Reasoned solutions in the nation’s interest
Postsecondary education and training programs should improve career prospects for individuals and build a stronger workforce, but for too many US students higher education is a significant risk and cost. CED supports reforms to move the US toward a postsecondary education and training ecosystem of broader, more affordable access and improved individual career outcomes that more responsively meet the evolving needs of business and advances the national interest. CED also recognizes the critical role of business leaders in improving education. Business leaders can partner with education providers to shape the pipeline of future employees and advocate for investment and innovation.
Education and training programs prepare not only better citizens but also skilled workforce entrants with in-demand, cutting-edge abilities and knowledge.
