"Doing the work requires intentional, innovative and multidisciplined approaches across sectors with the common goal of reducing barriers and improving outcomes" —BLU Executive Comittee member, Victoria Johnson, helped write this HDR piece Read here: hdrinc.com/insights/risin…
This morning, the Senate Appropriations committee passed the Labor-Health and Human Services-Education bill through committee. Level funding for #wkdev, small increase for #apprenticeship. Supported by members on both sides of the aisle.
On the move in the Senate: JOBS Act (a #wkdev package that @SkillsCoalition has longtime advocated for) along with leg that would expand partnerships between biz and training providers, support career pathway programs, and that would modernize the national #apprenticeship act.
TY to @aspenideas and @comcast for the chance to dig in with Commerce's Zoe Baird and Google's @LisaGevelber about what it will take from both the private sector and gov't policy when 92% of today's jobs require digital skills currently out of reach for millions of US workers.
Only at #AspenIdeas would you get a chance to do a @WorkingNation podcast with @RamonaWritesLA in a Bucky Dome! Looking forward to hearing the future playback of our discussion about #skills, policy, future workforce opps/challenges and the history of the @SkillsCoalition.
Proud to be here at #AspenIdeas with the @comcast team. Today, some of us are at a session about Democratizing Wealth, led by my long-time @AspenInstitute colleague @idarademacher , with @Prudential ‘s @latareddy , @macfound ‘s @jpalfrey and Robinhood’s Baiju Bhatt.
On 6/27, @CommerceGov Sr. Counselor Zoë Baird, @LisaGevelber, moderator @charterworks co-founder @delaney, and I will be taking the #AspenIdeas stage to discuss solutions for a skilled and fair workforce. Follow @aspenideas and join the conversation!

Looking forward to kicking off Day2 of @OnRampEdu . I learned so much from these ed-tech innovators yesterday. Today I’ll share where #skillspolicy needs to get equally innovative to meet the needs to 10s of millions of working folks. @gener8tor @ecmcgroup @ECMCFoundation
