CURRENT SITUATION

Help Wanted

Shortage of Skilled Workforce

Right Now

Nationally

428,000 + skilled jobs going unfilled

Minnesota

12,000 + skilled jobs going unfilled

Between Now and 2025…

The skills gap widens! 2.4 million manufacturing jobs unfilled

Baby-boomers all hit age 65+ by 2029…

In Minnesota alone, more than 20,000 new RN’s are needed by 2024.

Cost for Degree (Tuition & Fees) $55,360

University Other

Destination of High School Grads

Over 40% of those going to the University don’t finish their degree…

Most High School grads are choosing the 4-year University...

Market Failure: Education / Labor Market Mismatch

B.A. or higher 33% Skilled Training 57% Unskilled 10%

58% are going to the University, but… In 2018, 57% of all jobs in our economy will require some form of credentialed technical training or an Associate’s Degree.

Harvard University Study

Educational requirements for jobs in 2018

Only 1/3 of jobs need a bachelor’s degree or higher.

Key Fact:

We’re just noting that the pendulum has swung over to one side.

We love four-year schools too!

But the need is for…

The solution to the skilled workforce shortage is right in front of us.

Our Premise

It’s not recruit from outside, but reallocate what we already have.

We just need to get young people moving in the right direction.

Impact class enrollment

Enrollment in first-year “pathway” classes is up dramatically.

• Reinforces the old stereotype of manufacturing.
• Discourages exploration of technical education.
• “Turns off” students and parents.

This is what we had…
