In line with predictions made in previous San Joaquin Valley Business Forecasts, total employment growth in the San Joaquin Valley, following years of gradual expansion, appears to be hovering near peak levels. That represents a slowdown in growth that began in 2016 and continued into 2018. While a decline in total employment is not likely to begin soon, there is evidence pointing to this slowdown in almost all categories of employment.

Stanislaus State has received a $161,000 grant from the Central California Alliance for Health, which it will use to purchase six human simulators for realistic and scenario-based training for students in its family nurse practitioner master’s program.
