Increasingly, Americans are concerned with the quality of their schools and the skills of their workforce. This book profiles innovative education programmes from France, Great Britain, Sweden and Germany. It also looks at a US project where educators in West Philadelphia have joined with the local government, industry and community groups to make their schools the centres of their communities. This book presents guidelines for strengthening work force competence in America, with particular emphasis on those who will make up an increasingly significant portion of the future workforce - young people from minority groups.
William E. Nothdurft, a policy consultant, is also the author of Going Global: How Europe Helps Small Firms Export (Brookings, 1992).
