About #Prepared4PA

Workforce development is a critical challenge for Pennsylvania. Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education (PASSHE) is rethinking its role in Pennsylvania’s workforce ecosystem to meet this challenge.

With #Prepared4PA, Pennsylvania’s State System’s 14 universities can answer this call to action by offering innovative programs and opportunities that prepare students for successful lives and careers in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. The initiative enables PASSHE to build a robust talent pipeline and develop industry-education workforce collaboratives that encourage alignment and connections within the workforce ecosystem.

#Prepared4PA is meaningfully linking education and industry by strengthening university partnerships with businesses and industries, supporting our current and future workforce.
