Almost 1.7 million older workers retired early because of the pandemic crisis, says a report by the New School for Social Research’s Retirement Equity Lab. In fact, by the third quarter of 2020, nearly 28.6 million Baby Boomers had retired out of a total national cohort of about 71.6 million, according to Pew Research.
Industry warned what was on the horizon. This unprecedented rise in retirement has opened doors to opportunities for our CTE students for innovative, promotable, high skilled, and well-paying careers. Our local industry partners are primed, willing, and able to train and employ.
The 2021/2022 LACOE Office of CTE’s 21st Century CTE Careers Symposium professional development series highlights Los Angeles County industry partners and their respective industry sector(s) and cutting-edge career opportunities.
We invite you to take a virtual tour of their facilities and learn about classroom requirements, duties, and other necessities in order to prepare our CTE students for a 21stcentury career.
We also invite your students to accompany you to this Transportation Symposium. We welcome their questions and will present students with professional opportunities beyond the classroom.
