There is no dispute about how important an educated workforce is. An educated workforce makes a company more competitive. Many states are finding, after the latest recession, that workforce development is the single most important economic development issue. But what is the impact of education on your employability?
A new study from Georgetown University's Center on Education and the Workforce finds that a college degree is the best defense against unemployment. A U.S. Census study shows that someone with a college degree may earn $1 million more in a lifetime than someone with only a high school degree. What does that mean for you? How can you earn a college degree?
The good news is that the University of Indianapolis School for Adult Learning (SAL) is has the programs in place to help educate the workforce:
