RESEARCH, PUBLIC SERVICE AND CAPITAL PROJECTS U.S. Department of Labor Community Based Job Skills Training Grant

In November 2005, the U.S. Department of Labor awarded PCCC a

three-year $1.6 million Community Based Job Skills Training grant to

implement its project entitled Skills that Work: Enhanced Preparation for

Health Care Workers. In partnership with four local hospitals, PCCC’s

project is expanding the college’s capacity to train highly qualified

registered nurses and patient care associates. Specifically, the project will

double the number of nurses (from 80 to 160) enrolled in the College’s

ADN/RN program; will better prepare nurse graduates to work in specialty

units within four local hospitals by establishing a nursing fellowship

program; and will train 200 patient care associates (PCAs) by creating a

PCA certificate program. The College’s partners include Barnert Hospital,

St. Joseph’s Hospital and Medical Center, St. Mary’s Hospital, and Passaic

Beth Israel Medical Center.

U.S. Department of Education, Student Support Services (SSS)

In September 2005, PCCC established a federally funded Student Support

Services (SSS) program on its main campus in Paterson, serving 160 low-

income, academically disadvantaged students. The purpose of the SSS

program is to provide disadvantaged students with the support they need

to continue their education, to graduate from the community college,

and to transfer to the four-year university. SSS students are benefiting from

personal and career counseling, academic support services (e.g., tutorial

support), and cultural activities. PCCC’s SSS program is targeting at-risk

adult students who face numerous barriers to academic success.

PCCC - AIP 2005-06 24

Facilities

During the past year, the College has also updated it facilities to

reflect increased demand for space precipitated by enrollment growth.

Construction has begun on a new parking facility adjacent to the

Paterson campus. Construction has also begun on the expansion to

student activities. This project includes the renovation of exercise facilities

as well as the creation of new offices and multi-use space. Construction

at the new academic center in Passaic continues on schedule with

expected occupancy in Fall 2007.
