Southwestern College submitted the appropriate LMI from the COE. The COE supports a program modification because 1) there is a supply gap; 2) there is a high number of annual job openings; and 3) entry-level wages are above the living wage for these occupations. The colleges should also note that employers typically require a bachelor's degree as the minimum educational requirement.
