Career-Ready Education: Beyond the Skills Gap
Beyond the Skills Gap: Tools and Tactics for an Evolving Economy |
|
Employers complain that they can’t find qualified candidates for certain jobs, while educators defend their curricula and argue that employers aren’t investing in training new hires. Meanwhile, economists point to more than five million vacant positions across the country. Whether these conversations are driven by a skills gap, labor-market friction, or another challenge, the back-and-forth hasn't generated many solutions. Purchase The Chronicle's report, “Career-Ready Education,” and learn why the pathways from degree to profession aren't as accessible as they once were. This report examines the forces driving change and the challenges ahead, ways to structure academic programs to foster employability, and how institutions can adapt to and prepare for emerging market trends. |
