Early Childhood Education
A world-class education system is critical to a world-class workforce. We explore early childhood education as a two-generation issue: the entry point to readiness and a key to strengthening the current workforce. We enable business to lead the way towards change, using the strength of their voice and impact in the community to partner with advocates on shared solutions. You may have heard of:
- Our report, the Workforce of Today, Workforce of Tomorrow
- Our case studies of those who are leading the way
- The Business Case for Early Childhood Education
Connecting K-12 to Careers
Today’s K–12 education system is complex, and that complexity often leads to students underprepared for the career ahead of them. Our K-12 and career readiness initiatives explore how to equip all students with the knowledge, skills, competence, and opportunities they need to reach and succeed in the jobs of tomorrow. You may have heard of:
- Our storytelling campaign about communities achieving greatness in education, Voices
- Our Business Leads Fellowship Program
Workforce Development & Upskilling
America needs a skilled workforce in order to grow. With industry requirements changing and evolving faster than ever, many of today’s job-seekers lack the skills employers look for. We explore ways to ensure Americans have the right skills for the jobs of today and tomorrow, and the American economy has the skilled workforce it needs to grow. You may have heard of:
- Our strategy to align classroom to careers, Talent Pipeline Management (TPM)
- Our open-data project to improve employer signaling, Job Data Exchange (JDX)
- Our exploration of the future of the talent marketplace, the T3 Innovation Network
