This book was released on 1995 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1989, the National Center on Education and the Economy created the Commission on the Skills of the American Workforce. In its 1990 report, "America's Choice: High Skills or Low Wages!," the commission recommended that the United States build a new skills-development system. This document provides a progress report on reforms that followed the publication of "America's Choice." Following a brief overview of developments at the national level, the rest of the document describes the reform efforts of 12 leading states--Indiana, Kentucky, Maine, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Vermont, Texas, Washington, and Wisconsin--in four areas: economic-development policy, basic education reform, the post-basic-education and training system, and the development of a labor-market system. Each state profile gives a broad picture of what the state is doing in these four areas, how the reforms fit together, and the strengths and weaknesses of the state strategy. The states: (1) set high standards for basic education; (2) offer professional and technical pathways leading to an industry-recognized certification; (3) help corner the quality market; and (4) are building a market for employment and training services. Lessons learned about the reform process and system design are also discussed. A total of 26 tables and 12 figures are included. (LMI)

This book was released on 2017-06-04 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Skilled technical occupationsâ€"defined as occupations that require a high level of knowledge in a technical domain but do not require a bachelor's degree for entryâ€"are a key component of the U.S. economy. In response to globalization and advances in science and technology, American firms are demanding workers with greater proficiency in literacy and numeracy, as well as strong interpersonal, technical, and problem-solving skills. However, employer surveys and industry and government reports have raised concerns that the nation may not have an adequate supply of skilled technical workers to achieve its competitiveness and economic growth objectives. In response to the broader need for policy information and advice, Building America's Skilled Technical Workforce examines the coverage, effectiveness, flexibility, and coordination of the policies and various programs that prepare Americans for skilled technical jobs. This report provides action-oriented recommendations for improving the American system of technical education, training, and certification.

Book excerpt: This report is part of the Investing in People Project, in which states worked to develop and implement work force preparation and training strategies to meet the challenge of a competitive global economy. The choices that states, firms, and individuals must make in order to enjoy a high standard of living are discussed. In order to achieve a high standard of living, states need to change their focus from "cheap" and "quick" job training to long-term educational changes that will ensure highly skilled workers and to persuading industries and companies to become high-performing competitors in the world marketplace. The three sections of this report discuss the following: (1) the new world economy and the realities of change, including the worldwide marketplace, changing products and technology, current state economic development strategies, and smart workers and smart businesses; (2) new realities and changing roles, such as new awareness of change and choices, new structures and helping industries themselves, and managing the transition; and (3) education, work force skills, and economic competitiveness, including the need to move businesses up the performance curve, smoothing the school-to-work transition, training the 75 percent of students who do not graduate from college, and job training for adult workers. Contains 24 references. (KC)

Book excerpt: These four diagnostic guides, developed as part of the Investing in People Project in Connecticut, Iowa, Kentucky, Washington, and West Virginia, can be used to help states in assessing their current work force and economic development systems and in building more comprehensive, integrated, and effective strategies for improving the work force. Diagnostic guides 1 and 2 assist a team in collecting and organizing information about its state work force and economic development programs. Guide 1 helps team members examine the following: why they have come together, what forces are pushing for change, what obstacles may need to be overcome, and what initial goals need to be set. Guide 2 leads the team through a complete assessment of the state's existing economic development, education, and job training programs, focusing on the current social, economic, political, and demographic conditions of the state. Using diagnostic guides 3 and 4, the team can develop short- and long-term strategies and identify critical areas of focus. These two guides provide a framework in which state teams can evaluate the quality and impact of the team's work force strategies. Because the government and political environment can change quickly, guides 3 and 4 are designed to allow a team to follow changes in the policy, economic, and social contexts of its state. A framework for evaluation, guide 4 helps the team in the ongoing process of implementing and sustaining change in the state's human investment systems. (KC)
