Episode 73 - Work-Based Learning
from Education Matters Hosted by Public School Forum of NC
Employers across the U.S. and here in North Carolina report they have more jobs available than the number of qualified applicants to fill them. Work-based learning opportunities have been expanding here for both students and educators to give them greater exposure to the rapidly changing workplace. This week we explore some promising efforts to help close the skills gap by linking business and education to benefit both employers and our students. Guests: • Tracy Bell, NBCT Hope Street Group NC Teacher Voice Network Fellow • Albert Eckel, Board Chair, NC Business Committee for Education • Dr. Matthew Meyer, Associate Vice President, NC Community • Molly Osborne, Director of Policy and Engagement, EdNC
