Webinar Overview:
School district and state level education leaders are
responsible for implementing curricula which prepare our children and students for
their future. But there can be tension between developing a curriculum to
create “well-rounded” students and a curriculum that helps create “job or
career ready” students.
After researching millions of actual job postings and hiring results, IDC found that the skills that support a well-developed, civically competent student are the same skills that will be widely in demand by employers in 2020 and beyond.
