Agreeing with and adding to Jane Swifts post, I appreciate the closing statement in Julian Alssids report which states "This is the time to reimagine and rebrand workforce development as the key to an equitable future of work". What isn't mentioned but can be addressed through a change in the focus of curriculum is the profound lack of hope that many students have as a result of the pandemic, coupled with how our current educational structure disenfranchising hands-on learners. The five steps outline make perfect sense to me, and would set into motion a chain reaction of opportunity for students seeking not just jobs, but career pathways that lead to fulfilling lives. For those in #education, #workforce, and #pathways programs, I say let's work together to help make the changes we seek in this world.

Thanks to Julian Alssid for sharing a thought-provoking post on creating a better education and training system that drives economic growth and advancement opportunities for everyone. His post highlights the need for a "talent development system," and he and his co-author outline concrete steps for achieving this goal. One key takeaway is the importance of talent development as a lifelong process. In his concise model "talent development becomes the focus, and workforce development, corporate learning, and secondary and post-secondary education become complementary components of a holistic talent development system for lifelong learning and career mobility." I think I may add a subtitle to my LinkedIn profile: "Talent Development System Creator."
