Plotnick writing sample - Wake Tech Training the Corporate Workforce
When Jeff Benes and Bob Mackowiak started their own manufacturing company, Catalyst Manufacturing, after being laid off, they received training from Wake Tech Community College (WTCC) in both hard skills like operating equipment and soft skills like leadership and communication. This training helped Catalyst Manufacturing grow into a multimillion dollar company with facilities in North Carolina, New York, and Mexico employing 300 people. WTCC provides valuable workforce training to many companies in the region from small startups to large multinational corporations, helping to attract and retain high-tech industries to the area. As the economic landscape changes, WTCC adapts its training programs to meet emerging needs like bilingual medical training and retraining displaced workers
Generations
- Baby boomers currently make up the largest percentage of the workforce but face increased competition from younger generations for jobs as skills requirements change.
- As hierarchies flatten and middle management jobs decrease, older workers who lack current technical skills face greater unemployment risks compared to younger, tech-savvy job seekers.
- Retraining programs can help older displaced workers but older individuals often participate and benefit from retraining at lower rates than younger workers. Acquiring new technical skills through education can improve older job seekers' employment prospects.
connection between robotization and poverty
This document discusses the connection between robotization and poverty. It notes that robotization is replacing human labor and depriving many of jobs. This leads to higher unemployment and poverty as lower-skilled workers struggle to find work. While robotization increases production and opens opportunities, it also widens the wealth gap and exacerbates income inequality. The document examines statistics on automation and job losses and argues governments must help workers through retraining as robotization continues disrupting labor markets.

Certifications/credentials – which ones matter to manufacturing employers? Brian Lee – Metrix Learning
There are so many credentials in the marketplace...and increasingly, there are short term certifications. There are a multitude of certification providers. So how do you know which ones are truly valuable in the employment marketplace? Metrix learning is becoming a one stop shop for nearly every kind of certification you can think of! Their unique collaboration with multiple large certification providers such as skillsoft, certiport, Medcom trainex, Kenexa and more has produced a wonderful format for developing targeted career pathways.
Brian Lee – New York CEO, Metrix Learning
New York Wired for Education, LLC (New York Wired), founded in 1991, was originally established to provide state and local governments, not-for-profits agencies, and corporations with innovative and affordable training programs and technology solutions. New York Wired is now the only eTraining company solely focused on the needs of the public workforce training and development market. Using a combination of eLearning technology, instructor-led training and custom development, New York Wired has provided training programs to more than 50,000 adult learners in
over 15 states. In 2008, New York Wired introduced Metrix Learning, its Web-based learning management system (LMS). Metrix was designed to meet the current and emerging training service delivery needs of Workforce Investment Boards (WIBs) and their customers (unemployed, under-employed and dislocated workers) that require new skills, enhanced skills, and certification training programs to prepare them for new employment opportunities.
Brian is the CEO of Metrix Learning and has been with New York Wired for Education for fourteen years. Prior to working with New York Wired for Education, Brian worked as the Director of State Technologies, Inc. and in Executive and Government sales for Xerox.
The Manufacturing Skills Gap
The U.S. manufacturing industry flourished in the first half of the 20th century, promoting leaner production and new technologies. In the early 2000s, however, the manufacturing industry began to experience what is now being called a “skills gap.” The decline of apprenticeship and training programs across the nation has widened the gap between experienced and novice manufacturing engineers.
In honor of National Manfuacturing Day, Oct. 2, 2015, #ImAnEngineer took a closer look at the skills gap, it's social, economic and even political implications, and the role everyone - from employers, to educational institutions, to government organizations - can play in helping to close the gap once and for all.
Adecco_The Future of Jobs and Skills
This document discusses the future of skills and jobs in the context of evolving technology and automation. It notes that 45% of current jobs could be lost to automation, requiring workers to gain new skills. To prepare the workforce, the document calls for reforms to education to shift the focus from IQ to skills like leadership, empathy and communication. It proposes that companies and programs like Adecco's CEO for One Month initiative can help bridge the gap between education and work readiness by developing well-rounded professionals. The future will require constantly retraining workers as core skills change rapidly and an estimated 35% of skills will be different by 2020.

Blog – What is next for HR and Human Capital Management
I have written many blogs on HR-related issues for many years. The closing of the skill gaps has still not been resolved. In fact, one could argue the skills gaps has increased due to many factors like business automation, industry 4.0, advance manufacturing, ESG reporting, movement to the circular economy, 3D housing, etc.
More needs to be done to better align skills with jobs of today and tomorrow.

Skills Gap - Canada - Commentary and Analysis - September 2018
The role of government is defined the educational programs required to support the economy. Too many govts across
Canada have pushed programs that do not provide meaningful employment
The world continues to change as such governments need to address all their policies that support economic growth
Immigration should not be based on quota, but align where there voids in employment not filled by educational programs
Canada needs to become more competitive through reducing its reforming areas like taxation, regulations, trade/fipa deals and hydro rates.
All levels of government and the private sector need to fixed the education systems to ensure people have skills for today and tomorrow

This document discusses Ontario's labour market paradox - a projected skills shortage yet pockets of high unemployment, including among postsecondary graduates with disabilities. It finds that 29% of small-medium enterprises struggle to find qualified workers, yet there is an underutilized pool of postsecondary graduates with disabilities who face higher unemployment. The document examines barriers to employing persons with disabilities from both employer and job-seeker perspectives. It considers models to help bridge the gap between small-medium enterprises and postsecondary graduates with disabilities.

The document discusses theories of wage determination including human capital theory, the impact of labor unions on earnings, discrimination in the labor market, and compensating wage differentials. It provides examples and explanations of each concept, such as how union membership can increase wages but reduce employment levels, sources of discrimination in hiring and pay, and how riskier or less desirable jobs may pay higher wages to attract workers.

- 2. The Labour Market in Canada • More volatile than in the past • Which industries are shrinking? ▫ Manufacturing Textiles vs. Clothing: “less than 20 years ago, about 70% of the textile and clothing products consumed in Canada were made right here at home.” The clothing industry has lost jobs within the last 15 years, where the textile industry has stabilized The manufacture of clothing is labour-intensive Some Canadian textile companies now focus on “technical textiles”: advanced materials used in athletic wear and weather protection This involves more technology and therefore more capital Data from: “Stretching or Shrinking? The Textile and Clothing Industries in Canada”. Wyman, D. 2005. http://publications.gc.ca/collections/Collection/Statcan/11-621-M/11-621-MIE2005022.pdf

High school dropouts are expected to get just 8 per cent of the new jobs..” Flavelle, 2012. http://www.thestar.com/business/article/1114944--health-care-it-and-skilled-trades-are-the-canadian-jobs- of-the-future
