Gap analysis: potential vs actual

Objective 2: Why are our young people so inadequately prepared?!

Root Cause Analysis FACTOR

Objective 3: Tools and Strategies

Business has the capacity to help solve the problem by partnering with education and community leaders to create opportunities for young people to practice the skills they need to be successful. Bill Shore, Director U.S. Community Partners GlaxoSmithKline

Internships can be that opportunity that gives students a chance to cultivate applied skills needed in the workplace and to understand how learning connects to careers or to solving real-world problems. Ken Kay, President Partnership for 21 st Century Skills

School of Applied Skills Education should be empowering. It should point us to our strengths, our capacity. That is what every parent wants for their child: to be encouraged, challenged, to get along with others, and to have enough opportunities in a variety of settings to find their way to success.. Carolyn King Richmond,President and CEO MicroSociety

We need to create independent, self-motivated learners who have developed strong basic skills and higher level of thinking that are able to transfer ideas and emphasize concepts. We need to create leaders. Wilson Hughes, VP J&J

So many parents dont know what is out there for their child and what the expectations are, so they are dropping the ball when it comes to career and college planning. Brian Justin, CEO Optical Inc.
