Abstract:

The link between education and economic growth has been understood for nearly as long as public schooling, but the concept is becoming increasingly important. International competition and technological advances have accelerated the rate of chance in the U.S. economy. The result is a decline in many traditional industries and occupations. This rapid change has focused attention on the need for improving not only education but also job training to meet new skill requirements and take advantage of new economic opportunities.
