Labor Market Literacy Tools
Understanding what’s happening in the local labor market — what jobs are in demand, what they pay, the education they require, etc. — is critical to connecting educational investment to labor market payoff. Yet, high school and college advisors don’t have the information they need to help students navigate today’s labor market.
