Abstract | Under the leadership of Governor Ivey, the residents of Alabama are getting the post-secondary education needed for in-demand careers. The Alabama Community College System is tasked with promoting WIOA Title II adult education programs, postsecondary career and technical education programs, and the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) Title I adult programs. Calhoun Community College Adult Education is part of this progressive movement to raise the employability of the residents of Huntsville, Alabama, and surrounding communities. The unemployment rate in Alabama is 3.7% compared to the national average of 3.6%, so why the giant push for career readiness? The current U.S. labor pool in manufacturing reduces by 10,000 retirements each day, resulting in 6,000,000 openings every month (Sumrak, 2018) and in Alabama, there are over 50,000 employees over 55 years of age in the manufacturing industry. For Alabama to attract and retain a major manufacturing presence, our industries need trained applicants with leadership potential. This is where the necessary assimilation of leadership characteristics blended with basic technology training becomes a priority in adult education. (As Provided). |
