Destiny Solutions commissioned a research firm to interview employers across North America to examine what employers feel are the skills needed to succeed in the workforce and how they want their employees to gain them. The research also explores such key issues as: How are employers investing in workforce development and continuing education? Do employers feel colleges and universities are meeting their needs? Are programs sufficiently relevant? Are corporate partnerships adequately available?
