County, CCAP provides two years of tuition-free access to Virginia Western for students who meet program guidelines as long as funds are available. The Educational Foundation is committed to expanding the program to include the Counties of Botetourt, Craig and Roanoke through the College Access Campaign. The Educational Foundation also administers an annual and endowed scholarship program, awards faculty and staff innovation grants, and provides emergency and book funds to qualified students. Over the past year, the college has said good-bye to some familiar faces and welcomed many new friends. The campus is changing with the construction of a new Health and Science Professions building, and we are anticipating future student needs by undergoing a major renovation of the Student Life building. Most importantly, as you will see within the pages of the 2010-2011 Annual Report, our students and graduates prepare each day for what lies ahead. As the college expands and embraces its role as a leader in regional economic development, I invite you to join us by supporting our academic and access programs. Together, we will take this region where it needs to go. We’ll Take You There.
Virginia Western Community College
A decade at Virginia Western Community College means I’ve had the chance to watch the college grow, change and prepare to meet the needs of tomorrow. Now, more than ever, Virginia Western stands ready to educate and train the region’s workforce. A leader in technology and innovation, with a strong faculty and staff, and an Educational Foundation Board of Directors committed to supporting students, Virginia Western has a truly unique opportunity to impact the Roanoke Valley. Giving students the option to transfer to a four-year college or university, or go directly into the workforce, a degree or certificate from Virginia Western makes our students strong candidates wherever they go. While attending school, our students receive academic as well as financial support. Once they are ready to move on, Virginia Western offers strong guaranteed admission agreements with state colleges and universities and provides essential career services through the Hall Associates Career and Employment Assistance Services Center. As local businesses look for ways to train and certify employees, they look to Virginia Western’s Workforce Solutions as the best way to maintain compliance and excellence in the field. Our faculty and staff’s primary focus is on serving students, and we continually look for ways to improve service and student access. Virginia Western continues to grow and maintain friendships throughout the Roanoke Valley, and prides itself on being a good neighbor and community partner. The current initiative to expand the Community College Access Program (CCAP) across the region remains a major priority for the college and its Educational Foundation. Currently serving the cities of Roanoke and Salem and Franklin

Mechatronic Systems Assistant.
Students are instructed in the efficient operation of complex mechatronic systems and how to identify problems and troubleshoot. Virginia Western’s Workforce Program Coordinator James Smith and Automated Manufacturing faculty Dan Horine took part in an intensive three-week instructor certification program at the Educational Institution at Siemens in Berlin, Germany. “When I go out to conduct workforce training with local companies and their staff, they are always looking for more than just technical know-how,” says Smith, who provides on-site training for businesses through Virginia Western’s Workforce Solutions. “Industrial employers need employees who understand how mechanical, electrical, and information systems work together in automation to maximize efficiency and productivity.” The new certification program is a boon to local businesses that are seeking skilled workers. And the benefit of the new certificate to students is that they can show they possess industry-standard system skills that will make them even more competitive in today’s job market. Nakisha Evans (pictured right), Siemens’ International Partnerships and Marketing Manager for the SMCP Program, attended a ceremony at Virginia Western to officially make it the first

The goal of the new certification is to develop intelligent machine operators through engineering technicians who can independently adapt to and be effective in new working environments. The training encompasses a larger skill set beyond pure technical competence: social aspects, team working, networking skills and knowledge transfer skills also are important.

Franklin County joins CCAP Andrea Clingenpeel, a 2011 Franklin County High School graduate, came to Virginia Western as part of the first class of the Community College Access Program (CCAP) for Franklin County. She and 38 of her fellow high school classmates are attending Virginia Western tuition free. “The thing I like about CCAP is that it is about more than financial need. By requiring that you maintain a good grade point average at Virginia Western, it also encourages academic excellence,” Clingenpeel says. “Since I wasn’t 100 percent sure of my major, CCAP is helping me and my parents financially so I can get an associate’s degree and go onto a four-year school.” Administered by the Virginia Western Community College Educational Foundation, and available in Salem City, Roanoke City and Franklin County, CCAP impacted 152 students in 2010-2011 and 168 students in 2011-2012. “We truly appreciate the financial commitment members of our community are making to provide students in the service region access to higher education, and the chance to become strong assets to our area’s
workforce,” says President Robert H. Sandel of Virginia Western Community College. CCAP supports as many students as possible based on student need and available funds. The program was launched in 2008 with the pilot phase in Salem and expanded to Roanoke City in 2009. In fall 2011, graduates of Franklin County High School began participating in CCAP.
Salem City as well as Roanoke City and Roanoke City Public Schools, are CCAP sponsors for their respective localities. Other sponsors include the Roanoke Women’s Foundation, Advance Auto Parts, Appalachian Power, Carilion Clinic, MFA, Ingersoll-Rand and Trane in Roanoke City; and LewisGale Regional Health System, Richfield Retirement, and Quantum Medical in Salem City. The Educational Foundation is seeking
additional partners and funds to launch the program in the counties of Roanoke, Botetourt, and Craig. “Virginia Western strives to give every local high school graduate access to a college education,” Sandel says. “Additional support from members in every locality of our service region will help the college continue educating and training tomorrow’s workforce.”

Scholarship leads student to Virginia Tech Roberto Reyes graduated from Virginia Western in 2011, earning his Associate of Science in Business Administration. He got a taste for his future career through an internship he completed during his last semester. Working at 2nd Helpings, the cafe, gallery and shop affiliated with the Roanoke Rescue Mission, he gained needed experience and gave back to his community. Reyes, a Chicago native who moved to Virginia when he enlisted in the Navy for three years following high school, attended Norfolk State for one semester. He found Virginia Western when he decided to revisit his educational goals many years later. “There’s times in life when you think you know what you want, but something happens and you don’t get what you think you want,” he says. “But, it ends up working out.” At Virginia Western, Reyes says, he found an affordable education and developed excellent interpersonal relationships with professors.
G. Magruder Honorary Annual Scholarship helped him complete his

degree and graduate debt-free.
“It meant that I didn’t have to worry about getting as many hours at work,” he says. “I was able to focus a little more on school.” The internship at 2nd Helpings helped him gain the experience he needs to further pursue a career in business and finance. Virginia Western’s Hall Associates Career & Employment Assistance Center administers the internship program. According to Director Ruth Hendrick, the program is for students who have difficulty finding work due to lack of experience but do not have a way to gain the needed experience. The Career Center provides the internship program for those students who do not have an internship requirement in their program of study. The three-credit class allows students the opportunity to work 10to 15- hours a week in their career field. Over 50 area employers from a wide variety of business sectors have agreed to host interns. Reyes chose to complete his internship at 2nd Helpings, and assisted the cafe in conducting a statistical cost analysis. He completed the work before enrolling in Virginia Tech’s Bachelor of Science in Business Administration program fall 2011.
