YCBK9: Necessary Job Skills for the Future - a podcast by Mark Stucker

In the News: Student advocacy groups are pushing to eliminate a question on the FAFSA application that is causing students each year to lose access to federal funding because of a drug related conviction and that has disproportionately affects students of color. Chapter 9 of 171 Answers: Mark brings a forward-thinking perspective by highlighting the projection of employment experts. The projection states that for pre-kindergarten students now, two-thirds of the jobs that will exist when they enter the workforce are not even on the radar today. What are the skills that will be absolutely required for these jobs of the future?
