Education is key to overcoming coming jobs crisis. "The 2010 Meltdown: Solving the Impending Jobs Crisis" by Edwin Gordon
Teaching to the test will not enable America to withstand the test imposed by the economic crisis that is certain to descend upon this nation within the next five years, says Edwin Gordon, a corporate executive and prolific author on economic issues.
The impending crisis that Gordon explores in his latest book, The 2010 Meltdown, will have two seemingly incompatible dynamics – wholesale unemployment and businesses’ inability to find the qualified workers they need to compete effectively in the global economy.
That is going to happen, in Gordon’s view, largely because Americans are not being educated and trained in sufficient numbers to perform the kinds of work that accelerating technological change is generating.
