Goal
2: Employees will have access to continuous learning opportunities
to remain competitive in the global economy.
Workers
today must be continuously learning new skills. Technology
brings rapid changes to the workplace, and economic restructuring
means people today face more frequent job changes than
their parents did. North Carolina's community college
system has earned high marks for its workforce training
programs. Moving forward, classes offered over the Internet
and other distance education initiatives are expected
to play an increasingly important role in workforce training
and retraining.
