Abstract	Community colleges and businesses have a shared interest in preparing students and existing workers to be successful in their careers. Community colleges seek to educate and train individuals in their community to have the knowledge and skills for current jobs and long-term career opportunities. Employers seek employees with both job-specific skills and employability skills to meet their current and future business needs. Given these shared interests, community colleges and businesses have a clear opportunity to form close partnerships to shape postsecondary education and workforce training. In this report, the authors detail how community colleges and businesses can form strong partnerships; national trends in employer needs and postsecondary attainment; and policies and practices that form a continuum of education and job training. Furthermore, the authors highlight five examples of innovative postsecondary education and workforce development initiatives from South Carolina; Washington; Miami-Dade County, Florida; Maricopa County, Arizona; and Maryland. These examples highlight how community colleges and businesses can partner directly or through broader partnerships also involving K-12 school systems, four-year colleges and universities, state government agencies, and industry organizations.
