Hanover and Pender Counties. All colleges were notified of the planning process for this program. The proposed program was approved by the Board of Trustees at Cape Fear Community College on January 29, 2015. Minutes from this Board meeting were attached to the program application. The President and the Board of Trustees of Cape Fear Community College have certified the following:

• The proposed program will enhance the workforce of North Carolina, will provide

educational and training opportunities consistent with the mission of the college, and will not duplicate the opportunities currently offered.

• They have assessed the need for the proposed program and the resources required to maintain a viable program and certify that the college can operate the proposed program efficiently and effectively within the resources available to the college.

• The college will complete a program accountability report including student success measures, enrollment trends, completion rates, and employment data three years after implementation of the program.

II. Program Rationale

Cape Fear Community College indicates the following:

• It is anticipated that nationally there will be a need for 9,400 additional baking professionals between 2012 and 2022 – an increase of 6% during that period (U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics).

• According to statistics provided by the North Carolina Department of Commerce, it is anticipated that the state will require 7,160 additional culinary and baking professionals between 2010 and 2020 – an increase of 9.9% during that period.

• A review of the Wilmington, NC economy data supplied by the U. S. Bureau of Labor Statistics revealed that the leisure and hospitality industry was the fastest growing areas of the local economy.

SBCC 05/15/2015

Cleveland Community College

Computed Tomography & Magnetic Resonance Imaging Technology (Diploma) (D45200) I. Program Planning

Cleveland Community College is seeking approval for the Computed Tomography & Magnetic Resonance Imaging Technology (Diploma) (D45200) program to begin Fall 2015. The planning area is defined as the college’s service area of Cleveland County. All colleges were notified of the planning process for this program.

The proposed program was approved by the Board of Trustees at Cleveland Community College on November 11, 2014. Minutes from this Board meeting were attached to the program

application. The President and the Board of Trustees of Cleveland Community College have certified the following:

• The proposed program will enhance the workforce of North Carolina, will provide educational and training opportunities consistent with the mission of the college, and will not duplicate the opportunities currently offered.

Cleveland Community College indicates the following:

• Cleveland Community College currently offers the Radiography program.

Individuals entering the Computed Tomography & Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Technology (CT/MRI) diploma program must be registered or registry- eligible radiologic technologist, radiation therapist, or nuclear medicine technologist. Technologists with more than one certification have a competitive edge in the job market.

• Effective January 1, 2016, the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists (ARRT) will require applicants for post-secondary certifications to show proof of a minimum of sixteen hours of structured education in CT and/or MRI for students to sit for the registry exam.

• Cleveland Community College has been conducting a series of courses in CT & MRI through continuing education since summer 2013. Thirty-two students have enrolled in these classes from summer 2013 through fall 2014. Of the thirty-two students, nine have completed all requirements and three have passed the CT exam for ARRT. It is faculty’s belief that the additional on-line courses and the increased time in clinical as required in the curriculum program will serve to enhance both the CT and MRI components and encourage more students to complete the courses and take the registry exam.

All colleges were notified of the planning process for this program.

The proposed program was approved by the Board of Trustees at COA on December 8, 2014. Minutes from this Board meeting were attached to the program application. The President and the Board of Trustees of COA have certified the following:

• The proposed program will enhance the workforce of North Carolina, will provide educational and training opportunities consistent with the mission of the college, and will not duplicate the opportunities currently offered.

College of The Albemarle indicated the following:

• The North Carolina Department of Commerce Analysis Division projected 12.5% growth for Drafter positions in the Northeastern Region for 2010-2020.

• According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics for 2012-22, CAD design positions are expected to increase up to 7% with an average annual income of approximately $49,630.
