High Skills for High Growth Careers: New Approaches to Postsecondary Career Education
FutureWorks initiated this year-long project to explore and document new strategies and structures for postsecondary education that can better satisfy the complex occupational education needs and skill demands of the 21st century knowledge economy. This project investigated how new institutional models are beginning to emerge in response to these challenges. It compared and contrasted these emerging models and suggested the core elements of alternative institutional strategies for postsecondary occupational education. It also examined possible policy options that could accelerate effective response to these challenges. This project was funded by the U.S. Department of Education, and the final report is now available.
