Unlocking the Power of Data

The U.S. higher education and workforce landscapes are undergoing rapid transformation.

Data-Driven Solutions for Evolving Education and Workforce Needs

The U.S. higher education and workforce landscapes are undergoing rapid transformation. Driven by technological advancements, evolving educational paradigms, and economic shifts, this change is reshaping how we approach employment, skill development, and learning. As traditional boundaries blur between education and work, understanding these shifts is crucial for creating effective policies and programs that align workforce needs with educational outcomes and promote economic opportunity. Employers struggle to find workers with the right skills, while many Americans face challenges accessing education and training that lead to good jobs. Simultaneously, policymakers and program administrators often lack the data and evidence needed to design effective interventions. In today’s complex environment, the Foundations for Evidence-Based Policymaking Act of 2018 (Evidence Act) offers a framework to address these challenges by improving how the government collects, shares, and uses data.
