President's Message: Zooming in on Community Colleges

Econ Focus, 2024, vol. 24, issue 4Q, 1-2

Abstract: Even as overall labor market conditions have normalized over the past year, employers in the skilled trades continue to report a lack of available workers. The overall supply of workers has improved, but the supply of workers with the right skills remains limited. Employers are not the only parties invested in strengthening the talent pipeline. Communities recognize that to be competitive, they need a strong workforce.
