This new peer-learning cohort is led by the National League of Cities (NLC) and CAEL (Council for Adult and Experiential Learning) to accelerate city efforts to design, develop, and launch an initiative to connect adults to postsecondary educational opportunities that lead to good jobs.
The Connecting Adults to Postsecondary and Workforce Success initiative will work with municipalities teams, led by the City of LaBelle’s Mayor Julie Wilkins, to spur innovative and scalable city-supported solutions to holistically support adults through the completion of credentials and on the path to high quality jobs.
In 2022, Hendry County and FutureMakers Coalition at Collaboratory was chosen by CivicLab as one of five rural partnerships across the U.S. to participate in a two-year initiative to improve higher education and workforce systems.
