The Relationship Between Education, the Workforce, and the Economy
In the 1970s and 80s, traditionalist educators insisted that a great education should include lots of structure, specific standards of performance, and a heavy dose of memorization of key facts and concepts. These they assured, would help our students to enter the workforce already proficient in language and writing skills, mathematics, science, social studies, and some critical thinking. Are those skills enough for an IE student to succeed in the current and coming workforces. What do students in the Inland Empire need to know today? Are our schools preparing graduates with what they really need to know and preparing our community with upcoming graduates ready to take local businesses and industry into a brighter future? Find out in today's episode.
Featured Guests: Michael Goss, the Director of the Inland Empire/Desert Center of Excellence for Labor Market Research. Paul Granillo, President & CEO, Inland Empire Economic Partnership (IEEP).
