Abstract
Education and training policies should prepare all U.S. residents to participate in the skilled workforce and help industries compete in a changing economy. Workforce Data Quality Campaign (WDQC) and National Skills Coalition (NSC) advocate for inclusive, aligned, and market-relevant data systems that can advance our nation's skilled workforce and ensure economic growth and prosperity. To achieve this vision, states can use legislation and administrative policies to promote certain key features of state longitudinal data systems.
