Manage episode 301931419 series 2802133
In today’s rapidly changing economy, noncognitive skills development is the key to building a flexible, resilient, and strong workforce for today and in the future. Such skills include communication, integrity, and organization. They are in top demand by employers today, and uncovering how to develop them is an essential workforce policy area.
This episode of "Hardly Working" is a rebroadcast of an AEI event on noncognitive skills this past summer.
