as the top supplier to leading aerospace and defense companies, and plays a vital role in the advancement of new technologies as evidenced by its engagement with a number of Manufacturing Innovation Institutes supported by the Department of Defense (DoD), such as Lightweight Innovations for Tomorrow (LIFT), America Makes, NextFlex, and the Advanced Robotics for Manufacturing (ARM) Institute The proposed Ohio Manufacturing Talent Expansion for the Defense Industrial Supply Chain project focuses on meeting the immediate need for production and technician workers in Ohio manufacturing companies serving the defense industry while concurrently building capacity within both industry and higher education to prepare incumbent and future workers with the advanced skills needed in an increasingly high-tech environment With a specific focus on shop-floor capabilities, this project directly advances the goal of the DoD to better position the current and next-generation manufacturing workforce The collaborative effort aligns with the DoD’s National Defense Strategy to enhance the civilian workforce and devise new public-private partnerships to work with small companies, start-ups, and universities Manufacturing is the leading private sector employer in Ohio and the state is expected to see continued sector growth over the next ten years The challenge to ensure that there are enough qualified technicians to fill these increasingly high-tech manufacturing occupations is driven by the concurrent impact of an aging workforce and the rapid pace of new technology adoption within the fourth industrial revolution (Industry 4.0) Future growth may be constrained by the significant disparity between the number of available manufacturing jobs and the number of qualified applicants to fill those jobs (OMA, 2019) Ohio is uniquely positioned to serve as a leader in solving this acute workforce challenge, through a public-private collaboration called the Ohio Manufacturing Workforce Partnership (OMWP), led by the Ohio Manufacturers’ Association (OMA), in partnership with a consortium of higher education institutions called Ohio TechNet (OTN), and other state and industry leaders OMA has spearheaded a movement among Ohio manufacturers, informed by a statewide workforce roadmap, to implement industry-led sector partnerships, facilitating collaboration among education, economic development, workforce development, and industry leaders to address workforce gaps in regional labor markets Colleges throughout Ohio will partner with these industry partners to enhance curricula with defense contractors such as Lockheed Martin, GE Aviation, Arconic, Siemens, LC Technologies, Southwire and others; and research and development organizations such as Wright Patterson Airforce Base, NASA Glenn, Battelle Memorial Institute, and the Ohio Manufacturing Institute at The Ohio State University OMA will assist with statewide dissemination strategies, scaling and sustainability NextFlex, the Flexible Hybrid Electronic Innovation Institute, serves as a strategic partner Driven by engagement with an anticipated 200+ industry partners, OMWP has established ambitious, yet attainable goals for this project Partners are set to train 1,125 adult workers over three years, with an additional 4,080 high-school students engaged in advanced manufacturing career awareness through participation in FlexFactor, a collaborative technology and entrepreneurship program for youth developed by NextFlex This work will bolster statewide capacity to recruit and educate skilled technicians throughout the advanced manufacturing sector to maintain the superiority of the United States Department of Defense Proposed Education/Training Program Six Ohio TechNet (OTN) partners

the program through the statewide infrastructure The Initiatives or Activities to Attract Superior Participants This proposal integrates initiatives for veterans, women, minorities and other priority or underrepresented audiences, both adults and youth, including: Table 6: Strategies to Increase Access for Under-represented Populations Population Initiatives and Strategies Engagement of veterans through connections with VA hospitals, veterans’ programs, and veterans’ scholarship programs Military Transfer Assurance Guides (MTAGs) provide a statewide guarantee that certain types of military training, experience, and/or coursework align to existing college and university courses and will be awarded appropriate credit Veterans/ National Association of Manufacturers will provide technical assistance drawing Military on their Heroes MAKE America program with special focus on service members Population exiting the service from Wright-Patterson Air Force Base (Dayton, OH) Each Leader College has a variety of recognized high-quality programs designed to be military friendly and offer specific services for veterans Sinclair, for example, is located within 20 miles of Wright-Patterson Air Force Base and serves an estimated 3,500 veterans and active service members annually Women’s outreach initiatives including engagement with a national impact community hosted by SkillsCommons.org called WISE Pathways, and a statelevel women’s outreach initiative to be embarked on in concert with the OMWP, leveraging MakingOhio.com Women Leader Colleges target women through marketing and recruitment materials that highlights the work of female staff members and events focused on attracting women to STEM field, hosting Women in STEM Institutes, and partnering with regional organizations focused on the promotion of women Leader College initiatives to reach underrepresented audiences including students of color by expanding partnerships with pre-apprenticeship and dual Underenrollment programs in racially diverse school districts represented LCCC and other partners are working with high schools leveraging ODE’s preminority and apprenticeship and dual enrollment career-technical programs in predominantly economically disadvantaged minority-attended school districts Leader Colleges’ specific programming includes: AAMI – African American Male Initiative, Focus on African American Men in Education (FAME) Youth Engagement & Reaching New Talent: The statewide Guided Pathways effort will leverage an innovative talent engagement model called FlexFactor, which will also support goals to reach underrepresented audiences FlexFactor was created by NextFlex, a DoD-funded Manufacturing Institute, as a program to engage next generation talent into advanced manufacturing technician and STEM pathways The program model is based on three pillars: Exposure to cutting-edge technologies, Principles of entrepreneurship, and Direct engagement with the education and career pathways leading to advanced manufacturing The FlexFactor program is integrated into existing high school courses and lesson plans Typically, the curriculum is integrated into nonelective, general education courses, so students not have the opportunity for self-selection or sorting that may result in under-representation of certain groups FlexFactor has achieved significant milestones in Silicon Valley, as well as at its first Ohio replication site through Lorain County Community College, where it has proven its ability to rapidly scale and reach new 10 audiences The current FlexFactor student population is over 60 percent minority and 50 percent young women Unique Merits of the Proposed Project and the Rationale for Selection A Innovation and Projected Effectiveness of the Proposed Project Due to the systematic way in which leaders from the private and public sectors have established a collaborative infrastructure to drive transformative change, Ohio is uniquely positioned to serve as a leader in solving the acute workforce challenges facing manufacturing The proposed set of work under this initiative will offer a powerful complement to other investments being made in Ohio to support this goal Most recently, OMA and OTN, through the Ohio Manufacturing Workforce Partnership, won an investment from the US Department of Labor to support expansion of apprenticeship A significant portion of the announced $12 million investment over the next four years will be focused on building the infrastructure for industry to lead through regional industry-led sector partnerships As industry better organizes its ability to prioritize needed workforce innovation, a DoD MEEP investment will provide concurrent vital capacity that will accelerate higher education’s agile response Our collective goal is to demonstrate effective and replicable state level strategies for meeting the talent and skill needs of the nation’s defense manufacturing industry Deep partnerships with industry inform specific tactics for engaging new talent as well as accelerating education and training of adults, either as new entrants to the advanced manufacturing workforce or in support of new technology adoption In addition to the impact at the six leader colleges, resources are budgeted to support educational innovation across the state, such as faculty certification to teach to industry-recognized credentials, or other professional development aligned to industry priorities as it relates to Ohio’s defense supply chain Many strategies will also be nationally replicable B Significance of the Impacts on Participants, Target Industries or Communities The requested investment will result in outcomes that directly align to DoD priorities The following impacts are projected across the six ecosystems throughout the state: Table Program Impacts on Industry • Increased engagement of defense industry employers (existing and new) Short • Innovations in curriculum development and delivery Term • Alignment to industry recognized credentials (Year 1) • Expansion of earn and learn / apprenticeship opportunities • FlexFactor adoption- unified talent engagement aligned to defense industry • Increased and accelerated enrollment and completion of postsecondary Middle manufacturing programs, certifications, and degree completions Term • Increased earn and learn opportunities with defense partners (Year 2) • Documentation of innovations in delivery, such as competency-based, microcredentialing, and industry-education partnerships • System-wide strategies emerge for dissemination Long Term • Continuation of nationally relevant, transferable, and stackable curriculum (Year • Project outcome goals achieved: 1125 individuals engaged/trained with skills and postthat meet needs of Ohio defense industry; 4080+ students participate in grant) FlexFactor; 200+ defense industry partners engaged 11 Sustainability -Detailed Business Strategy Many of the project activities - recruitment, curriculum development, partnership building - were designed with sustainability in mind so that efforts extend beyond the project period Formative evaluation activities will track progress and inform continuing improvements Strategies that result in a sufficient return on investment (demonstrated impact on improving student completion/ meeting industry needs) will be sustained The proposed project leverages significant previous investments from the Department of Labor ($15M from 2014-2018 for OTN) and the National Science Foundation, as well as both previous and new investments from a number of the Manufacturing USA institutes, including LIFT, NextFlex, and ARM Ohio TechNet has already demonstrated successful sustainability strategies, not only continuing past its original grant but expanding educational partners from 11 to 28 This has been possible due to the strength of the public-private partnership reflected in OTN’s close collaboration with the Ohio Manufacturers’ Association The expertise and capacity of the many partners leveraged by this project lend significant support to the sustainability and scalability of strategies that demonstrate impact Of particular importance is the voice that OMA gives to manufacturers to impact state policy as it relates to manufacturing workforce, and to offer input on a national scale through its leadership within national organizations Other assets leveraged include: Ohio TechNet project management and communication infrastructure, which partners with OMA network of regional sector partnerships to disseminate models and lessons for replication and technical assistance Realism and Reasonableness in the Proposed Budget Through a consortium approach we have reduced replication costs and created efficiencies Each partnering college will receive funds for their institutional innovations, informed directly by industry, and statewide dissemination resources are budgeted to offer impact, such as faculty certification to teach specific skills/technology, beyond the six leader colleges Significant efficiencies are gained at Lorain CCC for the launch and management of the project, leveraging the existing infrastructure and expertise of the Ohio TechNet management team A subaward to NextFlex Learning Programs, an off-shoot of NextFlex, will support one-time licensing fees related to adoption of the FlexFactor program across all partnering schools A single license costs $125,000 Some colleges will match the DoD investment with local resources; others are requesting the full amount This will allow for significant efficiencies in program roll-out, for example, allowing for coordination of train-the-trainer sessions and building a learning community among project managers Statewide partners will also be able to coordinate on data collection and program sustainability strategies, working with our local and state industry and educational partners Project budget, sub-awards, and budget justifications are all included with the application 12 Management Approach Lorain County Community College is the lead
