Workforce 2.0
Implications for new policy

 Scrap old programs: Move from fixing problems to
 “linking and leveraging” assets

 We need investments in:
 • One Stop infrastructure for skill assessments
    and career guidance
 • Vouchers for subsidizing training tied to skill
    assessments
 • Seed investments in productive collaborations
 • Applied research on new tool development
    and dynamic evaluation
