  9. Why CCTI ?

  10. Transitions – Why Critical Today For most Americans, education and training through and beyond high school is now a necessary condition (not just the most advantageous or desirable route) for developing skills required by most well-paying jobs.

  11. 65% of the fastest growing occupations require some postsecondary education or training. • By 2010, 42% of all U.S. jobs will require a vocational certificate, associate degree, bachelor’s degree or higher. Bureau of Labor Statistics

  12. National Statistics on High School Students • For every 100 students who enter the 9th grade: • 21 do not graduate • 79 graduate from high school • 50 enter college within 2 years • 49 complete some college • 21 receive at least a baccalaureate degree

  13. Moreover, • Only 32% of all students in public high school leave high school prepared to attend college.* *The Manhatten Institute

  14. The Education Gap • The rates of high school graduation, college enrollment, postsecondary remediation, and completion vary significantly by race or ethnicity.

  15. Why is this important? • Because minorities are the fastest growing source of workers for the U.S. economy.

  16. Yet, as the data shows: Black and Hispanic students are: • Less likely to graduate from high school • Less likely to enroll in college • Less likely to complete a degree • Less likely to be prepared for the economy of the 21st century

  17. Percent of students who take remedial courses • 63% at two-year institutions • 40% at four-year institutions The Bridge Project Stanford University

  18. Old Paradigm School Work Retirement

  19. New Paradigm Education Schooling Higher Degree Update Skills New Employer New Career Re-entry Training New Certification Job Training LEARNING SWIRL

  20. Learning Swirl • People in and out of education/ training all of their lives • 5-7 Careers in lifetime • Numerous employers • Will require collaboration and partnerships to meet demand

  21. Bottom Line …Improving Transitions is a Critical Activity Because …

  22. We compete in a global economy …

  23. “The United States has benefited from its size and the flexibility of its labor markets. But it cannot remain a first-rate economic power with scores and graduation rates that lag behind those of other countries.” Standards for What? Carnevale and Desrochers

  24. “Education is the best bet to help us maintain our competitive edge.” Standards for What? Carnevale and Desrochers
