Hill Subject: E-POLL REQUEST: Approve Chairman Hill to sign the Tribal Letter of Support – EDA Good Jobs Challenge Grant. E-POLL REQUEST Summary: GLITC reached out to Oneida Nation, as they are working with WEDC Deputy Secretary Public Packet 106 of 144 Sam Rikkers and Tia Torhorst from genera8tor Skills Accelerator on an US Dept. of Commerce EDA Grant and are asking tribes for a letter of support for this application. Our office did reach out to CIO, Dr. Shane Archiquette regarding this request and below is his response: In reviewing the Gener8tor Skills Accelerator program and the Good Jobs Challenge Grant, the programs would benefit the Oneida Nation significantly in being able to find skilled personnel to take on the open positions that are required for MIS/DTS department as well as future positions that require Digital skills and capabilities to function in other departments. The findings within the Employer outreach email – Gener8tor indicate the ‘Digital Divide’ which consists of identifying the foundational skills required to function within increasing number of open positions, this is compounded by the high number of individuals resigning from technology focused jobs to pursue different careers which leaves Oneida with more positions going unfilled. The MIS/DTS department would fully support working with this program and helping to facilitate the grant request to assist in finding people that will be upskilled, reskilled, or achieve a new skill to be functionally capable of working with Digital Technologies. For the Letter of Support – EDA Good Jobs Challenge, it is estimated that we have about 2540 open positions that could be filled by someone in the Skills Accelerator and we could estimate hiring 250 to 500+ roles between 2022 and 2027 for MIS/DTS as well as other departments which will have increasing Digital Technology adoption and skills requirements by 2027. Yaw^ko Dr. Shane C. Archiquette Chief Information Officer Digital Technology Services (MIS) Justification for E-Poll: The deadline to submit a letter of support was 2/4, but an extension was granted to this week, as they have not received all letters of support they were seeking. Requested Action: Approve Chairman Hill to sign the Tribal Letter of Support – EDA Good Jobs Challenge Grant. Deadline for response: Responses are due no later than 4:30 p.m., Tuesday, February 15, 2022. Voting: 1. Use the voting button above, if available; OR 2. Reply with “Support” or “Oppose”.

Submission: Authorized Sponsor: Tehassi Hill, Chairman Primary Requestor: Danelle Wilson, Executive Assistant Revised: 11/15/2021 Page 2 of 2 Public Packet 110 of 144 February 14, 2022 Alejandra Castillo, Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Economic Development U.S. Economic Development Administration 1401 Constitution Avenue, NW Suite 71014 Washington, DC 20230 Dear Assistant Secretary Castillo: On behalf of the Oneida Nation, I am writing in full support of the State of Wisconsin’s application for the U.S. Economic Development Administration’s 2021 Good Jobs Challenge grant. Our Nation is a Title IV and V Self-Governance Tribe located in Northeast Wisconsin and serves a tribal population of approximately 17,308 members. The Oneida Nation has a $750 million annual economic impact in our region and is one of the largest employers in Brown and Outagamie Counties, with approximately half of our employee base being non-Oneida employees from neighboring communities. We plan to support every component to help leverage this grant for not only our unique workforce needs but also to create a more resilient and diversified economic recovery. Our Tribe currently has approximately 25-40 open positions that could be filled by someone recently skilled in the digital and workplace skills which the Skills Accelerator could train on in the next five years. While we don’t know exactly what jobs we will need five years from now, we know that the foundational digital roles in securing and supporting our customers and clients, advancing and protecting our IT infrastructure, and analyzing our work will only grow. We could estimate hiring 250 to 500+ digital roles over the course of the grant - late 2022 to early 2027 - and hope to hire as many Skills Accelerator graduates as possible. Two critical agencies that drive the economic prosperity of our state - Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation and Department of Workforce Development - are coming together in a collaborative effort to support innovation in human capital. Wisconsin has the lowest unemployment rate in the state’s 174-year history which comes amid a worker shortage stemming from the pandemic that continues to impact businesses across the state. Employers throughout our region are struggling to find candidates to fill open positions while navigating the “great reshuffle” along with the shifting expectations of the workforce. Public Packet 111 of 144 The state gained 5,300 private-sector jobs in December 2021. In addition, the number of people counted as unemployed in Wisconsin - 86,200 - also hit a record low. When speaking with a crowd in Milwaukee, Charles Evans, president and CEO of the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago, commented on jobs and unemployment when asked his predictions for the upcoming year. He reflected that the low unemployment rate might be reflective of people not coming enough into the labor force and that there are opportunities for people who want jobs. Furthermore, digital skills are needed in virtually every role in every organization, yet there are limited programs working towards reducing the digital workplace chasm that was growing before the pandemic and has exponentially increased in the last two years. According to the “State’s Digital Equity Scorecards”, a publication issued by the National Digital Inclusion Association, in partnership with National Skills Coalition and Microsoft, nearly 33% of our unemployed individuals in Wisconsin lacked the foundational digital skills to compete for over 138,000 open positions (July 2021). Closing this skills gap is an important aspect of the continued economic growth in our region and our state and this grant serves as an integral role in facilitating an equitable training platform to help more of our residents secure good jobs today and be digitally prepared for careers of tomorrow. The three component parts of this proposal addresses several workforce issues in our region, including not having enough workers for roles, equity gaps in accessing the basic digital tools needed for employment and living a full life, and tools for how to navigate changes in the workplace exacerbated by the pandemic. We are excited to watch our region’s employers and residents innovate and engage in how our workplaces and communities will grow in the future. We are ready to participate in discussions about supporting our industry and workers to push Wisconsin to the forefront of disrupting and innovating in how our talent and our economy grow with these changes. We look forward to working with the State to support the activities laid forth in this proposal and watch our region’s employers and residents innovate and engage in how our workplaces and communities will grow in the future. On behalf of the Oneida Nation, I ask for your full support of the State of Wisconsin’s application.

Public Packet 113 of 144 The State of Wisconsin is applying for a federal grant through the Department of Commerce called the Good Jobs Challenge. We are seeking a letter of support from your organization by February 4. The grant will have three components valuable to businesses across the state: ● ● ● Skills Accelerator - rapid workforce training program for under and unemployed residents (with a focus on historically marginalized) in the state that helps place them in a job. Just this morning the Green Bay Gazette published an article about this work, see attachment. Employer Innovation and Learning Network - a peer-to-peer affinity network for employer partner’s key leaders like Chief Information Officers (CIOs) and Chief Human Resource Officers (CHROs). Future of Work Accelerator - creation of recruitment and worker retention tools for employers and workers for next generation work Why? Wisconsin needs to be a national leader for job quality and matching workers to the highest demand jobs to drive innovation and economic growth. We want to ensure Wisconsinites and our employers are ready for the explosive growth in digital skills that workplaces require for successful economic growth now and in the future. The number of skills required for a single job is increasing by 10% year over year, and over 30% of the skills needed three years ago will soon be irrelevant, according to Gartner TalentNeuron. Digital skills are needed in virtually every role in every organization, yet there are limited programs working towards reducing the digital workplace chasm that was growing before the pandemic and has exponentially increased in the last two years. According to the “State’s Digital Equity Scorecards”, a publication issued by the National Digital Inclusion Association, in partnership with National Skills Coalition and Microsoft, nearly 33% of our unemployed individuals in Wisconsin lacked the foundational digital skills to compete for over 138,000 open positions (July, 2021). Closing this skills gap is an important aspect of the continued economic growth in our region and our state and this grant serves as an integral role in facilitating an equitable training platform to help more of our residents secure good jobs today and be digitally prepared for careers of tomorrow. What is in it for my business? You will be at the table to help craft the training strategy. You will have first access to skills accelerator graduates to fill your talent pipeline. The graduates will take a digital skills training program in addition to workforce readiness programming such as skills for inclusive conversations, how to manage feeling overwhelmed and critical thinking. Digital skills curriculum will be based on regional and state-wide employer needs and tailored for entry-level roles such as sales, customer service, data analyst, IT help desk and cybersecurity. While the type of roles will vary, they will all be grounded digital skills. Most roles will funnel into pre-apprenticeship or apprenticeship pathways. Public Packet 114 of 144 gener8tor Skills Accelerator gener8tor Skills Accelerator is a virtual, on-demand program for people looking for jobs in high-demand roles in their communities founded in partnership with Microsoft and New North in late summer 2020 in response to unprecedented pandemic related unemployment. The program has scaled to 14 communities across the county - both urban and rural - to continue the learnings in how to best serve communities. The Skills Accelerator graduates build their confidence alongside their technical knowledge in small cohort-based groups where they receive one-on-one support to achieve their goals. Participants earn LinkedIn Learning certificates and, in certain programs, have access to reduced fee exams to secure industry-recognized certifications. All learning is self-paced to fit any schedule and takes approximately 15 hours per week. Intended to support under and unemployed individuals gain meaningful employment in a variety of sectors (egs technology, insurance, finance and professional services) in roles in professional technical and administrative services. gener8tor and our graduates share a goal - graduates getting good jobs iin diverse, professional workplaces where the skills they gain from the accelerator can be applied. Roles might be working in their community or in a remote role working for a company anywhere in the country. This skills accelerator has advanced individuals' wages through promotion or by securing a new job in both “blue” and “white collar” jobs. Approximately one-third of the graduates share their new salary with us, on average it is $47,382. How does the Skills Accelerator work? gener8tor’s recruiting team work on all levels of a community from grasstop to grassroot to share the opportunity. We provide all tools necessary for organizations and individuals to be the best ambassador they can be for the program - social-ready graphics, template email language, flyers for places with in-person visibility. Additionally, by leveraging gener8tor’s expertise in digital customer acquisition, we also find individuals who are not engaged with the traditional workforce safety net system. We have found our most successful graduates have given up on “the system” helping them for a variety of reasons. After filling out a simple on-line application, gener8tor staff reach out to the applicant to talk more about the program. After this discussion to determine shared alignment about the program and applicant’s goals and agreement on the commitment required for applicants we accept program participants. Under and unemployed and those who identify as historically marginalized Public Packet 115 of 144 (egs. women, people of color, formerly incarcerated/justice involved) are prioritized with the goal of having a cohort of 35-40 individuals. The programs last between 5-10 weeks, driven by the technical curriculum’s length. Historically, the curriculum has been from Microsoft’s Global Skilling Initiative’s ten most in-demand careers from data on LinkedIn job postings (see below for full list). Wisconsin’s Good Jobs Challenge’s application will utilize these ten career paths but also other LinkedIn curriculum to expand options. This will allow for regional needs but also as job and skill demands change. An example of a program outside of the ten but very in demand is cybersecurity training. The ten technical learning paths draw from Microsoft, LinkedIn and GitHub. Additional programming, also curated from LinkedIn, rounds out participants' critical employability, communication and interpersonal skills. Technical curriculum will be selected in partnership with community leaders and ambassadors, taking into consideration transferable skills and goals of participants and local economic hiring needs. Data from multiple sources will be used to guide the curriculum discussion. Frequently used curriculums to date are Customer Service and Sales, IT Help Desk, Network Administrator and Project Management. A distinguishing component of this Skills Accelerator is that the program is self-paced and fully virtual. This allows participants who have family caregiving responsibilities or are employed with unpredictable schedules to continue working while completing the program. If access to a computer or internet is an issue we work with individuals on a case-by-case basis to help determine a solution. That may be providing a refurbished computer and hotspot or working with a local partner that has a computer lab if, for example, focused and quiet time in their house is the issue vs. a computer. Another unique component of gener8tor Upskilling is how community is built into the program. Participants learn alongside each other and keep each other accountable. All participants are assigned a “Career Coach” and a “Buddy or Pod.” The “Career Coach” is a gener8tor employee who can assist with answering any questions, helping with needs that may arise such as trouble completing a course and emotionally supporting the participants in ways they may not be able to find with friends or family members. Program “Buddies” are fellow cohort members. They exchange contact information for the purposes of holding each other accountable for success and providing peer support as needed. Concurrently with the digital skills learning, participants engage in job coaching services crafting or refreshing their resume, LinkedIn profile and cover letters and participating in mock interviews. Additionally, weekly “Lunch & Learns” allow participants to log into a live Microsoft Teams meeting to learn from and engage with workforce and technical experts. Topics include things participants may need for their job search like Optimized Job Search Strategies, How to Find a Job on LinkedIn, Interview Best Practices or how to enhance their technical learning to complement their LinkedIn learnings. Public Packet 116 of 144 The last week of programming, participants are invited to interview with companies hiring for roles they have just gained digital skills in. Data shows that 40% of job seekers are hired at companies where they have a connection. gener8tor provides that network and connection. At gener8tor, our goal is to be as responsive as possible to the local community’s needs. In this program that is both for employer needs but career interests and aspirations for the individual. Employer Hiring Network Our entrepreneurial, corporate and venture capital work in other parts of our company instantly created an opportunity to grow our hiring network through the over 3,357 corporate connections and 788 alumni companies we regularly work with. Consequently, many of these corporations and companies are actively engaged with and hiring gener8tor Skilling Accelerator graduates. Our dedicated employer network that we regularly work with for their hiring needs is currently 368 companies across a variety of industries. Locally, we have been engaging with Wisconsin employers since the NE WI pilot started in 2020. There will be additional and intensive employer outreach in advance of the grant application for committed engagement with the graduates. Employer engagement will be a priority through the entire life of the program as sustainability includes employer support in the future but also because success is dependent on their engagement in our success. In addition, gener8tor is a curated partner to supply candidates to Microsoft Career Connect. Career Connect is a service that will help place job seekers skilled by Microsoft’s nonprofit and learning partners in tech-enabled jobs in the Microsoft supplier and partner network. An example of the benefits of the gener8tor network can be found in our relationship with our startups. One of those, EatStreet, the Madison-based online meal delivery service company, participated in the gener8tor flagship accelerator in 2012. Since then and with the support of gener8tor, EatStreet grew exponentially. They now have over 3,000 full-time employees and are actively hiring. EatStreet has been dedicated to employing gener8tor Skilling Accelerator graduates by providing entry-level positions with the opportunity for upward mobility within the company. Rachelle Katchenago, a graduate of the gener8tor Skilling Accelerator and NE WI resident, pursued the customer service and sales learning path. Within several months of graduating from gener8tor Skills Accelerator Rachelle was hired for a full-time position at EatStreet. Rachelle has shared her elation over making more money than she ever has before and how without the Skills Accelerator she never would have gotten this job. In the customer service department at EatStreet, Rachelle has learned new skills like using Salesforce software. She now has taken on new duties as an “implementation specialist,” helping restaurants to adopt and use the company’s online service. At EatStreet, workers move from customer service up to sales or data analyst roles, presenting a clear path for wage growth. Rachelle’s exceptional story was highlighted in Good Morning America, in the New York Times and by Microsoft in one of their “Features” articles. Public Packet 117 of 144 Goals The goal is to have 70% of our graduates hired or promoted into full-time, quality employment within three months. Our definition of full-time, quality employment means that an individual works somewhere between 32-40 hours per week, 50 weeks a year and receives benefits such as healthcare and makes a wage aligned with regional/national averages. Graduates are supported in their job search until they request not to be. If a graduate is placed we continue to check in every six months in case circumstances change and they need to re-engage our support or if they would like to navigate additional skilling. gener8tor currently also surveys enrolling participants to determine how they view their current ability to secure employment as a baseline. After graduation, we ask the same questions to assess how differently they feel prepared. We also include Net Promoter Score (NPS) survey questions to assess metrics about if they would recommend the program to a friend or family member - a gold standard of customer satisfaction. gener8tor staffing model Each regional program has three people hired dedicated to that program. The Program Manager and two career coaches will support 100 graduates through the program annually. Additionally, overarching staff support each region for recruiting individuals and recruiting and supporting hiring partners. The Wisconsin Good Jobs Challenge will also layer additional support to ensure our state-wide strategy, data collection and wraparound service support for the skillers. Community-driven gener8tor’s mission is to help communities invest in their best and brightest. We work closely with the community to assess what jobs and skills workers are looking to gain while also learning from employers about the skills and qualifications they would like to see when hiring new employees. The flexibility of the Accelerator allows us to focus our curriculum to best fit the needs of the community.

Narrative Report Business Overview 1st Quarter FY22 – October, November & December Overall, the 1st quarter saw many successes with favorable weather in the month of October and the addition of indoor golf simulators in November. We have started to see the return of corporate events as we had several small holiday parties booked in the month of December and are starting to get more inquiries. Due to strong golf numbers into early November and the marketing of Annual Passes and Fringe Benefit Cards, Net Operating Income (NOI) exceeded budget by $46,283. November’s Annual Pass promotion drove higher than budgeted revenues as they exceeded budget by over $49K. Warm temperatures in November and December extended the golf season longer than expected. • • • • Overall revenues exceeded budget by 14% or $79,699 and exceeded PY by $135,193 Total payroll exceeded budget by 5% due to wage increases at the beginning of the fiscal year Operating expenses exceeded budget by 7%, mostly due to the timing of ordering supplies due to supply chain issues. Q1 Net Operating Income is at a savings of $46,283 vs budget. Personnel Update: • • General and Administrative o Holly Williams – General Manager o Kathleen Kaminski – Controller Course & Grounds o Steve Archibald – Golf Course Superintendent o Pete Nowak – Assistant Golf Course Superintendent o Ed Brusky – Golf Course Fleet Mechanic Public Packet • • • • 143 of 144 Golf o Travis Relyea – Head Golf Professional o Nate Kroll – Assistant Golf Professional Food and Beverage o Joy Lundberg – Sr. Food & Beverage Manager o Jocelyn Church – Sr. Food & Beverage Manager Clubhouse Maintenance o Mike Gottfried – Clubhouse Supervisor Sales and Marketing o Director, Sales & Marketing – Chelsea Kocken o Event Coordinator – Tammy Hardwick o Event Coordinator – Sieeria Vieaux Key Performance Highlights Q1: • • • • • • Golf ADR surpassed budget by $4/round and LY by $5/round. Golf rounds were only down slightly compared to LY, but revenue was up by 15% due to increased public daily fee play and increased rounds on the Legends course. Rounds on the Legends Course were 369 rounds compared to LY. Paid rounds were up 2% and junior rounds were up 4.5% compared to LY. Green Fee and Cart Fee together surpassed budget by over $30K and the Range exceeded budget by over $3.7K. Annual Pass and Fringe Benefit Cards brought in $178263 during the months of November and December, which is $49K above budget. (41) External events have been booked for the 2021 Fiscal Year including Weddings, Social and Corporate Key Performance Issues Q1: • • Staffing has been the largest challenge through the first quarter and we predict it will continue through Q2 and beyond. It is more difficult to find staff, but we have also adjusted staff wages at the beginning of the fiscal year to be more competitive in the marketplace. Supply chain is the second largest challenge as it continues to affect all areas of the business. The course and grounds department has been ordering maintenance parts early to make sure the supplies are available for off-season maintenance, so timing is off on how these expenses are hitting the budget. Prices are also higher for supplies, equipment, food, beverage, and golf shop orders. Key Marketing Actions to Drive Performance Q1: • Annual Pass and Fringe Card sales were even stronger this year than the record-breaking previous year. These sales are currently 24% or $43K ahead of budget and 27% or $49K ahead of LY. Due to this large volume of sales in Q1, we do expect that sales in Q2 will fall behind budget and LY.
