Business as a Key to College & Career SuccessAs America's fastest-growing industry sectors increasingly rely on workers with technical skills, employers struggle to find employees with the science, technology, engineering or math (STEM) proficiency required for these fields. Why Deeper Learning?
What Are Chambers Doing?Throughout the country, Chambers of Commerce have facilitated partnerships with high schools, community and trade colleges and industry leaders to provide access to education, training and work-based learning opportunities that engage students and prepare them for high-skill, high-wage employment in fulfilling careers of their choice. From classroom projects to job shadowing to competitions, chambers have helped businesses bring a real-world perspective to community schools. Chambers have also backed education reforms and raised a collective business voice in support of deeper learning. |
