This reports describes the ways in which model programs created by the Northwest Center for Sustainable Resources (NCSR) are based upon employers' needs and recommendations.

Next, the report provides transcripts of NCSR focus group interviews conducted at Chemeketa Community College with representatives of four related industries.

Finally, the report includes charts regarding the partnerships between NCSR and the following community colleges: Feather River College; Central Oregon Community College; Chemeketa Community College; Grays Harbor College; Western Center; and Shasta College.
