Helping Employees Into Teaching Is A Big Job

This is the fourth document in the "Changing Workforce" series.

Executive Summary (This is a document excerpt)

Firms and government organizations that depend on a technology-literate workforce are witnesses to the triple threat of an aging workforce: fewer young people entering technology fields, soon to be retired baby boomers, and a decline in the US position in math and science education. Some are tackling the problem head on and helping to shore up the teaching ranks by aiding their own workers in becoming teachers. This is a noble cause in a time of teacher shortages, but it's not a slam dunk. Teaching is hard both physically and mentally and potential candidates need assistance from corporate sponsors to make sure that they approach this challenge realistically.
