Education Incorporated identifies ways education and business can work together to build a strong economy. While recognizing that schools and companies have different roles to play in the public arena, the focus is on what happens when their interests overlap. Describing formal and informal programs already underway, the book suggests specific actions to use existing resources and talents cooperatively. It also shows what government can do to promote collaborations between these sectors. Specific papers discuss ways in which education can find new uses for its buildings and resources, develop and expand training services to develop workforce potential, make use of research capacity and faculty expertise for business applications, and create flexible funding strategies to support their services to business and industry.
