The Academic Plan (AP) of the Office of Academic Affairs (OAA) was developed through a process of open meetings, feedback sessions, and writing groups, designed to facilitate inclusive faculty participation and feedback. The process began in October 2018 and the plan was published in October 2019. The Academic Plan has four themes, each of which has several goals. Woven throughout these themes is KCC’s commitment to equity, as articulated in KCC’s formal Equity Statement and enacted through our ongoing work with the Achieving the Dream (ATD) national network.
EMSI Program Demand Gap Analysis
To support Theme Four, Renewing and Developing Programs for Evolving Needs, Kingsborough partnered with Emsi, a provider of labor market data, to complete a program demand gap analysis. This report outlines the region’s economy and uses the region’s average annual projected job openings between 2018 and 2028 as a measurement of labor market demand. Job openings are compared to the region’s supply of educational completions to determine how well KCC’s program offerings meet workforce demand. This report serves as a starting point as KCC continues to expand existing programs and develop new programs based on labor market data.
