Education and workforce development systems have not kept pace with the workforce demands of the 21st century, and we all bear the costs of this failure… Basic training programs alone cannot bridge the skills gap. As a result, more than 3 million jobs continue to go unfilled despite high, persistent unemployment. This blog, updated multiple times a week, explores how partnerships between business and higher education can bridge this skills gap.
How Do We Get Students Ready For the Jobs of the Future?
This story is the second in a seven part editorial series exploring the balance between student learning and job skills. We’re asking leaders and thinkers in education and technology fields: Can America educate its way out of the skills gap? This series is brought to you by GOOD, with support from Apollo Group. Learn more about our efforts to bridge the skills gap at Coding for GOOD.
