Abstract
Governors and states recognize that postsecondary education is the new minimum for individuals and businesses to succeed, and
many have embraced the value of linking their education and training systems to meet their talent needs. The states that participated
in the Talent Pipeline Policy Academy from 2014 to 2017 made significant progress in taking this approach and implemented many
strategies and practices that other states could replicate. The challenge of building a talent pipeline to achieve the new minimum
has grown as a topic of national dialogue and critical importance. This road map can be an important tool for governors and states
interested in talent pipeline systems change to meet the new minimum.
