Passion
“The Board recognizes there must be a skilled workforce to meet the projected need. In 2010, the Board set an attainment goal that 60% of Idahoans, age 25 to 34, have a postsecondary degree or certificate by 2020.”
This is not the solution…
Credentials must be meaningful and purposeful
“Secondary, postsecondary and adult courses, programs, training and services administered by the division of professional-technical education for occupations or careers that require other than a baccalaureate, master's or doctoral degree. The courses, programs, training and services include, but are not limited to, vocational, technical and applied technology education. They are delivered through the professional-technical delivery system of public secondary and postsecondary schools and colleges.”
