That preparation is key to ensuring that employers remain globally competitive and that all Americans share in broad-based and growing prosperity. The COVID-19 pandemic has upended the nation’s education and training. Early Education and Child Care:   \nThe Essential Sector and K-12: COVID-19 Disruption Must Lead to Overdue Reform outlined the acute disruption to early childhood education and services and elementary and secondary education, but the fallout from COVID-19 has shaken all levels of education and training.  \nAs they struggle in the pandemic environment, colleges, job training programs, apprenticeships, and other forms of postsecondary training face many of the same health and service-delivery challenges as education providers at earlier ages.1 Attempting to follow the type of guidelines for safe operations outlined by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) will require schools and providers to significantly modify nearly every aspect of how they function and organize to better enforce social distancing and ensure the health of students, staff, and the surrounding community.2 These modifications will change how students congregate and interact with instructors in classrooms, labs, lecture halls, and other learning environments.  \nBut postsecondary education providers also face unique challenges. Although there are tentative indications that young children may be significantly less susceptible to severe COVID-19 symptoms and less likely to infect others, college-age students do not appear to share in those characteristics.3 Many colleges also face the challenge of safely providing on-campus housing and other campus-based services. The College Board  \nestimates that more than a quarter of all full-time undergraduates who took courses in  \nclassroom settings lived on campus in the 2015–2016 school year.4  \nFor many providers of postsecondary education and training, especially those who  \nwere struggling to adapt to or overcome dim financial prospects prior to the pandemic, additional financial losses or expenses due to COVID-19 pose an existential threat to the viability of their continued operations. But COVID-19 threatens to weaken the quality of  \neducational services and the long-run fiscal health of many institutions that were high  \nperforming before the crisis.  \nHowever, merely weathering COVID-19 would be a setback to the postsecondary sector.  \nLong before the pandemic hit, it was in need of greater innovation and accountability for students of all backgrounds to help them develop and prosper from their talents. After a decade of slow recovery and expansion from the last economic crisis, too many working  \nage Americans remained economically vulnerable and seemingly stuck in low-income  \njobs. And for too many students with low-income job prospects, time in the postsec  \nondary education and training system represented a financial risk out-of-proportion to its  \nlikely benefits, given the costs involved and the odds of noncompletion.  \nAs outlined in this report, policymakers, business leaders, and educators must address  \nCOVID-19’s near-term disruption but also transform how we train the future workforce.  \nSolutions in the national interest should move us toward a system of broader, affordable  \naccess and improved individual outcomes—in which business, education providers, the  \ngovernment, and individual students more fully share in the cooperative enterprise of  \npreparing and supporting ","cbCaifCOgoyMKemD","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaifCOgoyMKemD","pdf",359218,11,"English","# Developing the Future Workforce\n## Education and training disruptions after COVID-19\n## Challenges for postsecondary providers\n## Policy actions for transformation","[{\"question\":\"How has COVID-19 affected postsecondary education and training?\",\"answer\":\"COVID-19 upended education and training by creating health and service-delivery challenges that require major operational changes, altering how students congregate and interact in learning environments.
