Palomar College submitted the appropriate LMI from the COE. The COE does not recommend developing a *new* program for these occupations 1) entry-level wages are below the living wage and 2) there is an estimated oversupply in the region. However, because this is a program modification, the COE supports the modification because 1) employers require, at minimum, some college or certificate for these occupations and 2) demand is met by the community colleges.

I have resubmitted this application with a current LMI Report. The statistics are fine for program modification, just not starting a new program (we are doing a program modification, and just renumbering a course to de-crosslist it from our other Health programs).
