American Graduate: Building West Virginia's Workforce
For decades, manufacturers in the U.S. have warned of a massive skills gap: There just aren't enough new skilled workers to make up for older ones who are retiring. As the Mountain State's skilled workforce ages and manufacturing evolves, there are job opportunities in West Virginia that require some training or certification, but not a 4-year degree. West Virginia Public Broadcasting looked at the career pathways that are available in West Virginia. WVPB worked with community partners throughout the state to assess workforce challenges and opportunities and to produce content highlighting individuals as they pursue a variety of pathways leading to high-demand jobs and livable wages.
