Supply and Demand for Middle-Skill Occupations in Rural California in 2018-20. Study Snapshot. REL 2021-040
Regional Educational Laboratory West
This study snapshot presents the key findings from the full study on the alignment of middle-skill workforce supply and occupational demand across four rural regions in California to help stakeholders strengthen the economy in rural parts of the state. The four rural regions in the study are Central Valley and Mother Lode North, Central Valley and Mother Lode South, Northern Coastal, and Northern Inland. The study used the most recent federal data available to calculate descriptive statistics on projected job openings, projected job growth rate, wage ranges and living wage status, and middle-skill credentials (subbaccalaureate credentials such as associate degrees and certificates that are awarded by a postsecondary institution and aligned with a middle-skill occupation). [For the full report, see ED608883; for the appendixes, see ED608886.]
