sustainable. 3. Facilitate a plan to promote energy industry careers.
C. Sustainability
This grant will demonstrate the need for a preparatory academy to assist the emerging or incumbent
workforce gain remedial as well as professional soft skills to enter the energy workforce or continue in the
career ladders through additional education. The preparatory level of MIST may be funded through
employer contributions and/or workforce preparation program dollars in the future. The certificate
elements of the MIST Academy will be integrated in the community college system and will be funded
through tuition.
3
II. Conceptional Framwork
A. The targeted industry under this proposal is energy. The MIST Academy benefit will be in
addressing the need through job training and opportunities for incumbent worker training as well
as creating a career pathway for energy and related industries. With this effort current needs will
be addressed as well as the need for workers due to the increasing number of retirements.
B. The main issue to be addressed through this proposal is a response to energy industry employers'
need for individuals prepared to enter energy industry employment and provide incumbent worker
skill upgrades. The response proposed is the implementation a program, the Multi Industry
Systems Technician Academy which is designed to accomplish job training for energy and related
industries as cited in the Metro Board's "Key Points from the WIRED Initiative Workforce
Study". The industry is in need of employment with quality fundamental skills in the areas of
math, science, business and technology. Also noted in the study is the most in-demand energy
occupations fall into three major categories with technical working (technicians and maintenance)
being one. Industry Panel expert consistent message was the need to have ready access to
competent entry level energy works and to provide skills up grade opportunities for incumbent
workers. Remedial/development education was necessary and Excel Energy stated applicants
need to be capable of passing the Edison Electric Institute's pre-employment. The intent is to
initially target 105 individuals who are disadvantaged (out-of-school and at risk youth, dropouts,
the unemployed and the underemployed) as well as 15 high school youth, through a dual credit
option to initiate a pipeline for the industry. Any individual is eligible to apply for the program
since it is offered through Aims Community College. It is significant to note that many of the
targeted populations do not have the background to successfully enter a community college
program, which is another issue addressed in this proposal. Responding to the issue of
remediation is one purpose of the preparatory phase of the MIST Academy.
4
The gaps analysis, employer panel, and studies have all indicated the need to provide a skilled
work workforce at various levels. Time in preparation of workers has also been clearly articulated
as a criticism. Lengthy educational programs do not help with immediate need for workers and
yet few individuals are prepared to even interview for a position. Based on this information
common entry level competency areas identified in current successful curricula and as identified
in various studies and from employer input in meetings and forums (See"Proposal Development
Resources") and asked regional employers to validate and/or modify y those competency areas to
form the foundation of the three phased MIST Academy.
Research was conducted to align employer needs with the training programs available in the
region. The Proposal Development Resources Attachment demonstrates the extensive of this
review. Based on the information a three-phased preparatory and college credit program was
designed. In October 07, a survey was sent to 80 energy related industry to validate the structure
of the program and respond if the areas were critical or important and the level at which the
employee should have the skill/knowledge. The MIST Academy developed in response to the
research are: MIST Preparatory Program; MIST Certificate I and; MIST Certificate II.
Preparatory Program: An open entry/open exit approximately eight week preparation with skills
necessary to attend Aims Community College with testing and remediation to pass the Accuplacer
at the level to enter the academic program. It will also provide skill development in the areas of
personal responsibility, team process, critical thinking/problem solving and preparation to pass the
appropriate Edison test. Finally it will provide OSHA Basic Certification, necessary math skills,
industry experiences and interviewing/resume skills.
MIST Certificate I and MIST Certificate II: These levels will provide skills_necessary in technical
industries that have been identified by employers, e.g. technical writing and math, print reading,
AC/DC fundamentals, hand and power tools, etc.

F. Partnership, support and commitment
Letter of partnership and commitment are located in Attachment IV. In summary:
The regional county Workforce Centers have made a clear commitment to support the program
through identifying participants for the program and carrying out preliminary assessment
activities, cover 50% of the tuition and provided leverage resources with case management and
other related activities.
The Workforce Board of Metro Denver is committed to assisting in the coordination of the
region and employers.
Aims Community College is committed to developing and providing the job training program
for academic credit and assisting students in obtaining financial aid as necessary.
9
The school districts are committed to utilizing their resources (e.g. STEM and Career and
Technical Education program expertise) to assist in program recruitment and promotion (e.g.
District RE-8 has purchased credits from Aims Community College for use by their students to
pursue Career and Technical Education programs) and providing preparatory instruction.
Employers will be engaged as identified previously. As mentioned, this is in response to
employer identified needs mentioned earlier in the proposal. Employers will participate in
areas of internships, serve as mentors to teacher or students, participate on the program
advisory board, provide site visit opportunities for students or teachers, provide entry level
positions, assist in the preparation of educational materials for career awareness of
opportunities in the energy industry sector.
III. Guiding Principles.
Innovation-- The project is innovative because creates a new type of cooperative job training program to
address industry job training needs and incumbent worker training upgrades; a program that is employer
validated, flexible in delivery academic credit bearing, PELL Grant eligible with short term elements that
are open entry/open exit. These types of programs are usually offered through continuing education
departments and are fully grant dependent. This program will be grant initiated but self sustaining after
that period. The targeted participants in this program will initially and primarily represent disadvantaged
populations.
Regional in scope-The project will include participants from Boulder, Larimer, Adams and Weld
Counties as referred by grant partners in the Workforce Centers as well as school districts, Aims
Community College and employers in the Metro Denver region.
Transformational- We believe this project is transformational because it cooperatively addresses job
training needs in an efficient and fiscally sustainable way rather than creating a grant dependent program.
We also believe it is transformational because of the job training program design. An individual may be
theoretically employable at the completion of any of the three levels, after two levels or on the completion
10
of all three levels and a graduate may be able to articulate to one the existing A.A.S. degree programs.
The program is also appropriate for incumbent workers who wish to enhance skill levels. The
competency areas in each of these levels will be employer validated. The preparation, itself, is
transformational in that there is a change in the external from of usual preparation vs. flexible delivery
and entry/exit .
Replicable-We believe the best ways to make a project replicable is to: 1) Make it highly relevant to an
existing need; 2) Make it relatively simple in design; 3) Make it non-grant dependent but eligible for
various other funding sources; and to 4) Tie it in to an existing, successfully established system, i.e. an
approved community college program. The MIST Academy meets those criteria.
Industry driven- This project has been/will be industry driven through inception(articulated industry
need), design (fast, flexible with industry participation) and evaluation(Task Force developed and
accomplished).
IV. Lead Organization
