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. Our work includes:
- Our Employer Roadmap: Childcare Solutions for Working Parents
- Our Untapped Potential reports
- Our case studies of those who are leading the way
Connecting K-12 to Careers
Our work aims to ensure the success of K-12 students by promoting data- and standards-driven approaches to advancing student proficiency, closing achievement gaps, and equipping the education community with resources to address these challenges. Key K-12 programming includes:
- Our Business Leads Fellowship Program
- Our Future of Data in K-12 Education Initiative
Workforce Development
To connect workers with real pathways to jobs employers are trying to fill, we're transforming employer engagement in business education partnerships; addressing the communication gap so employers are clear about the skills they need; and leveraging the latest technology to better support all stakeholders in the talent marketplace. Our key programs include:
- Our strategy to align classroom to careers, Talent Pipeline Management (TPM)
- Our exploration of the future of the talent marketplace, the T3 Innovation Network
- Utilizing the latest tech and data to better match the right people with the right jobs, through the Jobs and Employment Data Exchange (JEDx)
- A public-private approach to investing in talent to address the challenges and requirements of the new economy, through Talent Finance
