  2. The Pressures for Workforce Development &Increased Education Attainment • Enhanced Quality of Life – the private and public benefits of postsecondary education • Global competitiveness • Retirement of the Baby Boomers • Increasing knowledge and skill requirements within occupations • Response to employment uncertainty/dislocations

Increasing Levels of Education Attainment Lead to Improved Societal Outcomes • Increased levels of workforce participation • Decreased rates of incarceration • Improved health outcomes • Reduced participation in Medicaid and other social service programs • Greater participation in artistic, cultural, and civic pursuits • Higher levels of volunteerism and social engagement

  11. What will it take to close the gap?

  12. Closing the Gap – Number of Degrees Required Beyond Current Production

  13. Educational Attainment (Percent) Current, in 2025 with current degree production, and best-performing countries in 2025

  14. Reaching Top Performance by 2025 (55%) – United States 94,510,473 31,382,831 63,127,642 40,605,747 7,045,932 15,626,080 781,304 52.8% Number of Individuals to Match Best-Performing Countries (55%) Number of Individuals (Age 25-44) Who Already Have Degrees Additional Degree Production Needed (2005 to 2025) Degrees Produced at Current Annual Rate of Production Additional Residents with College Degrees from Net Migration Additional Degrees Needed Additional Degrees Needed per Year (Currently Produce 2,135,924 in All Sectors) Increase in Annual Associate and Bachelor’s Degree Production Needed (in Public Sector Only)

  15. Degrees Produced 2005-25 with Current Rate of Production Additional Degrees from Population Growth Additional Degrees from Net Migration of College-Educated Residents Reaching Best Performance in High School Graduation Rates by 2025 Reaching Best Performance in College-Going Rates by 2025 Reaching Best Performance in Rates of Degree Production per FTE Student Total Degrees Produced 2005-25 If All of the Above Degrees Needed to Meet Best Performance (55%) Pipeline Performance Is Cumulative How Can the U.S. Reach International Competitiveness?

They must rely on the re-entry pipeline – getting older adults back into the education system and on track to attaining college degrees.
