There were no televisions, computers or electronic games. A grade school education was sufficient to get a job. CWA now embarks on our next sixty years. Four-year olds play on personal computers and navigate the Internet. The global marketplace is a reality and today's employer is just as likely to be headquartered in Brussels as in Chicago.
Lifelong education is now a necessity for workers just to remain employable.
We embark together on a great adventure into a new century. Together we will make the new technology work for all people around the world. Uncertainty lies ahead. There will be bumps in the road. Our struggle may be never ending.
