The C3T Hawaii grant provides capacity building to the University of Hawaii Community Colleges to develop both short-term job-training programs and/or pathways into Associate Degree programs in the areas of Health Care, Energy and Agriculture.
These industries were selected as they align with Hawaii's economic development initiatives identified in Governor Abercrombie's "New Day Plan" and the Hawaii State Comprehensive Economic Development Strategies.
This alignment was critical in ensuring that the development of Hawaii's labor force was strategically positioned to address new economic opportunities that will improve the lives of all of Hawaii's residents.
