2 Organization Name: Santa Barbara County WIB STATE USE ONLY Subgrant Number Project Number Initial Plan Modification Date Exhibit A Month/year REGIONAL INDUSTRY CLUSTERS OF OPPORTUNITY Proposal Narrative Form Section I Statement of Need 1. Describe the targeted region and why it was selected. The Workforce Collaborative of California s Central Coast (WCCCC) is comprised of the Workforce Investment Boards of Monterey, San Luis Obispo, Santa Barbara and Ventura Counties with the purpose of establishing mutually-beneficial relationships to improve workforce development on the Central Coast. Moreover, the WCCCC partners recognize that we share several industry sectors, including agriculture, hospitality and healthcare. Other critical Central Coast stakeholders have arrived at a similar conclusion-- most notably, the newly-formed Green Coast Innovation Zone with partners from Ventura, Santa Barbara, and San Luis Obispo counties. The Green Coast partners are comprised of economic development, government, educational institutions, private sector employers and workforce professionals, and it is their intent to make the tri-county area the Silicon Valley of the Green Industry. Thus, a strong workforce understanding of the new, emerging green industry will be needed in this effort. The California Economic Strategy Panel identifies the Central Coast as one of the nine economic regions in the state. The WCCCC focuses on shared demographics and priorities to strategically align and leverage opportunities for WIA and non-wia funding by creating a competitive edge for funding as a region. The California Regional Economies Project: Industry Clusters of Opportunity User Guide indicates that industry clusters are sectors of the economy identified by growth in one or more areas: value, jobs or wages. In conclusion, both the Green Coast partners and the WCCCC have identified the green industry as a cluster of opportunity as an emerging area for the Central Coast region that will grow in all of its counties. 2. If possible, describe the regional cluster of opportunity that will be targeted. Demonstrate how this regional cluster was selected including employer and industry involvement and how it will contribute to the economic recovery and stability of the region. Cite sources of data. In March 2009, the Santa Barbara County WIB commissioned a research study, Workforce Challenges and Opportunities in Santa Barbara County, which surveyed more than 100 Santa Barbara County-based employers. This study was also supported by the Santa Barbara and Goleta Chambers of Commerce who provided the researchers with access to their membership. Most notably, 39 percent of the employers surveyed indicated that at least a quarter of their current or future revenue was based on clean or green products or services. The study also found that clean and green employers are not concentrated in a single industry or traditional industry cluster-- instead, they are more likely to be found in a variety of industries, including construction and design, energy, agriculture, the public sector and even manufacturing.

3 The green economy incorporates all levels of education and skill sets that will increase job opportunities for the Central Coast workforce. The most immediate employment opportunities identified by the study are green construction and design, the public sector and utilities renewable energy product installation, energy and technology market-based green solutions and green agriculture (including the development of bio-based materials). In addition, the Ventura Community College s South Central Region Center of Excellence identifies top jobs in their study of the tri-county region titled Green Industry and Jobs in California. The jobs identified are solar system installers, wind turbine technicians, energy efficiency occupations, cost estimators for green building and retrofitting, ethanol and bio-diesel production technicians and alternative fuel automotive technicians. 3. Using supported data and analysis, describe the current and projected employment opportunities in the regional cluster and the skills gap between what is needed by the cluster and the skill levels of the labor force. If possible, provide number of jobs available in the targeted regional cluster. The emerging green industries in the Central Coast region are not neatly segmented or defined by traditional industry clusters-- rather; they are delineated or categorized along several different industry clusters or segments. According to the Centers of Excellence, June 2009, Understanding the Green Economy in California, all green firms can fit into one of six green sectors, which include; Renewable energy, energy generation, systems installation and storage Green building and energy efficiency, Biofuels production and farming, Transportation and alternative fuels, Water, wastewater and waste Management, and Environmental compliance and sustainability planning. While there are more granular green industry classifications for green firms, this relatively simple classification structure identifies some of the more important employment opportunities for green industry employment in the Central Coast. Employment in agriculture represents between 12 and 13 percent of total employment in the region, and at least five percent in each county, well over the two to three percent employment it represents in California as a whole. The strong agricultural economy in the region, combined with the prestigious academic institutions in the region, such as California Polytechnic State University San Luis Obispo and University California at Santa Barbara provide key ingredients in the development of biofuels production, alternative fuels and green farming opportunities. Employment in construction provides another opportunity for the region, as over 5,000 construction jobs have been lost over the last 12 months alone in the Central Coast and energy retrofits and the development of green buildings provide the opportunity for additional employment into the future. 4. If data analysis has not yet been done for the region, describe the need to do so and how the information will help in understanding the region s transforming economy. Proposal Narrative Form Page 2 of 8 10/09

4 Organizations up and down the Central Coast-- from San Luis Obispo s Economic Vitality Corporation to Goleta s Chamber of Commerce to Ventura County s Economic Development Association-- have recently committed themselves to developing and expanding green industries. These county-specific organizations have also begun to look beyond their county borders to partner with the Green Coast Innovation Zone to develop a regional approach to growing green industries within the Central Coast region. With all of these new commitments and even a new organization to support the growth of green industries, there has been very little research specific to any of the four counties or the region as a whole as it relates to the green economy and more specifically, the workforce needs of employers currently in green industries or the workforce opportunities in the near future. Some of the recent workforce studies have touched upon the need to examine green industries in each of the four counties, but nothing has been done at a regional level. Most of the more valuable insights on green industries in the Central Coast come from statewide research extrapolated down to the regional or county level. This is a critical time to engage with economic development organizations, educational institutions and green employers to better understand the workforce development opportunities in the Central Coast for green industries. The research and analysis that will be developed in the first and second phase of this proposal will provide a valuable data-driven foundation for the workforce and economic development organizations that are just beginning to plan and implement in the initial strategies to developing the green industries in the Central Coast. Section II Proposed Objectives and Activities 1. Describe how the applicant will implement the continuum of activities (i.e. Cluster of Opportunities Diagnosis; Collaborative Priority-Setting; Cluster of Opportunity Investment Strategy, and Sustainable Implementation). Santa Barbara County WIB, acting for purposes of this solicitation as lead agency on behalf of the Workforce Collaborative of California s Central Coast (WCCCC), proposes a three phase approach for developing the green industry clusters of opportunity across the Central Coast Region. The three phase approach will initially evaluate and assess the available resources and research that are available in the region, using the clusters of opportunity to diagnosis and develop a comprehensive understanding of the region s green industries. The second phase of this approach will bring the region s green cluster stakeholders together to review the findings of the first phase and identify strategies using the collaborative priority-setting methodology. The third and final phase of this initiative would be to develop a regional plan and workforce investment strategy based on the resources and strategies that were identified and developed in the first two phases of the proposed approach. 2. Since the intent of the activities is sequential, the narrative must demonstrate how previous activities have been accomplished or will be accomplished. Phase 1: Assessment of Green Industry Resources and Comprehensive Regional Industry Profile. The purpose of the first phase is to better understand the green industries that exist in the central coast. The initiative would also be committed to understanding how the broader green industry Proposal Narrative Form Page 3 of 8 10/09

5 can be better defined and delineated for the region today and tomorrow. The initial phase of the initiative will also seek to better understand how the regional development of green industries in the Central Coast compares to the development of green industries in California, and the nation to better understand the strengths, weaknesses and opportunities that exist within the region. Activities for Phase 1: The first phase of this initiative includes several activities that provide the foundation for the collaborative planning, strategies and initial investment recommendations that will ultimately come out of this process. The three central activities in this phase include: 1. Developing regional research deliverables and tools that provide a data-driven foundation for identifying challenges and opportunities that provide direction in the development of green industry clusters in the region. 2. Coordinating and communicating with green industry regional leaders and advisors to inform the development of these deliverables. 3. Producing deliverables that will educate and empower stakeholders to develop outcomes and strategies in the development of the region s green industry clusters. Key deliverables from Phase 1: 1. Asset mapping of the region s green industry resources. These resources include employers, research institutions, education and training facilities and programs, and all other relevant regional workforce and economic development entities. This deliverable will be developed by the Central Coast s South Central Region Center of Excellence with assistance from BW Research. 2. An initial description of the key green industry segments in the Central Coast along with a regional profile of the employers, occupations and skills sets that make up each segment. This deliverable will be developed by BW Research with the Assistance of the Center of Excellence for the Central Coast. 3. A synopsis of the available research and resources relevant to workforce and economic development of green industry clusters in the Central Coast. This synopsis will also include a comparative analysis of the regional green industry economy to California and the national economy. This deliverable will be developed by BW Research. Phase 2: Engage stakeholders, build upon research findings and identify regional strategies. The purpose of the second phase of the initiative is to bring together regional green stakeholders and identify what the region can build upon, what the region needs to further develop, expand and support green industries within the region, and an initial list of outcomes and strategies that will form the basis of the regional planning and initial investments developed in the final phase of this process. Activities for Phase 2: The activities in the second phase of research are focused on establishing a collaborative approach to identify and find agreement around the outcomes and strategies that will determine the region s response to workforce Proposal Narrative Form Page 4 of 8 10/09

6 development for the region s green industry clusters. The activities in the second phase are focused on communication, collaboration and working towards consensus. They include: 1. Identifying green industry regional stakeholders and facilitating meetings, workshops and surveys to better understand the current and future workforce needs of the region s green industry clusters. 2. Developing and finding consensus around the regional outcomes and strategies that will define the region s approach to workforce development with the green industry clusters. 3. Communicating with stakeholders to determine regional priorities and understanding which regional strategies have the opportunity to be successful and have the biggest impact on the identified outcomes. Key Deliverables for Phase 2: 1. A list of shared outcomes and strategies that stakeholders will use as the basis to develop the regional plans and initial investments that are determined in the third phase of this process. This deliverable will be developed by the Santa Barbara WIB with assistance from BW Research and the Green Coast Innovation Zone. 2. An online web portal that provides collaborative tools for regional stakeholders while also communicating to the greater public the opportunities associated with the region s green industry clusters. This tool will be developed by BW Research with assistance from the Green Coast Innovation Zone. 3. A regional green industry clusters employer survey to gather feedback on the current and expected workforce needs of employers as well as support for potential regional workforce development strategies. The survey will be developed and administered by BW Research with the assistance of the Green Coast Innovation Zone and the Central Coast s South Central Region Center of Excellence. Phase 3 Develop a regional action plan with initial investment strategies. The purpose of this phase of the research is to identify what should be done regionally to support and promote green industries in the Central Coast and develop demand-driven workforce development in the Central Coast. The final phase is also focused on implementing strategies that sustain this initiative well into the future. Activities for Phase 3: The activities in the third phase of the initiative are focused on developing and finalizing the regional plans as well as identifying those organizations and individuals that will be leading and governing this initiative into the future. Many of the activities that were started in the second phase of this initiative will be continued and further developed in this third and final phase, including communicating and collaborating with regional stakeholders as well as continually to develop and refine the communications tools such as the online portal. Key Deliverables from Phase 3: Proposal Narrative Form Page 5 of 8 10/09

7 1. A set of regional metrics based upon the identified outcomes and agreed upon by the region s stakeholders. This deliverable will be developed by the Santa Barbara County WIB with assistance from BW Research and the Green Coast Innovation Zone. 2. A regional plan and initial investment strategy to meet the outcomes identified in this phase. This final deliverable will include the final report for this initiative detailing the research, the process and the steps that have been taken to sustain this initiative beyond the initial funding of this grant. This report will be developed by the Santa Barbara County WIB and BW Research with assistance from the Green Coast Innovation Zone. Section III Outcomes 1. Describe the anticipated outcome(s) of the project activities. Outcomes will play a central role in this initiative, both in terms of the outcomes that can be identified now and those that stakeholders will develop and agree upon to use as the foundation for the initiative s regional plan and initial investments. The different types of outcomes for the purpose of this discussion will be defined as process outcomes, those that can be identified as part of the planning for the initiative and expected outcomes, those that will be identified and agreed upon by stakeholders as the initiative develops. Process Outcomes: The proposed initiative is meant to be foundational, which in this case, means that each phase of the initiative will build upon the work that has already been completed to achieve progressively more challenging outcomes. The initial phase of this initiative is focused on building upon the work that has already been done by regional organizations like the Green Coast Innovation Zone as well as statewide organizations like the Employment Development Department in working to define and better understand the green industry clusters in the Central Coast. The first phase outcomes are about developing deliverables that build upon the work that has already been done, while providing stakeholders the information and resources that will empower them to make decisions based on data-driven analyses. The second phase of the initiative is focused on developing a region-wide collaborative approach to identifying strategies and developing priorities. The second phase outcomes are about developing expected outcomes and strategies among stakeholders that will facilitate finalizing an effective regional plan and initial investment strategy in the final phase of the initiative. Another critical outcome is to identify those strategies and opportunities that: arise from the research developed in the first phase, are widely supported by the stakeholders, and can be effectively implemented at the regional level. The third phase of the initiative is focused on developing and beginning to operationalize the strategies and initial investments that were identified and developed in the second phase of the initiative. The third phase outcomes are about assigning regional leaders and organizations that will sustain the planning, programs and investments that were developed out of the initiative. Another valuable outcome in this final phase of the initiative is to develop and begin measuring those metrics that will assist in determining the success and/ or failure of the initiative s strategies.

8 2. Describe how the project activities will be measured to determine whether the anticipated outcomes have been achieved. In order to achieve the anticipated outcomes, the project activities will be measured. In order to achieve the objectives we will measure: Have we collected previous data from each of the four WCCCC counties on green industries? Have we disseminated the previous data to the Stakeholders, as baseline data? Have we conducted at least one Stakeholders meeting in each County; and one region-wide to discuss the previous data, the mission of the project, and the research project process? Have we conducted RICOO-funded research across all four counties, with acceptable response rates? Have we provided the RICOO-funded research to the Stakeholders in presentations? Have we developed, with the assistance of the regional Stakeholders, and region-wide investment strategy for the green industry? Have the four WIBs accepted the RICOO-funded research and designated Industry Clusters in accordance with the results. Have the One-Stops within the WCCCC initiated operations of the adopted strategies including focusing training dollars consistent with the study findings. Section IV Local Partnerships and Leveraged Resources 1. Describe how the Applicant has successfully formed effective partnerships. Provide descriptions of any formal or informal agreements that exist with the partners. The Santa Barbara, Monterey, Ventura and San Luis Obispo County WIBs have a signed Memorandum of Understanding to collaborate, where feasible, on workforce development activities to enhance the region s competitiveness. This MOU was approved by the each of the Workforce Boards of the partnering WIBs, and the CLEO, where applicable. One tangible result of this collaboration is the award by the California Endowment of $50,000 in development funds to collaborate on ways to enhance the region s allied healthcare industry. The Santa Barbara County WIB has participated in a number of successful partnerships in addressing countywide and regional workforce needs. Currently, the WIB is partnering with the San Luis Obispo and Ventura County WIBs in supporting the on-going, tri-county efforts of the Green Coast Innovation Zone that is attempting to foster the development of green and clean energy industries throughout the region. The partners in the Zone include the Ventura Economic Development Corporation, the SLO Economic Vitality Group, the Santa Barbara Community Energy Commission, UCSB, the County of Santa Barbara and the Goleta Chamber of Commerce. This same partnership is currently applying for State Designation as an Innovation Hub or ihub. In addition, the Santa Barbara County WIB and the San Luis Obispo WIB have successfully competed for ARRA funding from the State under the California Energy Training Program solicitation that will allow us to train 200 WIA-eligible participants in the new clean and green industry sectors. This project also partners Santa Barbara WIB with the Santa Barbara Community College s Green Building Academy. ly, the Santa Barbara County WIB has partnered with the community-based organization, Community Action Commission (CAC) to develop and implement a county-wide Youth Corps that provides Proposal Narrative Form Page 7 of 8 10/09
