ABOUT THE COVER: The Macomb County Building is a Michigan Historical Marker. The design elements which grace the Macomb County Building’s facade include six granite figures perched atop the structure. When the designs for the figures were drawn, a military motif was favored because of the nearby presence of Selfridge Field. For that reason, the visages of a soldier, sailor, marine and airman were incorporated in the design. In a nod to the county’s history, the figures of a Revolutionary War soldier and a Native American were added as well. The front and back of the building feature the Revolutionary War soldier and Native American faces. The sailor and marine face Cass Avenue, while the soldier and airman gaze toward Selfridge Air National Guard Base.

Where the Jobs Are When people think about Macomb County’s legacy in the world of work, they think about skilled people who make things and who make things work. They think about the county’s outsized contribution to the region’s role as the Arsenal of Democracy during World War II.

And they think about the automotive industry.

What’s changed? Nothing… and everything.

Macomb County is still a powerhouse in the defense, advanced manufacturing and automotive sectors.

However, technology has not only integrally reframed how most jobs are done, and heightened the level of education and training needed to do them, but it has also created a convergence of fields within sectors. For example, information technology and cybersecurity is not only an industry in itself. It is also a vital aspect of the modern automotive industry, where next-generation mobility through connected and autonomous vehicles is fueling transformational growth. In addition, the county’s traditional bedrock industries are driving the growth of support sectors. Macomb County is home to a robust transportation logistics and warehousing industry that supports an advanced manufacturing industry that is a leader not only in the automotive sector, but also in the aerospace, robotics, and tool and die industries. Professional services, encompassing professional, scientific and technical services, provide specialized skills to the county’s businesses as well as direct to the consumer.

The Macomb County Department of Planning and Economic Development tracks industry and job growth. A look at high-growth categories from their analysis shows expected double-digit increases in job development between 2016–2020 in occupational areas related to engineering, information technology, architecture, construction, math and science.

What does job growth since 2010 look like by industry sectors in Macomb County?

• Advanced manufacturing: 46 percent growth through 2016, anticipated to be just under 50 percent by 2020

• Agriculture: 58.5 percent to 2016, expected to reach 60 percent by 2020

• Automotive: Three percent increase to 2016, expected to be near 10 percent by 2020

• Defense: Up 78 percent to 2016, with growth projected to hit nearly 110 percent by 2020

• Health Care and Social Assistance: 9.87 percent growth through 2016, growing to nearly 20 percent by 2020

• IT and Cybersecurity: 106 percent growth from 2010–16

• Logistics: 47 percent increase between 2010–16, continuing to near 50 percent by 2020

• Professional Services: 58.5 percent growth to 2016, reaching nearly 200 percent by 2020

There is an array of services available to the men and women who served our country with honor. Navigating those services,

however, can be a challenge. Fortunately, Macomb County service agencies operate under a “no wrong door” policy and work together to get veterans the assistance they need and have earned.

“The Macomb County Veteran Services Center is great about trying to help,” says Kara Fields, director of Macomb Community College’s Office of Veteran and Military Services. “They listen to the individual and try to refer them to one or two organizations that best fits their needs.”

Located in the VerKuilen Building on Dunham Road in Clinton Township, the Macomb County Veteran Services Center is usually the first place Fields sends veterans when their needs or questions go beyond educational benefits. The center assists veterans with housing; using health care, burial and memorial benefits; and filing disability claims. It also provides emergency funding assistance.

Another organization that Fields aligns herself closely with is the Macomb Veterans Action Collaborative (MVAC), which works out of the Macomb County Veteran Services Center. The collaborative was formed in 2013 by representatives from several service agencies in Macomb County. Their goal is to help vets and their families navigate the network of available VA benefits and services. MVAC works with other veteran service agencies to ensure all veterans, regardless of which Macomb agency they initially connect with, are directed to the right one for the resource they need—the “no wrong door” policy.

Fields and her staff also recently collaborated with the Macomb County Vet Center in Clinton Township, which operates under the auspices of the U.S. Department of Veteran Affairs, to provide trauma-sensitive yoga classes to Macomb’s student veterans. The Macomb Vet Center specializes in rehabilitation counseling, and one of its counselors is currently training to become a yoga instructor. She intends to donate her time to teach the classes in the future so they can be offered at no charge to all Macomb County veterans. The current yoga instructor’s salary is paid for by an Innovation Award from the college.

Veteran Community Action Teams, sponsored by the Michigan Department of Veteran Affairs, also offer a variety of (VCATs) services to vets in Macomb County and across the entire state. Comprised of representatives from federal, state, local and faith-based organizations, the VCATs are divided between 10 regions in Michigan and are dedicated to bridging any gaps in services that could impede the quality of life for veterans and their families.

Waking Up… Ready to Learn: How one National Guard member uses educational benefits to fulfill career goals

Gage Ruehlen has served in the National Guard for four years, but while attending a university during the first three, he never accessed any of the financial aid benefits that come with being a service member.

“The nice thing about Macomb is they’ll do it all for you,” Ruehlen says of the College’s Office of Veteran & Military Services. “They take care of everything.”

Ruehlen, a Chesterfield Township native, says he serves because of a sense of civic duty, which is why he’s studying accounting at Macomb, with hopes of earning a bachelor’s at Walsh and joining the FBI.

“I’ve always been someone to ask ‘why,’ and accounting explains the ‘why,’” he says.

There are unique challenges to being a student serving in the National Guard. The military training that has pushed his physical and mental limits can occasionally interfere with his academic responsibilities.

“I’ve talked to every one of my professors about the military and that I might have to miss something for training, and they’ve all been really understanding and wished me well,” says Ruehlen.

Ruehlen has earned straight As in his accounting classes and is now tutoring fellow students in accounting at the Center Campus Learning Center and, according to Ann Chirco, Learning Center manager, he’s “outstanding” at it.

“The classroom atmosphere (at Macomb) has made it really easy,” says Ruehlen. “It’s smaller, so you’re more in tune to the other people in class. I’ve already made way more friends at Macomb.”

And much like the National Guard has taught him that he can do whatever he sets his mind to, so has following a course of study that excites him.

“I  wake up and I  want to learn,” he says. “That makes it easy.”

Services in Macomb County

There are currently 670 veterans, 544 dependents and 163 active military attending Macomb Community College. In fulfilling her office’s role as the main point of contact for military-affiliated students, Fields strives to stay connected to the veteran services network. She serves as education chair to both MVAC and Motor City VCAT, the latter providing assistance to vets in Macomb, Wayne and Oakland counties. Additionally, she is vice chair of the Consortium of Michigan Veterans Educators, a role that allows her to share Macomb’s best practices with other colleges and universities.

“Through data collection at Macomb, we identify incoming students who are veterans, active military or dependents and encourage them to come to us for assistance in understanding and using their benefits and to connect them with services and resources in our community,” says Fields, who was raised by a military veteran—her great aunt. “We are working with other schools now to help them build their relationships with military-affiliated students.”

Pathways to Apprenticeships Despite the fact that the U.S. economy remains strong, many employers across the country are struggling with a skills gap—they have open positions, but they can’t find job applicants with the skills needed to fill those positions.

As Amazon, Microsoft, Accenture, J.P. Morgan Chase, Zurich Insurance, and many other employers are discovering, the apprenticeship model, which has been so successful in southeast Michigan and elsewhere when it comes to manufacturing and the skilled trades, can also be a valuable workforce development tool in virtually any industry where employers are struggling to fill key positions.

Apprenticeships have long been associated with manufacturing, construction and the skilled trades. What’s different about these new apprenticeships is that they’re designed to fill what might be considered “white collar” or “new collar” jobs. These include, for example, jobs in such fields as information technology, health care, hospitality, insurance, banking and finance.

Some regions of the country have also launched “Swiss-style” youth apprenticeship programs designed to feed the talent pipeline by engaging students while still in high school.

The state of Washington, for example, has recently created a Youth Apprenticeship program for the local aerospace and advanced manufacturing industries. This program will provide high school students with an opportunity to earn high school credits, tuition-free college credits and 2,000 hours of paid on-the-job training.

Similarly, the state of Colorado has recently launched its first Youth Apprenticeship program, which is designed to serve the state’s advanced manufacturing, business operations, financial services, health care and information technology industries. Its goal is to create over 20,000 apprenticeships in high-demand, high-pay occupations across multiple business sectors by 2027.

Other states launching earn-while-you-learn youth apprentice ship programs include South Carolina, Georgia, Kentucky, Oregon, Minnesota and Wisconsin.

It is hoped that one of the outcomes of such youth apprenticeship programs is that they will help lower the youth unemployment rate (currently around 9 percent nationally). Another potential outcome is that they will increase the diversity of apprenticeships. At the present time, for example, only 6 to 7 percent of registered apprentices in this country are female. Encouraging high school girls to pursue non-traditional careers in the skilled trades and broadening the scope of apprenticeships to include such fields as health care, information technology and finance may help to change that demographic.

Macomb Community College has also recently partnered with local high schools as well as employers in the manufacturing sector to create an innovative program called Michigan Apprenticeship Program Plus (MAP+). The goal of the MAP+ program

MAP+ provides high school students with pathways to apprenticeships

Thomas Oliver was a senior at Dakota High School when he told his counselor that despite his interest in science and math, he didn’t see college in his immediate future. That’s when she discussed the Michigan Apprenticeship Program Plus (MAP+) with him.

A partnership between Macomb and Grand Rapids community colleges, MAP+ is designed to provide apprenticeship career pathways to high school students through outreach to counselors, pre-apprentice and apprenticeship training, employer/student matching and associate degree attainment. Macomb focuses on manufacturing apprenticeships, including those in CNC, machining, tooling, die, mold making, welding and industrial maintenance, while Grand Rapids focuses on information technology. Macomb also offers apprenticeship programs in construction and climate control. The five-year MAP+ program, which debuted in 2015, is funded with a grant from the U.S. Department of Labor—Employment and Training Administration.

Central to its mission of connecting high school students with apprenticeships is the MAP+ Pre-Apprentice Training. Historically, apprenticeships were reserved for those already employed in a trade who could demonstrate to their employer that they had acquired the foundational skills necessary to serve as an apprentice. Successful completion of the pre-apprentice training fulfills that first step by assuring prospective employers that a job candidate is qualified to begin an apprenticeship, which, in most cases, will lead to permanent employment. Since its launch, MAP+ has drawn 233 new apprentices and 257 pre-apprentices. It has also received Automation Alley’s 2016 Outstanding Educational Initiative Award.

“Connecting high school students with skilled jobs that provide sustainable income is the heart and soul of this program, and my passion as well,” says John Kovalchuck, MAP+ instructor. “Frequently, students return to tell me of their success and how happy they are in their careers.”

Oliver, 18, believes he is well on the way. After completing the MAP+ Pre-Apprentice Training in 2017, he was hired by a local manufacturing company and is currently in a mold making apprenticeship.

“When I  first joined the MAP+ program, it felt intimidating to know that some of the other students in the class were already savvy in machining. But Mr. Kovalchuck quickly removed any fear in my mind,” says Oliver. “My experiences in the program will have a long-lasting, positive effect on me for the rest of my life.”

is to develop and expand apprenticeship career pathways, in part by building awareness of apprenticeship career opportunities in students while they’re still in high school.

According to the U.S. Department of Labor, apprenticeships offer numerous benefits including the following:

• Help businesses recruit and develop a highly skilled workforce• Reduce turnover costs and increase employee retention• Improve productivity and the bottom line• Provide opportunities for tax credits• Allow workers to earn and learn at the same time

Macomb has a great deal of experience in training apprentices. The college currently enrolls more than 500 apprentices sponsored by 76 different employers.

Partnering with local employers to provide apprenticeship programming is just one of many ways Macomb is committed to working with employers to create relevant career pathways for individuals and boost our region’s economic competitiveness.

U.S. Department of Labor and employers guide apprenticeships

Apprenticeships, which combine on-the-job training at a workplace site with classroom and lab instruction at a community college or other educational institution, are registered with the U.S. Department of Labor and regulated and certified by the same. Apprentices are selected by employers, traditionally from their existing workforce, upon demonstration of a foundational skillset that shows an employee is capable of meeting the requirements of an apprenticeship.

Similar to apprenticeships are employee-in-training programs, which also offer a combination of on-the-job training and classroom/laboratory instruction. Employee-in-training programs, however, are solely regulated by the employer.

In Demand: Health Care needs will continue to grow

Treating Patients Like Family: Compassion for the elderly is cornerstone of CNA program

Deborah Brown is a registered nurse (RN) with a work history that includes Harper, St. John, Oakland General and Providence hospitals. She has professional experience in cardiac care, emergency room, labor and delivery, psychiatric and medical/surgical units. But it’s her personal experiences as director of nursing at an adult care facility that greatly informed her development of Macomb’s Certified Nurse Assistant (CNA) curriculum in 2008.

“I love the health care field, and I love working with the elderly,” says Brown, lead faculty and coordinator of Macomb’s CNA program. “The foundation of quality health care is treating patients like family, and that is what I bring into the classroom. I make every student feel like someone cares about them, and teach them to do the same for their patients.”

That pay-it-forward approach takes center stage in the section Brown teaches on caring for elderly patients, one of the fastest growing segments in health care.

“I remind my students that one day, they will also be elderly,” says Brown, “and ask them how will they want to be cared for?”

Adding geriatrics to the curriculum, which was Brown’s idea, also had the intentional impact of extending Macomb’s CNA program a few weeks longer than others offered in the area.

“Because of the extra clinical practice, hospitals hire Macomb’s grads without any experience,” says Brown, recognized last year by the Macomb Career and Technical Education Administrators Association for the dual enrollment CNA program she coordinates at Armada High School. “With a 95 percent first-time pass rate on the certification exam, Macomb’s program is considered one of the best.”

One reason her students may do so well is the experience Brown brings to the classroom and the mutual respect that stems from it.

“I  was a nursing assistant for seven years before becoming an RN,” says Brown. “I  am able to show my students how they can advance from a CNA to a registered nurse.”

People living longer, baby boomers retiring from the workplace and continual advances in medicine all add up to increased career opportunities in health care. Additionally, a trend that encourages people to stay in their homes versus going to assisted living or a nursing facility has opened more job opportunities for those in the medical profession.

Employment opportunities are plentiful for those in the medical profession, especially for those who have completed their training through Macomb Community College.

According to Deborah Brown, coordinator of the Certified Nurse Assistant program, Macomb Workforce & Continuing Education, “We have hospitals waiting for our students to finish our program to hire them, even those without prior health care experience. In our Certified Nurse Assistant program, more than 90 percent of our students pass the state certification exam on their first attempt.”

According to Barbara Rossmann, president and CEO, Henry Ford Macomb Hospitals, and Terry Hamilton, president and CEO, St. John Macomb-Oakland, several factors are pushing the need for more health care providers.

“Trends driving opportunities include the aging population combined with the retirement of baby boomers now and in the next 10 years,” said Rossmann. “Also, health care is changing radically with an emphasis for care close to home and in ambulatory sites and virtually.”

Hamilton shares Rossmann’s view on the demand for those in the medical profession and expands on the need for more innovative ways for delivering care.

“Those going into health care careers can have real confidence in finding meaningful careers,” Hamilton said. “We all need health care, and our world is living longer, so job prospects for health care providers are excellent.”

8

As a leader in the health industry, Hamilton states that the skills needed to provide care will remain the same, but he predicts the manner in which health care is delivered will change.

“The role of the hospital and emergency rooms may change with more emphasis on urgent care, and primary care prevention will increase,” Hamilton said.

He envisions virtual care where a diagnosis could be made over a distance.

“We will need more people to help us change the way care is given,” Hamilton said. “Virtual care, or ‘tele-health,’ is possible where a telephone or computer is used to interact with the patient. We’ll need people who can ensure that health care information is electronically done in a secure fashion.”

Regardless of whether care is given in person or virtually, Hamilton states that health care is a people business and emphasis needs to be placed on care given with compassion, and he appreciates that Macomb Community College embraces that emphasis as it teaches its students the skills necessary for competent health care.

“We’re pleased to have Macomb Community College in our community,” Hamilton said.

Ensuring that the people filling those health care positions are trained properly is a major focus of the health care programs at Macomb. Both its degree and certification programs stress knowledgeable, competent skills that are built on a foundation of caring and good communication.

“Our programs emphasize thorough knowledge in the clinical aspect of health care, but we also mandate a foundation of caring,” said Brown. “We stress the importance of communication with patients and their families.”

Surgical tech takes charge of career by earning nursing degree

Melissa Arant knew in high school that she wanted to work in an operating room, but she just didn’t see herself behind the scalpel. During her first year at Macomb Community College, however, the Anchor Bay High School graduate made a timely discovery.

“I’ve always been intrigued by surgery, but I  didn’t know I  could get a job in surgery without becoming a surgeon,” says Arant. “I  was working as a nursing assistant and taking my prerequisite classes for nursing when my counselor told me about the Surgical Technology Program.”

Arant appreciated the detailed instruction and mentoring she received from Liz Ness, the program’s coordinator and lead faculty member. An internship at a hospital honed Arant’s skills even further. When she graduated in 2006, she was hired by Bon Secours (now Beaumont) Hospital in Grosse Pointe.

“The surg tech program at Macomb is exceptional, and Liz Ness is awesome,” says Arant, who lives in Chesterfield Township with her husband and two young daughters. “I was definitely prepared for the job.”

A surgical technologist is a scrubbed, gowned and gloved member of the surgical team, responsible for sterilizing, arranging and handing surgical instruments to the surgeon. Arant enjoyed the diversity and pace of the job, but after a few years began thinking about the next career move. That’s when she returned to Macomb to earn a nursing degree.

“I’m glad I didn’t go into nursing first because I  wouldn’t have gotten such hands-on experience in the operating room,” says Arant, now afternoon charge nurse in the surgical department at Beaumont–Grosse Pointe. “I’m responsible for making sure the surgical team has everything they need for the different types of operations. If it wasn’t for Liz and the surg tech program, I might not be here.”

Brian Tyrell has climbed many ladders in his lifetime. There were those he scaled as a firefighter, saving property and lives while risking his own. A ladder of a different sort took him from on-call firefighting to the top spot at a fire department in one of Macomb County’s fastest growing communities.

Pushing him up and over each and every rung were memories of his firefighter father, Bob Tyrell.

“I grew up watching my dad respond to calls and I’ve wanted to be in public service ever since. As soon as I  turned 19, I  joined (the Rochester Fire Department), and was lucky to

work alongside my dad for three years,” says Tyrell, now Washington Township’s fire chief. “I attended Macomb five to six years (after I began my) full-time paramedic firefighter career. It was instrumental in my career advancement.”

Tyrell earned an Associate of Applied Science Degree in Fire Science from Macomb Community College in 2007 and has been Washington Township’s fire chief since 2014. He started on-call, went to full-time paramedic firefighter and then served as fire marshal, responsible for developing that department’s first-ever fire prevention bureau.

“I had to draw from the knowledge gained at Macomb, specifically, the engineering principles behind fire protection systems,” says Tyrell, “and the science behind fire behavior and fire investigations.”

In addition to a commitment to public service rooted deeply in his childhood, another thread ties Tyrell’s personal life to his professional one. His oldest son graduated from Macomb’s Fire Science program and Fire and Paramedic academies and is now employed as a paramedic firefighter, while his youngest is pursuing a career as a firefighter/EMT. And in the department that Tyrell leads, Macomb alumni are the majority.

“Many take advantage of our tuition reimbursement program,” says the chief. “I do not think it is a coincidence that all of them choose Macomb’s Fire Science program.”

Three Generations. One Purpose.

Advancements in Public Service:

The demands on police, fire and emergency medical service (EMS) departments have changed dramatically over the years. In an emergency, you want to know that the person responding to your call for help has grown with these changes and can offer the most effective response possible. As a result, ongoing training is at the forefront at Macomb County police and fire departments.

“New technology is coming up every day,” said Macomb County Sheriff Anthony Wickersham. “From GPS to e-citations, everything is done on computer. These new enhancements make it easier for our officers to do their job. We see technology used on the training side daily, whether online training or scenario-based training.”

Change has also affected fire departments across the country requiring more of a focus on technology.

“Over the course of my career, the biggest change has been on the EMS side of the fire department,” said Harrison Township Fire Chief Michael Lopez. “Almost all of the full-time suburban fire departments require that their firefighters be paramedic trained. As a result, recruits need the added time of going to school and getting the paramedic training.”

Lopez estimates that between 60 to 80 percent of the work of a fire department is now EMS-focused, requiring a more thorough understanding of the newest medical technology and equipment as well as well-developed intrapersonal skills.

“For a firefighter today, you need people who have the intellectual skills to do the paramedic job, but you also need the physical ability to do the physical side of the job,” said Lopez.

There have been tremendous advances in technical training for all three professions, from changes in use-of-force protocols and fire rescue to ambulance medical procedures.

“The training is better now than it used to be,” said Mike Reaves, Advanced Police Training manager, Macomb Community College. Macomb’s Public Service Institute provides education and training to those who are entering the fields of law enforcement, fire service and emergency medical services, as well as ongoing professional development to working professionals.

“We stay current on all of the traditional techniques of public protection, but have also incorporated skill training in areas like verbal de-escalation skills and the latest technological advances,” said Reaves. “We stay up-to-date on emerging training trends through a variety of methods and incorporate those technological advances. We do that in the classroom and training centers with computer-aided training, simulators and other advances to give our recruits a better understanding of real-life scenarios and the best potential responses.”

Applying the latest technology has to offer in training for police, fire and EMS translates into public service professionals equipped to handle any situation, employing the best tools and choices available to them—and ultimately safer communities.

“Part of acquiring these skills is on-the-job training,” said Wickersham. “But we also have to have advanced training that is accredited and credible to make sure our officers out on the street are getting the appropriate training to be able to identify issues and know how to deal with them accordingly.”

How Technology is Changing Emergency Response

A couple argues in a motel room as a nervous caretaker unlocks the door for police to investigate. The woman grows increasingly agitated, flailing her arms and swearing at the man seated on the bed. From seemingly nowhere a butcher knife appears in her hand and in one quick movement she lunges at the officer in front of her.

All of this takes place in less than a minute, during which time the officer on the scene has to make a series of decisions, including whether or not to use force to subdue her and, if so, to what degree. A mistake on the officer’s part and the screen goes red.

This is the Multiple Interactive Learning Objectives (MILO) Range at Macomb Community College’s Criminal Justice Training Center, the most technologically advanced scenario training available to the law enforcement community in southeast Michigan.

“At the cadet level, everything coming at them is new,” says Ray Macksoud, director of Macomb’s Basic Police Academy. “This is about teaching them how to make the right decisions based on the facts

at hand. MILO gives us the ability to expose them to the way things happen in the streets before they encounter them the first time for real.”

The MILO Range, obtained with a $100,000 Perkins grant, consists of a 180-degree wraparound theater screen that can simulate multiple threats coming at an officer and/or bystanders from different locations, a scenario often encountered in real-life police work. The range includes surround-sound, skill builder exercises, hundreds of controllable scenarios as well as capabilities to add in-house videos, simulated fire arms range (an inexpensive alternative to live bullets) and a debriefing mode.

“The number one purpose of this exercise is to give them the ability to make good decisions, and we are able to give them instant feedback on their responses,” says Macksoud. “We expect that cadets will make mistakes—that’s why this training is so important.”

Starting a small business can be an intimidating process, but support from Macomb Community College is helping budding entrepreneurs in southeast Michigan find their footing.

The College’s Center for Innovation and Entre-preneurship (CIE) is a free community resource that’s creating growth opportunities by supporting all local entrepreneurs—Macomb students, alumni and local residents.

“Our goal is really to give people every resource they need to make their business idea become a reality,” said Stacey Frankovich, CIE director. “We want people to be inspired and motivated to explore and act upon their innovative ideas.”

Whether someone’s interest is a cutting-edge technology or as tried-and-true as starting a lawn cutting service, they can visit the CIE to receive

mentoring about how to develop a business plan, where to look for funding and how to avoid common pitfalls of the startup adventure.

For example, each year the Center hosts a “pitch competition” where Macomb students can present their business ideas Shark Tank-style to a panel of expert judges with a chance to win feedback and funding.

The Center also puts on an annual student business expo, which gives current Macomb students who already own and operate their own companies a chance to showcase themselves to the rest of the student body and the community.

“We’re challenging our students to become strong problem-solvers and critical thinkers,” Frankovich said, “whether they start a business or not.”

Entrepreneurship at Macomb: Creating Economic Opportunity Where It Counts

Ashlee’s class project, SignOn, is now used in ASL programs nationwide.

The Macomb Community College Innovation Fund was established to stimulate economic development by supporting innovative ideas. Ashlee Trempus is an example of the difference the fund has made. A Macomb alum, she found it challenging while studying to become an American Sign Language interpreter to fulfill the required hours of training with a deaf individual. As a class project, she developed SignOn, an online platform that allows ASL students the chance to converse one-on-one with a deaf individual anywhere in the world, who is paid a living wage for their time. Her business received its first $25,000 in funding from the Macomb Innovation Fund and is now being used in ASL programs nationwide.

The Innovation Fund has supported more than 30 local companies like that one, who have in turn provided engagement opportunities to nearly 500 Macomb students.

“We want people to be inspired and motivated to explore and act upon their innovative ideas.”

“I was thrilled and shocked that an

opportunity like this could happen to Regular Joe me.”

Claudia Nowicki, a first-year Macomb Community College student, earned an internship with Life Magnetics, a Detroit-based medical research startup that had recently received funding from the Macomb Innovation Fund. Nowicki’s work there, in which she uses a laser to study the human body’s building blocks, has amplified her studies at Macomb while padding her resume to transfer to Wayne State.

“Honestly, I never thought this could happen at a community college level,” Nowicki  said. “I was thrilled and shocked that an opportunity like this could happen to Regular Joe me.”

Counselor follows her own advice and finds job she loves

When Loverboy sang “Everybody’s working for the weekend,” in the early 1980s, remembers Brigit Dyer, the group hit upon a sentiment that still prevails today: Work to live. Dyer, who has counseled many college latecomers, however, suggests that with the right job “Live to work” can make one much happier.

“Many students find that when they are younger, the pull of the workforce and making money takes a higher priority than education,” says Dyer. “But, then, many of them hit a roadblock in that they can only go so far without a college degree.”

But it’s not only 30-somethings like Tim Masters, who returned to school after a few years in an unfulfilling job as a restaurant equipment installer (see Aerospace story to left), who hit that road block, but those who have carefully prepared for and spent a decade or two in a career that they thought would take them to retirement as well.

“I have seen people who have found that they have reached as far as they can go in their current career and so they need to change careers to reach their full potential,” says Dyer, who teaches sociology at Macomb Community College. “I tell them that the old saying is true: ‘Find a job you love and you will never work a day in your life.’”

Dyer knows from experience. With bachelor and master’s degrees in sociology and a background in counseling, she served as coordinator of retention at Mid-Michigan Community College and director of retention at Delta College, teaching sociology only part-time for several years. “I realized that what made me the most excited every day and what I was most passionate about was teaching. I decided that I needed to pursue that avenue and find a job teaching full time,” relates Dyer. “I saw that individuals with Ph.D.s were being hired over those with master’s degrees so I enrolled in Wayne State University’s doctoral program and will be finishing up my classwork next year. Getting a full-time faculty position at a community college or university is extremely competitive and I think the hiring committee at Macomb appreciated that I was working on the Ph.D. It was a factor in my being hired as a full-time sociology faculty member in 2016.”

For those considering changing careers, however, Dyer advises taking baby steps at first.

“Dip your toe in the water of a new career before you make a complete switch. Get a part-time job in the field you are considering or an internship or volunteer. Find out if the new field matches your interests and skill sets,” says Dyer. “Then, hiring committees can see that you have some experience in and knowledge of the field. And never talk about how you didn’t like your previous career. Rather, focus on what attracted you to the new one. And show passion; people like to see passion and determination.”

If career-changers are enrolling at Macomb Community College or are one of its alumni, she encourages a visit to its Career Services office to research the career they think they may want to pursue. And, she implores them to never give up.

“Be brave, you need to take calculated and informed risks,” advises Dyer. “You may not always succeed but failure means that you will find a different path—the one that is right for you.”

“I can’t hold the program in any higher regard.

It was life changing.”

“Find a job you love

and you will never work a

day in your life.”

Tim Masters was logging too many hours a week doing work he didn’t enjoy and remembering all too well his childhood dream of becoming an astronaut when he decided, at 30, to make a change. But Masters still never dreamed he’d get as close to NASA as he did last fall.

Masters was one of 300 community college students across the country accepted into the NASA Community College Aerospace

Scholars Program. After a five-week, interactive online course of study that covered NASA and the international space station, he and his fellow scholars spent four days in October at the George C. Marshall Space Flight Center in Alabama. They interacted

with NASA engineers, toured the facilities and worked on a team building a robotic land rover.

“We discovered a new appreciation for just how important testing is to design,” says Masters. “Nothing ever works right the first time.”

Before Michigan Works! brought him to Macomb, Masters installed restaurant equipment and begrudged every hour of the 60 or more he spent doing it each week. After earning a certificate in electric vehicle development technology from Macomb, he’s now a high-voltage battery pack test technician with Aerotek, on assignment at Ford’s Fuel Cell Center in Dearborn.

“I can’t hold the program in any higher regard. It was life changing,” says Masters, who is continuing on to earn an associate degree. “I almost certainly would be still working miserable jobs and I wouldn’t have gotten such enthusiastic instruction, which really stoked my interest in electronics.”

&Comedy Cocktails

Comedy & Cocktails, a fundraiser presented by the Macomb Community College Foundation on Sept. 15, attracted more than 300 attendees and raised in excess of $45,000 to benefit the college’s arts and cultural programming.

Presented by First State Bank, the event began with cocktails, hors d’oeuvres and the dedication of the Delia Rendon-

Martin Lobby of the Lorenzo Cultural Center in recognition of her generous contributions to

the college, including an endowed scholarship for Macomb culinary students and support for

both the Macomb Center and Lorenzo Cultural Center.

Rendon-Martin is an active local philan-thropist who, with her late husband, opened El Charro Restaurante Mexicano in Fraser, which has since expanded to four locations in the area.

Following dinner, the event continued in the Macomb Center where an additional

300 guests joined the gala participants and were treated to a performance of Forbidden

Broadway, a musical revue that parodies Broadway theater.

In the 2009–2010 season, Macomb’s former Executive Director of Cultural Affairs Christine Guarino brought in the Literature to Life adaptation of Khaled Hosseini’s The Kite Runner. The original intent was to help supplement the local school curriculum, as schools across the state faced budget cuts. The program would present significant works of literature, melding the theatre experience with language arts education.

The Page to Stage program has expanded to include everything from Shakespearean tragedies to children’s classics like this season’s Go, Dog! Go. These shows are performed by professionals and may include a question and answer session after each performance, bringing students in contact with nationally recognized groups like Kennedy Center, Dallas Children’s Theater, and ArtsPower National Touring Theatre.

EXHIBIT PRESENTED BY

February 28–May 5, 2018

Making Macomb: A Journey Through 200 Years

What We Carried: Fragments and Memories from Iraq and SyriaFrom the Arab American National MuseumOne of the largest recent groups of new residents to Macomb County comes from the Middle East. This traveling exhibit explores their stories.

Since 2003, more than four million Iraqis have left their homes and relocated in hopes of creating a better future for themselves and their families in a setting free of war and uncertainty. Approximately 140,000 of these refugees have immigrated to the United States.

To document their life-changing journey, renowned freelance photographer and author Jim Lommasson has created a project documenting what it means to leave everything behind. The carried objects and the intense personal stories behind them combine to illustrate the common threads that bind all of humanity: the love shared for family, friends and the places people call home.

All of the pieces in this exhibition will be presented in both English and Arabic.

• Scaled replica of the Gratiot Drive-In• Artifacts that belonged to General

Alexander Macomb and Lewis Cass• M37 Military Truck• 1950 F1 Pickup Truck • P51 Mustang Model
