It was an honor to participate last week for Gallup's release of "Not Just a Job: New Evidence on the Quality of Work in the United States." Congratulations to Gallup, Lumina Foundation, Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and Omidyar Network for releasing this interesting report.

Key takeway from @STEMsolutions #futureofworkforce conference: Pedigree and degrees matter less to employers. Instead employers are hiring based on skill and ability to perform. Resumes are being replaced with skill assessments and micro certifications to prove competency.

[Barrett Bridgewater @BarrettBridge]

Enjoyed a solid @stemsolutions #futureofwork conference with colleagues from @AdeccoGroupNA and @modis

@AcademiesofLou @JCPSKY Love the video! Employers, by partnering and apprenticing students while they are still in school you can take ownership of producing the skills you need. Attract talent students now, train them now, then when graduated they will be ready for a career with you.

[Barrett Bridgewater @BarrettBridge]

Great video! YES! is able to help businesses overcome the barriers to hiring youth. That would allow you to partner up and start pipelining @JCPSKY students.

[AcademiesofLou @AcademiesofLou]

🎥To kick-off National Apprenticeship Week, @JCPSKY held an event for local businesses to learn about investing in #apprenticeship programs with our high school students and build the skilled workforce of tomorrow! #NAW2018

Thank you Secretary Ramsey @KyEdWorkforce for the mention about @AdeccoUSA @YESprogramKY during @PubAffairsKET "Pathways for Tomorrow's Workforce." KY can be proud of the nation's top youth apprenticeship model https://t.co/5Iojl57YlF Stream it all here https://t.co/uXi1qqvx7D
