For students:
BE CAREER READY!
Plan, Prepare, Go!
While our educational system has, in recent years, finally realized the need to change from “college ready” to “career ready” due to the severe issues we are currently facing (college graduate underemployment and a massive trades shortage), actual change in curriculum and focus in most schools is still a monumental challenge. This is understandable since the focus has been primarily about college ready since the 1950s!
We introduce our students to the labor market where they need it most; prior to graduation! With a radical new approach to post-graduation planning that focuses on combining accurate labor market research for college preparation, a new and long overdue perspective about careers in trades, and curriculum centered on labor market research we have proven success in improving student attitude and confidence as they approach graduation.
For employers and students:
A NEW CAREER LANDSCAPE
Increased Career Demands
Our modern American labor market has rapidly and drastically changed in recent years and will continue to do so in the foreseeable future. While a changing labor market is certainly nothing new, the current degree and speed of career-demand evolution is something this country has never seen before, not even during the Industrial Revolution. Compton & Compton Labor Market Transition Specialists are a dedicated, experienced team of successful labor market analysts who decided to be proactive and take their knowledge where it matters the most: to the next generation who will inherit this new career landscape and to the employers seeking to engage them.
