Abstract	Surveys of New England employers, college academic officers, and graduates find that many consider today's college graduates inadequately prepared for the world of work. In 2017, the New England Board of Higher Education convened the Commission on Higher Education & Employability, under the leadership of Rhode Island Governor Gina M. Raimondo. The Commission brought together stakeholders from higher education, government, business and other sectors to commit to increasing the work readiness of New England's college graduates for a rapidly changing, increasingly complex economy and society. This report focuses on the collaboration between higher education, regional employers, and policymakers, presenting the Commission's recommendations in the areas of: (1) Effective use of labor market data to inform programs, policy and practice; (2) Re-envisioning advising and career services offered by colleges to better align supply and demand and implement best practices and disruptive approaches; (3) Targeted higher education-industry partnerships; (4) Increased postsecondary opportunities for work-integrated, experiential and cooperative learning (for example, internships, field placements), including policy incentives and student aid programs; (5) In-demand digital skills bundles that include fundamental information technology and coding skills, knowledge of the digital economy, data analytics, cloud computing, technology security, and entrepreneurship or other essential 21st century skills; and (6) Policies related to new credentials, including recognition and aggregation of postsecondary and non-postsecondary training and the work experiences of working adults and veterans.
