I'm curious to find out if there are any differences in the type of education that is available today. Are Millenials' getting knowledge and skills that are in demand now or are we focusing on preparing them for the future?

In my experience with workforce development, the people who are faring pretty well in my area are those with trade, not academic, education. In large part, I'm sure it's because trade education generally includes some form of apprenticeship so they are ready to go with very little training investment.

Education without experience is a no-go right now. In fact, I saw a facebook status today from a young teacher who can't find a job because all the schools want people with several years of teaching history.
