Pittsburgh Business Times article by Don Smith, President of RIDC, an AC client, can be read in full here.

We need to build a training system in the context of an overall economic vision and as part of a holistic approach to revitalizing our economy. Mobilizing large-scale workforce retraining as a boost to both workers and companies is both possible and realistic if we adequately incentivize business and local education institutions to take on the creation of demand-driven training programs.
