Results From the Survey of Community College Outcomes Extended Pilot
Kosakow, Jason; Ullrich, Laura Dawson; Walker, Jacob (2023-11-17)
After three years of developing partnerships with community colleges across the Fifth District, we are proud to release our first-year results from our extended pilot of the Survey of Community College Outcomes.When the Richmond Fed launched this initiative, the most common question we heard from community colleges was, "Why does the Richmond Fed care about community colleges?" The answer is that the Richmond Fed cares about workforce development, and community colleges play a vital role across the Fifth District providing individuals with the skills needed to participate in the workforce.

What Works at Scale? A Framework to Scale Up Workforce Development Programs
Ruder, Alexander (2019-06-01)
Workforce development policymakers have access to a growing catalog of training programs evaluated with rigorous randomized controlled trials. This evidence base identifies programs that work in specific geographic and temporal contexts but may not necessarily work in other contexts or at a scale sufficient to meet regional workforce needs. The author examines a sample of recent randomized controlled trials of workforce development programs and reports to what extent this body of evidence informs policymakers about what works at scale. The author finds that most programs are implemented at a ...

Creating a Vibrant, Inclusive Economy: Remarks at the Community College of Rhode Island
Collins, Susan M. (2023-05-25)
First, I want to highlight why I wanted to prioritize speaking at a community college like CCRI; and why community colleges, and all of you engaged with them, are so important to our economy and society. Then, I’ll talk briefly about the range of things we do at the Federal Reserve, to advance our mission. And finally, I’ll share some of the lessons I’ve learned from my own career path, in case my experiences may be helpful to you.

Early Childhood Education: Now More Than Ever
Barkin, Tom (2020-10-13)
College graduates fare better on a variety of outcomes, but many students who enroll in college do not graduate, particularly low-income and minority students. Research shows that preparation is key to college completion, and that preparation begins with early childhood education. There are disparities in access to high-quality early childhood education that track with disparities in college completion. Pandemic-related child care and school closures risk exacerbating the already-large gaps in educational attainment between children from high- and low-income families.Parents are struggling to ...

Job Training Mismatch and the COVID-19 Recovery: A Cautionary Note from the Great Recession
http://fedora:8080/fcrepo/rest/objects/authors/; Hyman, Benjamin (2020-05-27)
Displaced workers have been shown to endure persistent losses years beyond their initial job separation events. These losses are especially amplified during recessions. (1) One explanation for greater persistence in downturns relative to booms, is that firms and industries on the margin of structural change permanently shift the types of tasks and occupations demanded after a large negative shock (Aghion et al. (2005)), but these new occupations do not match the stock of human capital held by those currently displaced. In response to COVID-19, firms with products and services that complement ...
