CWELL
- San Diego Consortium for Workforce Education and Lifelong
Learning
The
Workforce Education and Lifelong Learning Certificate
offers advanced study and field-based research
opportunities for educators interested in assuming
leadership roles in the development of education and
training programs for non-college bound youth and adults.
Employment opportunities include positions as training
specialists, instructional developers, program
administrators, and instructors in community colleges,
adult education programs, and job training
programs.
Improving the
knowledge and skills of families and workers is one of
the most important challenges facing American education.
Economists note that even if school reform could be
rapidly accomplished, it would have minimal influence on
productivity, literacy, or quality of life in the work
place during the next 20 years because out-of-school
youth and adults are not subject to school reform, and
they will constitute the vast majority of the American
workforce until well into the next century.
