Educating A 21st Century Workforce

The public education system is failing to provide its students with the knowledge and skills necessary for them to be productive, informed citizens in coming decades. The prospect of an under-educated citizenry, unable to understand or cope with issues arising in the management of the country and Commonwealth, should alarm everyone.

- Every Child a Winner, 1991;MBAE's Blueprint for Education Reform

Twenty years after this call to action, Massachusetts employers are still concerned about whether our public schools are preparing students to compete in our global economy. Although MBAE has been instrumental in the many achievements of education reform, there is still much work left to be done. MBAE will continue to focus on changes that can be made at the state level to raise student achievement, particularly in our most challenged and disadvantaged districts. Your company can be a partner in this effort by sponsoring one of our annual projects or by contributing support to MBAE's operating expenses.

MBAE's ability to advocate on behalf of the employer community on key legislation, policy initiatives, and other developments affecting education reform in Massachusetts is dependent on your support. Grants, donations and sponsorships above $1,000 qualify the contributor for membership in MBAE.
