Abstract: Colorado has a reputation for meeting its workforce needs in part by importing a large share of highly educated workers; the state must also ensure that the education and training pipelines within the state are adequately preparing youth and adults for the workforce and are aligned with the needs of the economy. Our conventional talent pipeline--as measured by the number of 9th graders that complete a Colorado public high school degree, directly enter college, and earn a degree on-time--accounts for about 23 of every 100 9th graders. We know that other education and training opportunities exist and that many of the other 77 out of 100 students follow equally successful alternate paths, but we have limited data on most of these alternative pipelines. A significant challenge identified in this report is to increase our understanding and data about these other pathways.
