Today, U.S. companies face unprecedented competition from abroad and an economy that puts a growing premium on knowledge and talent. In Greater Philadelphia, 43% of the population has an associate’s degree or higher, but by 2020, two-thirds of all jobs nationally will require a postsecondary degree. One of the most promising strategies for boosting regional degree attainment is helping more students who start college to finish. Join the Economy League and Talent Greater Philadelphia on November 29 for a forum focused on the region’s college completion challenges, opportunities, and strategies.
