Abstract:

These PowerPoints are from the 2018 Research and Evaluation Conference on Self-Sufficiency (RECS). This panel highlighted findings from the U.S. Department of Labor's Trade Adjustment Assistance Community College and Career Training (TAACCCT) grants. Presenters shared implementation and outcome findings from Los Angeles Valley College’s delivery of the Biotech Bridge Academy and described three colleges’ efforts to develop competency-based programs in information technology. Janet Javar (U.S. Department of Labor) moderated this session, and Robin Fernkas (U.S. Department of Labor) served as a discussant. Various methodologies were used across the presentations.
