The Virtuous Cycle of Work, Learn, Earn
Lang, Dawn
Council for Adult and Experiential Learning
Bringing together industry, workforce organizations, postsecondary institutions and working adults can solidify pathways to sustainable employment and regional economic growth. Expanding awareness of--and access to--potential career pathways happens when people connect with the education and training that prepare them for in-demand roles. When the disparate parts that keep a community's economy in motion synchronize, that process becomes more effective and expansive. Resources working seamlessly together empower students and job seekers to make the right decisions and unlock rewarding careers. As working adult learners flow from declining industries into growing ones, they power economic growth across entire communities. With that perspective, the Council for Adult and Experiential Learning (CAEL) has created a framework which they call Work Learn Earn. Work Learn Earn partnerships will cover a range of scopes. The model is designed for configuration and scalability to meet the needs of communities throughout the country. But its mission remains the same. Wherever it's deployed, it focuses on driving educational attainment and career pathways that enable economic growth. This article highlights three industry partnerships in New York, Tennessee, and Texas.
