This publication/report from Strada Education Foundation presents some very helpful findings and recommendations. “The State Opportunity Index was developed to help states build a stronger connection between education after high school and equitable pathways to opportunity, so students realize the full value of their education and employers have the workforce they need to fill high-demand jobs. Designed to guide state progress in five priority areas, the index helps states assess how well they are leveraging post-high school education — including degrees, certificates, and other credentials — to strengthen workforce competitiveness and pathways to opportunity.”

It was wonderful to gather with colleagues and peers at the National Press Club this morning to launch the inaugural State Opportunity Index from Strada Education Foundation, which rates - not ranks! - states based on five metrics focused on bridging the connection between education and economic opportunity. Three things I love about this report: 1) It rates each state on a scale of Foundational to Leading for each of the five key metrics, rather than ranks state performance from 1 - 50. 2) No state is Leading in all five metrics and no state is Foundational in all five metrics. Each state has its own strengths to share with the field as well as opportunities for growth. 3) The vast appendices facilitate this state-by-state comparison so that states can more easily learn from and collaborate with one another. I'm particularly proud of my colleagues Nichole Torpey-Saboe, PhD and David Clayton who have spearheaded this work, which is informed by and will continue to serve the field as we all work towards fulfilling the promise of higher education in this country.

On average, an education after high school is one of the best tools available for achieving economic mobility. Yet for many, an investment in education does not lead to the kind of meaningful work and economic security they had hoped for. Employers, too, are struggling to match talent with jobs. A special report developed by the Strada Education Foundation was developed to help states build a stronger connection between education after high school and equitable pathways to opportunity so students realize the full value of their education and employers have the workforce they need to fill high-demand jobs. Designed to guide state progress in five priority areas, the index helps states assess how well they are leveraging post-high school education to strengthen workforce competitiveness and pathways to opportunity.

Great research provided by @Stradaeducation. We thoroughly agree that we should, “Provide students, families, and other stakeholders with accessible education and employment data that can inform decision making and assure quality and value.” Students need better information about the value of what they have learned in their classrooms and how to signal that learning in terms of skills for the employers.

The government's introduction of Commonwealth Practicum Payments (CPP) aims to provide financial support for students, but means-testing could overlook those most in need. Many students struggle financially, and the means test may disqualify them from CPP despite genuine need. Additionally, leaving other employment for placements adds complexity and may jeopardise financial stability. This approach could lead to unemployment post-placement, worsening economic challenges. To ensure equitable support, policymakers should revise means-testing criteria to prioritise those most in need, fostering a fairer education system. #2024FederalBudget #placementpoverty #professionalisingtheprofession
