"State Sector Strategies Coming of Age: Implications for State Workforce Policymakers"

This January 2013 paper from the National Governors' Association offers a snapshot of sector strategies today, an overview of what makes them different from traditional workforce and economic development programs and a description of actions that state administrators and policymakers can take as part of a policy framework to support the strategies’ creation and effective operation.  Access the report at http://www.nga.org/files/live/sites/NGA/files/pdf/2013/1301NGASSSReport.pdf

I would love to get a copy of the National Govenor's Report you just posted.  For some reason I can't seem to access it.  However career ladders is a topic that really interests me.  I train ABE teachers at the University of Minnesota and this is a vital area future and current teachers need to know about.

It comes right up for me from the link.  You might try cutting and pasting the URL from the post into your address bar.  But here's a back door way to access the report:

Go to the NGA publications page at http://www.nga.org/cms/center/publications and click the link for the report from that page.  There is access to other NGA reports that are useful on this page too.  I hope this way to get there works for you!
