the workforce will come from anassociate’s degree,” Von Waldsaid.
Among MTI students lastyear, 35 percent of the studentbody had some sort of collegedegree when they came to theinstitution. Of those, 17 percenthad a bachelor’s degree and 2percent had a master’s degree.
“Why would anybody whohad a master’s degree or a bach-elor’s degree come back and getan associate’s degree?” Von Waldasked. “Because we teach themskills. It’s the specific skills thatare being required in our econo-my today. It’s the only way theUnited States and South Dakotaare going to keep competitive.”
Workers better not shy awayfrom math and science educa-tion, he added.
“If you don’t like science andmath, suck it up,” Von Wald said.“Just get in there and do it,because that is what is requiredfor you to get good jobs in thefuture.”
During the manufacturinginstitute, which is in its third
year at RTEC, students learnabout safety in the workplace,tour local manufacturing plantsand work on projects for thecommunity. One item built thisyear was a raffle machine forBeadle Elementary School.
“That’s what we try to dohere: Give these guys a groundfloor look at manufacturing fromprototyping to production toshowing up to work on time,”said Josh Svatos, general manag-er of RTEC. “Manufacturing isnot the dark, dirty, dingy jobsthat were stereotyped in yearspast. I think these guys canattest to that.”
The manufacturing academyis supported by a coalition ofmanufacturing businesses, edu-cational institutions and eventhe South Dakota NationalGuard.
First Dakota National Bankwas recognized for its largedonation to the program.
“The $6,000 that we investedin the academy this year and inprevious years is used tostrengthen our community,” saidMarc Mooney of First Dakota.“We at the bank believe that thisinvestment is an investment inYankton’s future. You guys aregoing to come back and be partof the manufacturing sector.”
Marie Steckelberg of the
Yankton Rural Area HealthEducation Center oversaw theCNA Institute. She noted thatSouth Dakota will need 11,000additional health care workersby 2016.
“That’s one of the primaryreasons we are having thisCertified Nursing AssistantInstitute — so we can provide anopportunity for students to learnabout being a CNA and otherhealth care professions.”
Students visited an emer-gency room, experiencedtelemedicine and were exposedto many other elements ofhealth care.
“CNAs play a very critical rolein the care of the resident,”Steckelberg said. “Never forgetthat what you do is very impor-tant in the care for the elderlyand sick. I thank you from thebottom of my heart for choosingthis career. If you choose to pur-sue another career in healthcare, never forget what youlearned as a CNA.”
Among the supporters of theCNA Institute are the YanktonRural Area Health EducationCenter, the South DakotaHealthcare WorkforcePartnership Fund, Mount MartyCollege, Southeast Job Link andRTEC.
