Center on Education and the Workforce

Georgetown University's Center on Education and the Workforce has launched a research repository where 650 different resources are freely available. Since 2008 the center has investigated jobs, skills, equity and other aspects of education and careers. Now, visitors can hunt down research by topic, date, keyword and publication type.

Among the most useful resources are the center's job projections and education requirements and its studies on credentials and competencies. Other coverage examines economic and racial justice, the non-economic benefits of higher education and state-level data.

The resource library also includes data tools to enable users to drill down into the reporting.

The library and its contents are openly available on the Center on Education and the Workforce website.
