Adair Learning Center Workforce grant application not among finalists Work Ready Skills Advisory Committee announces 39 finalists. Adair County's application for funding from the Work Ready Skills Advisory Committee's 39 finalists, announced today, failed to make the first round cut, but several CM 7 county area applications are on the list, including those from Lindsey Wilson College (for a Louisville campus) for $549,000; Casey County Schools for $8,500,000; Green County Schools for $3,493,000; and Russell County Board of Education, for $12,291,000.00. The grant request from Adair County was for slightly over $4.5 million for a new Community Learning/Central office building. Grant applicants who did not make the finalists list today have been encouraged to re-submit applications for the next funding cycle. Proposals totaling over $192M in requests still under consideration for funding. Click on headline for list of finalists, map of finalists locations By Woody Maglinger News from the Education & Workforce Development Cabinet FRANKFORT, KY (23 Nov 2016) - The Work Ready Skills Advisory Committee, formed to review and select project proposals for the Commonwealth's new $100 million workforce bond program, met last Friday and narrowed the list of potential recipients of first-round funding to 39 proposals totaling more than $192 million. Eighty-three full applications, totaling more than $455 million in requests, were under consideration last week. Announced by Governor Matt Bevin and Education and Workforce Development Cabinet Secretary Hal Heiner in July, the Kentucky Work Ready Skills Initiative is aimed at developing a highly trained, modernized workforce to meet the needs of employers and promote sustainable incomes for Kentuckians. The committee plans to award up to $65 million during this year's initial funding round and to reserve at least $35 million for a second application cycle in 2017. Individual project funding requests range from $38,000 - $28 million. Proposals come from all 10 state workforce areas and address a wide array of key industry sectors, including manufacturing, healthcare, technology, transportation, and construction/trades. The 10-member Work Ready Skills Advisory Committee has also scheduled meetings for December 14 and 15, 2016 where they plan to conduct interviews with select finalists for whom they would like additional information. Education and Workforce Development Cabinet staff will also conduct site visits for projects requesting less than $1 million for building renovations and/or equipment purchases. The committee's goal is to make first-round funding announcements before the end of the year. All applicants not advancing in this round are encouraged to submit a proposal during the next funding cycle (details available in mid-December). This story was posted on 2016-11-23 10:44:58
