“Our real challenge is: How do we train workers for the jobs of today and the jobs of tomorrow in our country?” CEW’s Zack Mabel said. @educationweek @EvieBlad edweek.org/teaching-learn…

Took a spin in a big rig at @dieseldriving in Baton Rouge last week. I appreciate the tour and all they do to prepare Louisianans for in-demand, high-paying jobs. These folks keep America moving!

Toured Lincoln Tech in New Britain. They help turn dreams of a new career into a reality, particularly when it comes to entering the healthcare industry or electrical and HVAC trades. Their campus has the facilities and instructors that help create more opportunities in CT-05 and across the country.

Had the opportunity to tour @FullSail on their 46th anniversary before being honored with the Icon Award last week. Great work is being done to prepare students with a hands-on learning experience in entertainment and technology.

Humanities degrees do pay off in the long run. Our research shows that students who go to liberal arts colleges, over the long term, earn a total of about $200K more than all college graduates. @hechingerreport @JonMarcusBoston hechingerreport.org/saving-the-fie…
