Abstract: Policymakers across the country are seeking to better understand credentials of value--the education and training programs that help workers fill in-demand and growing jobs in their states. But right now, leaders are lacking the complete set of information they need to understand P-20W (early childhood, K-12, postsecondary, and workforce) pathways and other important metrics like the return on state investments in education and training. Expanding unemployment insurance (UI) wage data by incorporating more information about workers provides a powerful, existing data source that can equip leaders with the fullest picture of their workforce to help them make decisions that grow their state's economy and support workers in securing family-sustaining careers.
