THE MISSION
of the Utah College of
Applied Technology
(UCAT) is to meet the
needs of Utah’s
employers for
technically-skilled
workers and to promote
local and statewide
economic development
by providing market-
driven technical
education to both
secondary and adult
students.

Governor Herbert meets with UCAT Board ofTrustees at Tooele Applied Technology College.
High School: Building Career and Technical SkillsHigh school students particularly benefit from UCATprograms by being enrolled tuition-free and receivingcredit from their high school toward graduation. Theycan progress toward (and sometimes complete) a post-secondary UCAT certificate while in high school thatprepares them for employment and often additionalcollege education.
Local school board members serve as members of thecampus boards of directors. The UCAT Board ofTrustees and the Utah State Board of Education eachappoints one of its members to serve on the other’sboard. Campus presidents work closely with schooldistrict superintendents, and staff work with highschool counselors, students, and parents to help support their high school technical training goals.

Certificates: Preparation for Utah’s JobsUCAT’s eight campuses offer 290 accredited programcertificates preparing students for a variety of technicalfields. Certificate- seeking students represented 58% ofUCAT’s membership hour service (hours of trainingprovided) last year in occupational preparation pro-grams ranging from 30 to 2,000 hours. UCAT studentscompleted 5,918 program certificates. Coursework canbe generally summarized in the program areas listedon pages 8–9.
Program Standards and OutcomesPrograms offered by UCAT campuses are approvedunder rigorous standards established by the Board ofTrustees and by the Council on Occupational Education(COE), which accredits each campus. COE is a nationalaccreditation agency authorized by the United StatesDepartment of Education which specializes in careerand technical education institutions and programs.
Each program must directly accomplish UCAT’s mis-sion by meeting documented needs of Utah employersfor technically-skilled workers. It must have an activeemployer advisory committee (see page 12). Each pro-gram must also meet critical national standards eachyear set by COE for student completion, placement inrelated employment, and professional licensure whereapplicable.
Occupational Upgrades: Keeping Utah Employers CompetitiveAs the economy improves, more employed workersneed to upgrade their skills to keep themselves andtheir employers competitive as technologies and market conditions change. The largest number of stu-dents accessing UCAT (38% of headcount) enrolled incourses to upgrade skills in their current employment.94% of them completed their enrollment objective, and3,459 completed 60 or more hours of coursework inboard-approved, accredited certificate programs.

Certificates for Utah’s 66% by 2020 GoalCertificates are vital for many careers and for Utah’seconomy.
According to the Governor’s Education ExcellenceCommission, Utah is needing to triple the total number of people in the state with post-secondary certificates from the year 2011 to 2020 in order to meetprojected workforce demands. The Commission’s “66%by 2020” goal, with strong support from the Legislaturethis year in Senate Concurrent Resolution SCR-5, outlines the results that will be needed for 66% ofUtahns to have a post-secondary credential: 13% ofUtahns will need a certificate.
The Utah College of Applied Technology provides in-dustry-driven training and certificates, and is on pace tohelping Utah triple the number of certificates. UCATstudents earned 9,377 certificates in FY 2013, an increase of 12.8% from the 8,312 certificates earned inFY 2011. As needed additional resources are provided,UCAT is committed to a goal of 16,070 in 2020.

Industry-Responsive Employer CommitteesEvery certificate program in UCAT has an advisorycommittee representing employers in the campus re-gion that employ workers in the occupational field. Thecommittees ensure that desirable, relevant and currentpractices of the occupation are being taught. Many ofthe employers assist in providing equipment, securingexperienced instructors, providing practical work experience, and hiring students.

Triple T Scores With an Assist from Custom FitTriple T had a large project that involved a typeof welding they had never done before. Theycontacted the MATC Custom Fit program.After studying the needs, Custom Fit created a training program specific to the project. TripleT employees met in the evenings after work attheir Spanish Fork location, using Triple Tequipment for training. “The training was ex-cellent, as well as affordable,” said ownerBrad Tanner, “but most importantly, we wereable to complete our project and keep ourcustomers happy.”
UBATC’s Welding Commit-tee Works on Many Levels“Our advisory committeeset the direction for the newPipe Welding program, andis instrumental in helpingkeep the curriculum up-to-date and up to industrystandard,” said JeffTaniguchi, UBATC weldinginstructor. “In addition, thevolunteer committee mem-bers help prepare studentsfor welding competitionseach year.”
Last year the weldingcommittee also secured
$90,000 in equipment forthe welding program.
“The committee se-lected the pieces of equip-ment that would best trainand prepare students forthe real world,” Taniguchisaid. “If we aren’t preparingstudents for industry, we arein trouble. The advisorycommittee sets the bar.”
In addition to makingsure the welding program isalways on the cutting edge,the employers who serve onthe advisory committeeoften hire UBATC students.
MATC’s Practical NursingAdvisory CommitteeMembers of the PracticalNursing advisory committeeassist with clinical place-ment and give advice onbetter preparing studentsfor the workplace. Dr.Joseph Miner, executive di-rector of the Utah CountyHealth Department, pro-vides an educational seg-ment at each meeting,updating the Nursing de-partment on current healthissues and practices.
Committee members
recently advised instructorsthat students would be evenmore competitive in theworkplace if they were all I.V.certified. The Practical Nurs-ing department took thecommittee’s recommenda-tion and immediately imple-mented it into thecurri culum, resulting in allPN program graduatesbeing I.V. certified upongraduation. As a result,MATC students have a com-petitive advantage in theworkforce or further education.

A Recipe for Failure Becomes a
Story of Success Brittany Stillwell has faced adversity.With an addict mother and an ab-sentee father, her life was transient,which led to homelessness and fos-ter care until she settled with heraunt, who was a capa ble caregiverbut struggled with alcohol addic-tion. Often, Brittany was discour-aged from succeeding in schooland was told that by doing well shewas “acting like she was too goodfor her family.” In 2011, inspired bya close friend and with sheer deter-mination, Brittany became the firstperson in her family to graduatefrom high school. Unsure of what todo next, she enrolled at Dixie StateUniversity. While there, she heardabout the Medical Assisting pro-gram at DXATC and thought itwould be a good fit. She appliedand just completed the programwhere she was offered a permanentposition while completing her ex-ternship at Red Rock Pediatrics.
Brittany states, “I don’t lookat my childhood as a negative ex-perience, but as an important partof who I am today.”

Taking the Plunge Pays OffDenny Mulligan remembers his SWATC instructor sharing stories duringa high school elective class about all the career options available tothose with welding skills. Denny didn’t pay much attention—or so hethought. After high school graduation he moved from job to job, tryingto find a career that he could be excited about. But his mind kept goingback to that SWATC teacher who said that underwater welders are inhigh demand. After specialized schooling and certifications, Denny became an underwater welder so sought-after that he’s been sent onassignments around the world.

Finding Herself at
UBATC.Christina Harrisondidn’t know how shewas going to make itwith her six boys whenshe left an abusive rela-
tionship and filed for divorce. But she knewshe needed further education to support herfamily—and needed it fast. The single momdecided UBATC—with its flexible scheduleand ability to provide hands-on training—would be ideal.
She completed the Business Administrative Support program and recentlygraduated with her Accounting Techniciancertificate.

Her Workplace Relations classhelped her emotionally, she said, by buildingher self-esteem which was damaged by herdifficult past.
“UBATC helped me emotionally.Every time I finish something it feels like apositive voice saying, ‘Hey, you’re doingokay.’ And I didn’t have that,” she said. “Ifyou want to do better, you have to grow.School taught me to keep growing.”
