When New Jersey students graduate from high school, they need certain career-readiness skills—even if they are going on to higher education before entering the workforce. What are the skills that business looks for in young employees? What knowledge is important for our students to have as they prepare for a career?

On Oct. 13 at 2 p.m., NJSBA’s online radio program, Conversations on New Jersey Education,will feature a discussion on these and other questions with Donna Custard, president of the New Jersey Chamber of Commerce Foundation, and Tyler Seville, associate director, government affairs, for the New Jersey Business and Industry Association. The host will be Ray Pinney, NJSBA’s director of member engagement.
