Project Request/Statement of Need
The Long Island Aerospace industry is a major contributor to the New York State economy
The growth of this critical industry depends on employee skills development because of the expected job growth in aerospace over the next ten years
Growth will be potentially limited by the ability to hire new employees, with the required skills
Rapid technological advances will require incumbent worker education/training

Project Management Plan
Meetings of the Career Mapping Subcommittee will be convened on a regular basis to evaluate the progress of the Project and to provide direction to the ADDAPT and SBRF consultants for future activities
Copies of all reports submitted by the consultants to the NYSDOL Workforce Development and Training Division will be simultaneously distributed to the Subcommittee representatives
These reports, along with additional scanning information, will guide the Subcommittee in its efforts to support and adjust the Project, as needed
The Subcommittee will report the progress of the Project to the Business Services Team, the Long Island Consortium for Workforce Development, the LWIBS and other appropriate organizations
Workforce New York Long Island Business Services Team Mapping Careers

Project Management Plan (Continued)
The Project will be jointly operated by ADDAPT and SBRF, under separate contractual agreements with NYSDOL
SBRF will coordinate the Career Mapping assignments for the Project and will
serve as the liaison to the Career Mapping Subcommittee
Working in close coordination with ADDAPT, SBRF will report to the Subcommittee to inform it of the status planned, active and completed projects
Both consultants will be trained to cross-market workforce investment products and services in the course of their Career Mapping activities
Issues that arise requiring direction or clarification regarding the coordination of the Project will be submitted by SBRF to the Subcommittee
Workforce New York Long Island Business Services Team Mapping Careers

Project Management Plan (Continued)
Career Mapping will be included in the portfolio of products offered to business by the three LWIBS and the Business Services Team
Information regarding the services available through the project will be included in local workforce investment system marketing material, both in hard copy and on-line
Information sessions for businesses and business organizations will be convened at local One-Stop Centers, at LWIB meetings and at other appropriate venues, in a manner that establishes a clear connection between the Project and the workforce investment system

Findings: Industry Issues of Concern Regarding Worker Skills
Qualifications of high school graduates (K-12 students) and vocational school graduates for entry level jobs
Verbal and written communication skills are a major problem with both new and existing employees (Exacerbated by the influx of recent immigrants)
Ability to work in a “team” environment is lacking (poor interpersonal skills)
Understanding of basic math and science is a major shortcoming of both high school graduates and many college graduates entering this industry
Workforce New York Long Island Business Services Team Mapping Careers
16
Findings: Industry Training Needs
There is a critical need to develop and facilitate a training facility on Long Island to train “hands on” workers in the metal fabrication trades
Incumbent worker training in blue print reading Industry specific training for incumbent workers in management
skills, lean manufacturing process improvement training and ISO 9000 training prior to company certification
Specialized company training where training curriculum and associated resources are difficult to identify in the local academic and private training providers
This training is only available from the suppliers of the specialized and technically sophisticated capital equipment and Manufacturing/Enterprise Resource Planning systems (MRP/ERP)
Workforce New York Long Island Business Services Team Mapping Careers
17
Findings: Industry Trends
Some industries are moving away from “metals” to “composites” They are already “spinning” an aircraft fuselage from composite
materials Major manufacturers are no longer buying just component parts
or just machined components, they are buying major subassemblies
Small manufacturers must grow to be “mini” prime contractors or be acquired by larger companies
These changes will result in the need for completely different manufacturing processes and management techniques that the typical small company does not currently have, resulting in extensive re-training of the incumbent work force
Workforce New York Long Island Business Services Team Mapping Careers
18
Major military and commercial prime contractors such as Boeing, Lockheed Martin and the European Aeronautic Defense and Space Company (EADS) will be competing for major US military contracts for the first time
Examples:
Competition to replace the 40 year old US Air Force tanker aircraft (EADS vs. Boeing)
Contract just won by a team of a US and British European company to produce the US Presidential helicopter
These contractors typically involve consortiums of foreign and US contractors who must work together resulting in extensive training requirements to address the difference in cultures, language, business practices and the complexities of the US regulations including international trade
Workforce New York Long Island Business Services Team Mapping Careers
19
These changes will have a dramatic impact on both the incumbent work force and the required improvements in training and the skills that will be required of entry level employees from K-12 public education system and graduates of universities and colleges
Examples:
Business and financial practices associated with international trade Must speak several languages Understanding of Export Administration
Regulations (EAR), ITAR regulations and documentation required for US export compliance

Deliverable documentation, as a result of the first year assessment/study will include:
A composite organization chart, showing all of the functional elements and every job position in the first group of 24 companies.
Job descriptions, associated rankings and skill levels required for each job position
Wage rates ranges for each job description Currently required training (typical) for the job
