On the one hand, American employers have been vocal in saying that American students are educationally deficient, that they are not prepared in the new basics required in the high performance workplace, that the young people who come to them for jobs do not meet their requirements. On the other hand, employers show no apparent regard for the applicant s high school record. Employers at the Education Summit promised to turn this around. When students learn that academic achievement matters to employers, they will take it much more seriously. HIRE ED was created through the Business Industry Education Alliance.
Employers look at high school records and also visit schools and talk to students.
The Alliance has provided every public high school with a fax machine to help schools respond to requests from employers. All rights reserved. This entire site protected by copyright. All rights reserved.
