We have been using emsi labor market datasets and the ‘emsi Analyst’ tool to generate regional economic reports for our regional partners. We will be generating a set of five reports as a part of the KOIN initiative. The aim of these reports is to give our regional partners an overview of the region and aid them in decision making.
Part I of the Regional Economic Report provided an overview of the region. The report includes regional demographics, GRP, import/exports, jobs, employers, growing/declining occupations and industries, earnings, regional knowledge and skills. Part II of the report describes in more detail the region’s Industry, including major industrial clusters, shift share, jobs and wages. Part III will describe the regional occupations in more details including data about jobs, education and wages. Part IV of the report will describe in detail the educational programs in the region including regional completions, openings, jobs and median wage. The final report will be a summarization of all the parts and additional information and/or case studies.
This is the second of the series of the five report for the North Central Kansas region.

Kansas North Central Region Report – Part I
The final project report for the ‘Renewable Energy/Clean Technology Supply Chain Pre‑Assessment Program’is now available online. This project was undertaken to assist the south central Kansas region in developing a better understanding of the interest, capabilities and capacity of regional manufacturing companies in terms of their readiness to pursue renewable energy markets (wind, solar and biomass). The purpose of the study was to provide business development pre-assessments to manufacturing companies seeking to 1) increase their connectedness to emerging renewable energy markets, 2) improve their operations and 3) increase their competitive advantage.
Renewable Energy-Clean Technology Supply Chain Pre Assessment Program Final Project Report
The NADO Research Foundation released two new reports that highlight the efforts of work being done through the Kansas Opportunity Innovation Network (KOIN).
The story of KOIN is presented in two parts, a case study overview and more detailed description of steps performed and visualizations created to better understand regional economic development. These reports were produced in partnership with the EDA Know Your Region project.

Beginning in 2007 as a component of the Advanced Manufacturing Institute’s (AMI) United States Economic Development Administration (US EDA) University Center program, AMI collaborated with North Central Regional Planning Commission (NCRPC) to pilot a regional industry cluster analysis. The geographic area for the project includes 19 counties in north central Kansas. For more information about the project please visit the project website at http://ami.ncrpc.org/
