Chancellor Byrne Emphasizes Workforce Development
CMAA membership turned out to hear the Two Year College story from Chancellor Bradley Byrne. He described the many programs instituted by the Two Year College system to provide training for the auto industry, high tech, bio tech, defense and other manufacturing industries. The ability of Alabama to step up with training has given the state a big advantage in recruiting new industry. He urged the energy industry to seek their assistance for workforce development.
Chancellor Byrne also discussed the ongoing Two Year College issues concerning employees who are also public officials. He promised to continue the effort to rid the system of improper employment practices.

Did You Know...?
Natural Gas is among the cleanest-burning fossil fuels in domestic production
- A large component of Natural Gas is a substance called Methane (CH4)
- Methane is a by-product of the geologic process that turns organic material into coal
- 13% of the land in the lower 48 United States has some sort of coal under it, and nearly all of this coal contains methane
- This gas, a hazard in underground coal mining, is normally wasted into the atmosphere.
- A process developed during the search for non-conventional fuels permits the extraction of this natural gas from the coal beds.
- This coalbed methane is produced in 7 counties in Alabama and accounts for more than a third of all natural gas produced in the state
- The Coalbed Methane Association of Alabama, a non-profit trade association made up of individuals and companies engaged in the development of coalbed methane resources in Alabama, has promoted the continued development of this valuable resource in the state for more than 21 years
