Module1, Activity4, Question 2

What barriers exist to moving ahead?
The biggest barrier to moving ahead, will be the lack of interest from the 21st century businesses in the education system. I see many businesses looking for graduates in job fairs at universities. But I rarely see businesses working with the education system to create the employees that the business will later recruit.

Today’s business will need to see how their involvement in the education systems will better their business in a measurable way. Without seeing the measurable result, I don’t think that businesses will participate fully. When that measurable result is clearly developed I think that the community will involve itself more with the education systems it surrounds.
