Education and Training — Skilled Labor: Help Wanted!

I believe we are an industry that is divided in terms of the type of education and training opportunities we stress to our young people and to our employees. We’ve always cultivated the technical skills we needed. Now we have to prepare our young people and employees for the growing demands of these jobs by cultivating the critical thinking, problem solving, planning, delegation, time management and communication skills required by an industry that is getting more competitive and more complex.
