Pasadena City College presents The Future Of Work.
We are leading the conversation of how to begin closing the gap between what our students are learning and what the demands of the workforce will be once they enter.
We’ll be talking to policy makers, business owners, educators and the students we are advocating for. We’ll explore topics like how education can partner with industry, how to be more equitable and how to attain one of our highest goals, more internships.
This conversation impacts the future of all of us.
