Confronting the Uncomfortable Truth: Why Students Are Struggling to Find Work in 2024
How can we do a better job at providing students with opportunities that fulfill them both personally and professionally in 2024? It all begins by selecting program funding intentionally and choosing partners and projects that make a real impact on a student’s future and career path. Host Salvatrice Cummo, Vice President of Economic & Workforce Development at Pasadena City College and Leslie Thompson, the Director of Operations, reflect on the year as a whole: what worked and what needs to change. They’ll cover everything from what drives the programming decisions, how they locate funding sources, and why it’s time to go against traditional techniques and try selling the industry as a whole- not just the talent. Together we can challenge the notion of students as mere commodities and expand the evolving landscape of education and workforce development.
