California, as the fifth-largest economy in the world, has a significant opportunity to lead in the creation and support of lifelong learning systems. The opportunity lies in designing and maintaining systems that serve people across their entire lifespan—from prenatal care and early childhood education through ongoing skill development in adulthood, and even learning opportunities in later stages of life. Let’s talk about: Early Learning and K-12 Education: Investing in high-quality early childhood education, universal preschool, and expanding family engagement to ensure children start school ready to succeed. Community Colleges and Higher Education: Leveraging the California Community Colleges and the UC/CSU systems to create flexible, accessible programs that cater to lifelong learners, especially for those who need to reskill or upskill. Workforce Development: Partnering with industries to create apprenticeships, internships, and continuous education programs that allow workers to adapt to new technologies and job markets. Civic and Community Engagement: Expanding community-based learning that encourages civic participation and engagement throughout one’s life. Aging and Continuing Education: Creating policies and programs that support education for aging populations, ensuring access to technology and community resources for older adults to continue learning and contributing. Let’s learn from what other states and counties are doing and start working on this now in benefit of our future!
