Considerations for ETC Annual Program Assessment Reports

The Employment Training Center offers non-credit vocational training programs designed to ease the transition to the workforce and prepare individuals for academic and/or professional careers. These programs operate year-round and have frequent entry and exit dates (at least one per month). The durations of the programs range from 3 weeks to 17 weeks. The training programs are short-term by design.

In addition to our programs, ETC is able to create, modify, and design customized workshops and courses tailored to meet the needs of Hawaii's employers and the dynamic changing labor market.

As such, ETC programs do not generate data in semesters, majors, SSHs, transfer rates, persistence or other indicators used in credit-based program review. ETC intakes may also bridge fiscal years, i.e., a training program with an intake in June (with a course completion in September) may bridge into the next fiscal year; consequently, enrollment data for these training programs will not be detailed in this report.

The indicators used in this annual program assessment report have been modified and re-Iabeled to reflect the nature of ETC training programs.

Part I. Executive Summary of Program Status

Review of the program rating

Overall Program Status

The Nurse Assistant Training Program (NATP) is funded by a grant from Alu Like. This project's goal is to provide nurse assistant training for at least 72 native Hawaiians. The total budget is $143,277 with the following breakdown:

Salaries $85,964 Fringe Benefits 30,663 Travel 600 Consumable Supplies 12,960 Other Operating Expenses 4,980 Indirect Costs 8,110

Grant Total $143,277 Remaining balance 71,082 Total Expended $72,195

Salaries: 1.0 FTE Nurse Assistant Instructor .25 FTE Community Developer .25 FTE Program Counselor

Classroom Supplies & Uniform: Blood pressure kit and one set of scrubs uniform for each student Textbook and supplies for each student All other classroom supplies for demonstration and lecture

Because of the lack of a qualified instructor during this program year, there were only four intakes. Therefore, $71,082 was left remaining.

This NATP was the first on Oahu to be State approved in February 2005. In August 2005, the instructor left this project to pursue other opportunities. After her departure, we were able to offer one more class in 2005 with a casual hire instructor. To complete the obligation of this contract, we offered 3 more classes from June to July 2006 with instructional services from Healthcare Training and Career Consultants, Inc.

For this fiscal year, the total number of native Hawaiian students served was 58. The grant was extended for one more year to July 2007 to serve at least 72 native Hawaiians.

+/-+ + ---+ + + +

Internal Demand: Nurse assistant training is a relatively new program to ETC. This program enjoys the support of many various community agencies and the ETC classes typically run at capacity. In 2003 ETC lost continued funding from the Department of Labor but received funding from Alu Like, Inc., Career & Technical Education. This caused a drop in enrollment since we were only able to serve the native Hawaiians.

Program Year Total Enrollment 1999 - 2000 125 2000 - 2001 111 2001 - 2002 184 2002 - 2003 130 2003 - 2004 58 2004 - 2005 99

External Demand: According to 2000-2010 Industry Employment Projection for the State of Hawaii, "Employment Outlook for Industries and Occupations 2000-2010" www.state.hLus/dlir/rs/loihi the certified nursing field will have the following growth:

industry 2000 2010 Change in Avg. Annual Trends Employment Growth C.N.A. 41,200 51,280 10,880 2.4%

This demand demonstrates the viability of the program and shows the vital need to continue this type of vocational training.

Part II. Program Description

Description and history of the program

The ETC Nurse Assistant Training Program (NATP) was developed in response to the State Department of Labor's request to help fill the need for nurse assistants in the labor market as well as to fill a training need on Oahu. ETC began the program October 1999. Test for Adult Basic Education (TABE) scores of students referred to ETC showed that these students would not meet the minimum requirements at Kapiolani Community College's Nurse Assistant Program. ETC developed an Integrated Academics component to complement the skills training and to increase successful completions.

In 1999 ETC received a 4-year grant to serve the Samoan, Asian Immigrants, and Pacific Islanders for nurse assistant training. The grant covered all expenses for qualified students: nursing skills instruction, books and supplies, uniform, blood pressure kit, counseling, Integrated Academics instruction, and job searching services.

In August 2004 ETC received a similar grant from Alu Like Inc, Career & Technical Education, to provide nurse assistant training for native Hawaiians. This grant was extended to July 2006 and once again to July 2007.

In February 2005 ETC's NATP was the first on Oahu to be State approved.

Program goals/occupations for which this program prepares students

Part IV. Assessment Chart for Program SlOs

Program SLOs (until June 2006)

Students who complete ETC programs will be able to: • Identify and use tools and resources necessary to continue their chosen lifelong

learning pursuits • Provide and accept constructive criticism, contrasting points of view • Demonstrate proficiency in basic math, reading, writing, listening, and speaking skills • Transfer learning from one environment to another .. Update vocational, technical, and technological skills • Develop, practice, and evaluate problem-solving strategies .. Develop, practice, and evaluate goal-setting strategies • Demonstrate cultural awareness; acknowledge and respect the uniqueness of others .. Demonstrate learning related to employability skills and attitudes .. Demonstrate interpersonal skills necessary to work effectively in diverse groups

These SLOs were cross referenced to course competencies. See pages 21-22 for grid. Assessment of program SLOs corresponded to assessment of course competencies. For this program, no formal assessment data is available.

Changes made as a result of findings

The Program SLOs as stated above in this Annual Program Assessment Report no longer applies.

ETC's 2006-2007 Program Catalog states the following ETC SLOs: Students who successfully complete ETC programs will: .. Demonstrate career and employment readiness .. Broaden and enhance their workforce capabilities .. Pursue further education and training opportunities .. Continue pursuits that enrich their lives

Nurse Assistant Training Program SLOs, effective July 2006: Students who successfully complete the NATP will: .. Learn the fundamentals of caregiving .. Demonstrate nursing procedures and skills required of nurse assistants .. Demonstrate CPR and First Aid skills .. Apply nursing skills in clinical setting .. Prepare for Hawaii State Nurse Assistant Competency Evaluation Testing

Program

NATP Course Competencies: See attached WCC-ETC Program Competencies -Course Analysis, 2006

For FY 2006-07, assessment data will be collected for ETC SLOs, Nurse Assistant Training Program SLOs, and NA TP Course Competencies. The instructor will determine the appropriate assessment tools.

Page 20: ANNUAL PROGRAM ASSESSMENT REPORT for … Programs Nurse Assistant Training for Fiscal Year 2005·2006 ... Program Description ... (2Pl) Placement into employment (3Pl)

Part V. Curriculum Revision and Review

The curriculum is designed for students desiring entry-level employment or to enhance their skills in the field of nurse assistant. Some are already employed in the field and are taking the course to prepare for the certification examination.

Course SLOs, effective July 2006 • Learn the fundamentals of caregiving • Demonstrate nursing procedures and skills required of nurse assistants • Demonstrate CPR and First Aid skills • Apply nursing skills in clinical setting • Prepare for Hawaii State Nurse Assistant Competency Evaluation Testing Program

During this annual assessment period, ETC had determined that the course competencies served as the course SLOs. Since July 2006, each program and course has its own set of SLOs. For this NATP, program and course is one and the same.

Part VII. Analysis of the Program

Alignment with the mission statement

This program is closely aligned with the mission statement. Students learn vocational skills and develop positive attitudes and behavior for work.

Strengths and weaknesses based on analysis of data

Strengths

• High demand for occupation • High demand for nurse assistant training • High completion rate of training: 88% • 100% of training funded by grant, including supplies, books, uniform, and blood

pressure kit

Weaknesses

• Lack of qualified nurse assistant instructor; namely, one who meets requirements for State-approved NATPs. The high demand for nurses in the State compounded with finding one with at least one year's experience in a long-term care facility as an RN makes it difficult to fill the instructor position. This position has been vacant for over a year. We are in the process of recruiting again.

Evidence of quality

Evidence will be captured once classes start up again when qualified instructor is hired.

Evidence of student learning

Evidence will be captured once classes start up again when qualified instructor is hired.

Resource sufficiency

Room is fully equipped with hospital beds, curtains, blood pressure kits, videos, etc. Classroom met State approval for certification.

Recommendations for improving outcomes

To improve program outcomes the program needs to hire a qualified instructor.

15

Page 23: ANNUAL PROGRAM ASSESSMENT REPORT for … Programs Nurse Assistant Training for Fiscal Year 2005·2006 ... Program Description ... (2Pl) Placement into employment (3Pl)

Part VIII. Action Plan

The program has developed the following action plan:

.. Recruit and hire a qualified nurse assistant instructor

.. Develop assessment tools to measure quality of learning

.. Gather evidence of student learning

.. Follow up with graduates about employment and further training or education

.. Survey employers of graduates to gather information about satisfaction, skills attainment, and attitudes/behaviors

.. Expand health-related training programs because of the high occupational demand; i.e. home health aide, medical terminology

.. Work on articulation agreement with Kapiolani Community College for career ladder education in nursing

16

Part IX. Budget Implications

The program's Action Plan and the improvement of outcome gathering would like to request the following:

• 1.0 FTE Nurse Assistant Instructor, general funded • .25 FTE Program Counselor, general funded • .25 FTE Integrated Academics Instructor, general funded

The nursing occupation is high demand, high skill, and high wage. Resources should be directed to expand this program with a broader scope: healthcare workforce training. Related courses such as home health aide training, phlebotomy, etc., would meet the needs of the State. Articulation agreements with Kapiolani Community College would promote career ladder training in the healthcare field.
