Communication, teamwork and problem-solving are clear priorities among success skills that employers seek, according to a new report by the Southern Regional Education Board.
The Skills Employers Demand: An Analysis of the Research summarizes 10 years of studies, from 2013 to 2023, and analyzes job postings in the 16 SREB states.
The report is designed to help educators and policymakers as they integrate these skills into what students learn in K-12, dual enrollment and postsecondary education. SREB’s Dual Enrollment Initiative includes a focus on skills for careers of the future.
