Workforce DevelopmentQ2 Highlights

• BSC Workforce Related Measures S2 Early career members – The Q2 actual of 17,039 early career members

exceeded the target of 16,804. I2 New courses and certificate programs in energy related sectors – We have

developed 2 new ASME licensed courses or certificate programs in energy related sectors YTD and the Q2 target was 3. The goal for the fiscal year is 5. Development of several energy-related courses is in progress and expected to be on plan by Q3.

I5 Students participating in ASME project oriented learning – Most of the activity in this area comes in Q4. The participation in the Student Design Competition at the Congress and the Latin America Human Powered Vehicle Competition has met the 5% growth target.

• Expand Pipeline– The Inspire Innovation workshop for pre-college teachers at the Vancouver

Congress attracted 75 participants, one of the largest turnouts in the history of this program

• Improve Retention– The Old Guard and ASME Foundation combined forces for a joint reception at the

ASME Congress. These units held separate receptions in the past.• Increase Competency

– Working on non-destructive examination and NQA Auditor personnel certification programs.

– An additional 49 e-books were added in Q2 to the list available for institutional/library subscribers, which now totals 95.

Workforce Development Portfolio: Purpose of the Management Framework

To answer key business questions about WFD Portfolio:

• What are the key drivers for growth in Workforce Development Index?

• How do expansion of pipeline, improvement in membership retention, and improvement in ASME constituents’ competency indices play contribute to improvement of the WFD Index?

– What is the revenue generated by the Training Portfolio in FY11?

– What is the community engagement (engagement in activities, participation in technical committees, number of codes committees, number of content providers, number of active sections, etc.) in FY11?

– What is product usage (number and type of products/services sold, number of participants in conferences, competitions, training courses, events, certifications etc., ) in FY11?

– What is the demographic information and repeat rate about the users of ASME Products portfolio in FY11?
