Subject: INVITE: How schools can produce "future-ready" graduates for your business

Hunter + 1,

Employers like you have a hard time finding workers with 21st century skills. Meanwhile, many high school graduates have trouble finding good jobs. There's a mismatch in our economy, and it is about to get dramatically worse.

Economists have warned about automation and "the future of work" for years, but what does it actually mean for employers? How will your company's needs change, and what does a model employee look like? What must high school graduates learn in order to compete?

Please join us Tuesday, December 11, for a webinar with Carmel Martin, Managing Director of XQ Institute, for a discussion on the future of work and how high school redesign can help students and their future employers compete.
