We’re Facing a
Workplace Skills Gap
Florida needs a world-class, skilled workforce to lead in global innovation, ensure future economic growth and fill the jobs being created by technical employers.
Unfortunately, employers simply can’t find applicants with the necessary skills for today’s workplace. Even worse, this skills gap is widening due to students being steered to pursue bachelor’s degrees instead of entering a technical, skilled, and service field.
As result, hundreds-of-thousands of jobs are left unfilled every single year.
