abstract: 'Although attention to labor market preparation, access, and retention
|
|
|
|
for disadvantaged workers has experienced a dramatic turnaround in the
|
|
|
|
past 6 years for economic and policy reasons, serious challenges remain.
|
|
|
|
Today''s workforce development implies more than employment training in
|
|
|
|
the narrow sense: It means substantial employer engagement, deep
|
|
|
|
community connections, career advancement, integrative human service
|
|
|
|
supports, contextual and industry-driven education and training,
|
|
|
|
reformed community colleges, and connective tissue of networks. This
|
|
|
|
article discusses six areas of workforce development learning: (a)
|
|
|
|
retention and advancement, (b) employer and jobseeker customers, (c)
|
|
|
|
regions and neighborhoods, (d) race and labor markets, (e) best
|
|
|
|
practices and replication, and (f) labor market reform. In addition to
|
|
|
|
inevitable economic downturns, optimism should be tempered by three big
|
|
|
|
challenges: the underlying patterns of wage and income inequality, the
|
|
|
|
persistence of race and gender inequalities, and our historic failure to
|
|
|
|
create effective links between schools and labor markets.'
