Executive Summary

Edison Community College is located in an area of Ohio where up to 47 percent (Shelby County) of the employment is directly related to advanced manufacturing and in order to support current advanced manufacturing processes skill upgrades are needed for much of the workforce. (Miami and Darke Counties experience slightly lower percentages) The Edison Business and Industry Center (B & I) and the Edison engineering degree programs provide training opportunities for both the incumbent and emerging workforce. This proposal is for the purchase of capital equipment for the Edison Advanced Manufacturing Lab. Equipment purchases are difficult to include in a typical academic year budget, yet would enhance workforce development at the college, with both our partner schools and our local companies.

Edison Community College and its industry partners worked closely to develop the SkillsTrac program for advanced manufacturing skills in 2008. This extensive program pioneered “blended” learning in manufacturing skill training and has evolved into the flexible and highly customizable Tech Online program preferred by our local industry today. At the heart of blended learning for advanced manufacturing skills is the hands-on lab that allows students to demonstrate their newly acquired skill set. The equipment purchases in this request will enhance Edison’s ability to supply today’s employees with advanced manufacturing skills through these programs as well as our academic programs such as Advanced Manufacturing Systems and Automation and Robotics Associate Degree.

The Honda Engine Plant in Anna, OH, is expanding their facility and their workforce. They need skilled equipment service technicians and have developed two training programs to prepare these workers: Technical Fundamentals Program (TFP) and Technical Development Program (TDP). Both of these programs incorporate blended learning. When the Honda training facility in Marysville realized they did not have the capacity to deliver the labs needed for the TFP, they came to the Edison B & I Center for help. Since August of 2013, Honda has sent five associates to our advanced manufacturing lab for five hours per day for their labs. Most of these associates are new hires but some are being given the opportunity to advance by completing the TFP. Aside from a few smaller items, the Edison advanced manufacturing lab has the necessary equipment to deliver the TFP labs; however, as we look to the near future, the equipment needed for the Technical Development Program (TDP) is just not there. The equipment in this proposal would directly support the Honda TDP as well as enhance the skill set of the degree program students.

The Honda Engine plant eagerly hires our engineering students as interns then hires them as graduates. Because Edison uses one advanced manufacturing lab for both B & I and the degree programs, this equipment would be used not only for Honda and our degree students, but also for additional B & I clients who need similar skills for their workforce. Tech Online has served many local companies including Midmark, Emerson, Hartzell, Norcold, Hobart Brothers, ConAgra Foods, Faurecia, P & R Specialty, Rittal Corporation, Crown Equipment, Setex-West, Evenflo, Advanced Composites, and Dannon. This equipment will expand the ability of Edison to satisfy our local advanced manufacturing training needs.

Lastly, Edison has a history of working closely with the Upper Valley Career Center (located next door) with career pathways for both high school graduates and adult division completers. Over the years we have partnered with UVCC through Tech Prep, CTAGs, and articulation pathways. This equipment will allow those students opportunities to expand their skill set for the workplace. For those students and incumbent workers aspiring toward a B.S. in Engineering Technologies, we have a 2 + 2 agreement with Miami University.


Project Narrative:

The following information supports the required criteria for submission of this Request for Proposal. It is outlined in the order presented in the RFP document provided by the University System of Ohio Board of Regents.

In addition, Edison is prepared to fulfill all the reporting requirements of the grant. In 2007, Edison was awarded a Department of Labor Job Skills Training Grant that required extensive reporting. We were able to collect and comply with all of the requirements for data from the number of workers trained and certificates earned, to demographic information to leveraged funds. Once we know the data required by the grant, we will institute processes that will gather the data via use our institutional enterprise resource planning (ERP) SYSTEM.

1. Significance to Regional Economy:

b Equipment Program:

The equipment purchases proposed in this application will support both workforce training to incumbent workers in advanced manufacturing as well as engineering degree program students. The Business and Industry Center at Edison supports the manufacturing companies in our area with training for incumbent workers. The innovative Tech Online training product line was introduced in 2009 and has grown in popularity with companies every year. Tech Online blends online learning with hands-on validation labs where company associates demonstrate their knowledge with advanced manufacturing equipment. Well over 1600 hours of online learning and over 1000 hours of labs have been delivered with an average knowledge improvement (pre-test vs. post-test) greater than 21%. Companies served include Midmark, Emerson, Hartzell, Norcold, Hobart Brothers, ConAgra Foods, Faurecia, P & R Specialty, Rittal Corporation, Crown Equipment, Setex-West, Evenflo, and Dannon.

In 2013 Edison’s Business and Industry Center partnered with Honda of America to deliver training labs for newly hired and existing employees at the expanding Honda Engine Plant in Anna, OH. The Honda associates (40+ hired less than 6 months ago with more expected) must complete the TFP (Technical Fundamentals Program 150+ hours of training) and the TDP (Technical Development Program 650+ hours) in order to be in the Equipment Maintenance group. The Edison advanced manufacturing lab equipment used by both credit classes and Business and Industry training has been generally sufficient to support the Honda TFP program. However, the equipment purchased by this grant will improve the capacity of our engineering programs and allow the Honda associates to move into the TDP at Edison’s Piqua campus.

2. Industry Demand: a/b

Data supports the increasing demand for a skilled workforce in our area. Ohio Employment Projections from the Jobs Ohio website show the IT industry cluster is expected to provide 3,689 average annual job opportunities and that the advanced manufacturing industry cluster is expected to provide 2,541 average annual job opportunities. According to a study done by the Department of Jobs and Family Services in April 2013, manufacturing accounted for the largest share of all private wages paid in Ohio in 2011. Also included in that report, manufacturing has a high percentage of workers over age 55, showing the need for new hires in the near future.

In our Jobs Ohio region (Dayton Region, West Ohio), some of the growth in jobs through 2020 include:

• 5% increase in mechanical engineers • 7.2 % increase in industrial engineers • 9% increase in numerical tool and process control programmers • 17.9% increase in industrial machinery mechanics • 18.7% increase in CNC operators


Jobs Ohio lists both Shelby and Darke counties as targeted employment areas. Jobs Ohio lists Shelby County as a priority investment area for 2013 (with a labor surplus). Employment in Ohio in the computer systems design and related services group is predicted to rise 38.9 % by 2018 according to the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services’ Labor Market Information division.

Edison’s service district produces nearly 25,000 jobs in advanced manufacturing, ranking in the top ten in the State of Ohio. With only 200,000 residents in the three-county region, we have an extremely high concentration of advanced manufacturing industries. In Shelby County 47 percent of all jobs are related to advanced manufacturing; Miami and Darke Counties experience slightly lower but similar ratios. Two major employers in our service district; Honda of America (13,000 employees) and Emerson Climate Technologies (3,000 employees) have already approached College leadership informing us that their current need is so great that if we double our Engineering and Information Technology programs, they could hire all our graduates. This does not account for technology advances and future growth.

Building a stronger training program will serve to develop a larger potential pool of candidates for those jobs.

In order to strengthen our ability to respond to new or increased workforce development opportunities in the state, we must provide a quality educational experience with state of the art facilities, laboratory environments and equipment. Our employers tell us continuously that they need students with applied degrees where students have spent their college experiences in labs applying their knowledge. By preparing our students with applied degrees, they are well prepared to enter the workforce as interns; many are hired as entry level IT/engineering employees.

We have the support of some of the biggest organizations in our three-county area: they hire our students to work as interns; they host our health science students for their clinical experience; their employees serve as Advisory Committee members for our programs. In addition, our B&I Center has designed customized training for the following: Darke County: Shelby County: Miami County: Midmark Emerson Climate Technologies UTC Aerospace Greenville Technologies (GTI) Freshway Foods Hartzell Wayne Hospital Honda Hobart Whirlpool NKParts French Oil

Plastipak Upper Valley Medical- Wilson Memorial Hospital Center (UVMC)

A 2010 Georgetown University study forecasted that 63 percent of all jobs will require at least some postsecondary education by the year 2018. The study further states, postsecondary education and training determine access to the middle class, but what matters most is the occupation for which you prepare. According to the report, 27 percent of people with certificates and 31 percent of people with associate degrees earn more than the average person with a bachelor of arts. The three-county region that Edison serves produces in excess of 26,300 advanced manufacturing jobs, nearly equal to advanced manufacturing jobs in Montgomery County. Starting wages at our major employers, Honda of America and Emerson Climate Technologies range from $40,000 - $70,000 annually.

In the State of Ohio only about 33 percent of adults (25 or older) have obtained a postsecondary credential. The three-county region of Miami, Darke, and Shelby lags even further behind with approximately 25 percent of adults who have obtained a postsecondary credential. Business and Industry leaders echo this data; we hear constantly that industry cannot find adequate numbers of “skilled” workers to fill current openings, much less future growth and technology advances.


Edison has recently entered a contract with Honda of America to provide the 150- hour Technical Fundamentals Program (TFP) in our training labs to over 100 of their associates. Those same associates will be asked to complete the additional 650- hour Technical Development Program (TDP) training over a four year period. We are working with Honda now to determine how that training can result in an associate’s degree. 2. Industry Demand c / d

All of the equipment purchased under this grant will be housed in the Edison Community College advanced manufacturing lab at our Piqua Campus. This allows both our credit students and the Business & Industry clients to use the equipment and instructors experienced in advanced manufacturing skills. This close integration of our B & I training and our engineering degree programs make our engineering graduates highly marketable to the area manufacturing firms.

The proposed Parker hydraulic trainer and the three pneumatics trainers will allow Edison to offer advanced training in hydraulics and pneumatics for the Honda TDP training as well as other local employers. It will also increase the depth of our existing hydraulics and pneumatics credit courses.

The electrical troubleshooting and the motor controls trainers will enhance our existing industrial controls courses and will provide training in relay logic and motor controls for Honda and other B & I clients.

Advanced Manufacturers in our area use robots for precision and speed. Edison is frequently asked to provide training for incumbent workers in servo systems and robotics. Of course, our engineering graduates benefit from having hands-on skills in this area. The following equipment will support company training (Honda TDP plus others) and our credit programs.

Fanuc Robot with vision system & dual safety control and Motoman robot

Two servo trainers; one Yaskawa and one Mitsubishi

Two variable frequency drive trainers; one Yaskawa and one Mitsubishi

Programmable logic controllers (PLC) training is a major training need for advanced manufacturing companies. Edison already offers our engineering students two courses in PLCs and the following equipment would allow our students to gain experience on the PLCs and accessories that are used at Honda and other automakers and their suppliers in our area.

PLC trainer

Pro-face and GOT Human-Machine Interface (HMI) trainers

Mitsubishi training station; and a Mitsubishi safety PLC trainer.

Over three years ago, the Edison B & I Center developed a Tech Online CNC training program in conjunction with Midmark because the demand for CNC machinists was so great that the company needed a program to develop associates from within to fill these positions. (See attached Letter of support from Midmark) The program was highly successful for Midmark and Edison has worked with additional employers for CNC training. The CNC horizontal and turning machines in this proposal will support both Edison credit engineering classes and B & I training so that our area of Ohio will be able to meet the projected 17% increase in CNC machinists from 2013 to 2022.

3. Leveraged Resources a. Leveraged dollars

Honda’s current partnership with Edison B & I for the TFP training involves one scheduling associate, two Honda training professionals (project oversight and development) and 4 associates in the lab for training each week. The salary commitment for these employees while they have been involved in this project (approx. 20 weeks) is already in excess of $37,000 in leveraged salaries. The equipment purchased with


this grant will allow the partnership to add the TDP training. Over the grant period, Honda will pay associates in excess of $112,000 in salaries just for the hours in the TDP labs. In addition, Honda expects each associate to take 4 years to complete the entire TDP program so their commitment extends well beyond the grant period. Honda has also shown their commitment to training our local workforce by supporting our internship program over the next two years by commiting to supprting up to five (5) co-op students which equals an approximate commitement of up to $50,000.00.

Additionally, when companies enroll their employees in Tech Online training, the time spent in the hands-on lab training with the equipment are paid work hours for the trainee. Thus any additional company employees who use this equipment during the grant period will be additional leverage.

Edison Community College financially supports the SBDC with $22,000 each year plus in-kind support. The Small Business Development Center is the only SBDC in the three county service area- of Miami, Darke and Shelby Counties.

3. b. Private Business Contribution

In support of the TFP project currently underway, Honda has already provided equipment and training materials which they value at $30,000. Honda expects to continue this commitment throughout the TDP program but the value of what will be needed for the TDP has yet to be determined.

4. Sustainability of the Investment

Edison Business and Industry Center and the engineering faculty have a 15+ year history of equipment sharing in the advanced manufacturing lab. They also share the expense to maintain or upgrade software for use by both programs. However, due to the cost of each machine, purchases are rare. This grant would allow Edison to invest in additional capital equipment that would be maintained by both departments. The funds to maintain and upgrade the equipment would come from B & I revenue, and credit class lab fees. Assuming 48 weeks of Honda TFP/TDP training per year, an additional 20 Tech Online students per year, plus additional student lab fees in five pertinent engineering and electrical/robotics sections, there will be additional funding available each year to maintain this equipment. The Honda training is expected to continue for over 4 years.

5. Emerging Industries

This grant would expand and support Edison’s ability to train workers for the emerging advanced manufacturing industry. The companies in our area rely extensively on CNC machining, robotics and other precision manufacturing techniques and they look to us to re-train existing workers as well as the emerging workforce for these jobs. Whether a local company is making automotive parts, processing food, or making industrial equipment, we provide the skilled workforce to assist them.

6. New Company Formation and Job Placement

Edison Community College made the commitment to assist local entrepreneurs by establishing a Small Business Development Center (SBDC) in 2007. The center has a full-time Director and half-time secretary and the center is available for clients 12 months a year. The college financially supports the center with $22,000 each year plus in-kind support. Among the many individuals who seek advice and assistance from the SBDC, located within the Business and Industry Center, are CNC shop owners at various stages of their entrepreneurial careers. One thing they all have in common is the need for trained, skilled machine operators, so they can spend more time on activities that advance their companies. Instead of spending time in their shop, they should be pursuing the administrative tasks of growing a business; i.e., dedicate their time to sales, opportunity research, and “managing” their business. All would benefit from having a training resource available to them where they could find a pool of qualified candidates from which to hire; the machinery and training opportunity provided by the requested grant would fill this void.


7. Institutional Collaboration

Edison Community College has collaborated with local high school and Ohio Technical Centers for 40 years. The Upper Valley Career Center campus is located next door to the college and we work closely with the Adult Division. When their building renovation left the adult division without an advanced manufacturing lab for the summer, Edison hosted the students and instructors in our lab until their space was ready. The Edison B & I Center and the Upper Valley Adult Division jointly employed a sales person in FY 2013, and the engineering faculty from both organizations work together on Tech Prep career pathways, articulation agreements, and CTAGS.

The additional equipment provided by this grant will enhance the career pathway of the Upper Valley Career Center and Adult Division students to offer them advanced skill training to take to the job market.
