How Colorado Gov. Polis’ NGA Agenda Could Reshape America’s Workforce
As Colorado Governor Jared Polis assumes the role of Chair of the National Governors Association (NGA), his agenda presents a compelling vision for transforming education and workforce development across the nation. Drawing from many successful initiatives in Colorado, Polis offers a roadmap for aligning postsecondary education with the evolving needs of the workforce, potentially revolutionizing how America prepares learners for the jobs of tomorrow.

In Colorado, Polis has championed policies that break down these silos, and laid the foundation for a system that is better integrated and more responsive e to learners and employers.
