Issue Position: Expand Workforce Preparation by Offering Vocational Curriculum in Middle School

Issue Position

West Virginia needs an educated, prepared workforce. However, a four-year college degree isn't for everyone. To grow our workforce, we must grow the skilled professionals available. Introducing our children and grandchildren to a wide range of professions, including technical and trades professions, is vital to ensuring that West Virginia companies have skilled workers and that our kids have a career pathway when they finish school.
