"In order to fill projected credential shortages in all occupations aligned with these credentials (both high paying and lower paying), we would need to produce 712,000 additional credentials annually by 2032." Colleges need to keep us competitive. 👉 cew.georgetown.edu/wp-content/upl…

Nearly two decades later, this alarm bell is still ringing, and it’s even louder. With 72% of U.S. jobs projected to require postsecondary training by 2031, disinvestment in #highered will cause us to fall further behind globally — perhaps permanently. 👉 hechingerreport.org/opinion-clampi…
