Workforce Context

The number of jobs requiring technical

training is growing at five times the rate of other

occupations.

Innovate America, U.S. Council on Competitiveness

Workforce Context

Texas Cluster Initiative - Workforce

“60% of the jobs in the Texas biotechnology cluster require only an associates degree or certificate.”

The reality is many of the Texas Cluster’s high-tech jobs are split between requirements for community and technical college degrees and 4-year degrees.

Skilled technical jobs are attainable and critically needed by industry.

Did your regional college

have a web program in

1995?

Does your regional

college have a web curriculum

today?

Ray Kurzweil

An analysis of the history of technology shows that technological change is

exponential, contrary to the common-sense "intuitive linear" view.

Exponential View

“So we won't experience 100 years of progress in the 21st century -- it will be more like 20,000 years of

progress (at today's rate)… because we're doubling the rate of progress every decade, we'll see a century of progress--at today's rate--in only 25

calendar years.”

Kurzweil, KurzweilAI.net, March 7, 2001

What is driving these advances?

Innovation & Competitiveness

“Innovation is the key to driving growth and prosperity. Economists calculate that approximately 50% of U.S. annual

GDP growth is attributed to increases in innovation.”

Council on Competitiveness

Changing Nature of Innovation

1. Faster2. Multidisciplinary3. Collaborative4. Democratized5. Global

From: Measuring Regional Innovation, Council on Competitiveness

http://www.compete.org/

Technology curriculum is increasingly multidisciplinary, comprising knowledge, skills and abilities from traditionally desperate academic and occupational domains.

Changing Nature of Innovation

“…the changing nature of innovation and accelerating global competition means that the U.S. can no longer rest on its past success. Our innovation leadership is not guaranteed and neither is our history of a rising living standard. To sustain our growth, we must innovate more, innovate better, and innovate faster.”

Measuring Regional InnovationCouncil on Competitiveness

…but it shouldn’t dumbfound us.”Buckminster Fuller
