About the 10th International Education and Business Partnership Conference
The 10th International Education Business Partnership Conference program focuses strongly on the increasing interaction between corporate social investment strategies, communities and learning partnership systems and programs in many countries. The common ground between schools, communities and business is becoming better defined as economies and societies become more knowledge-based and business becomes more aware of the need to be learning organizations. At this event, leaders in business, education and government discussed their views on the value and need for partnerships. Guest speakers and workshop presenters shared ideas and best practices exemplifying those partnerships that are meeting the demands of today's changing global society. Cross-cutting conference themes included: - Building and Regenerating Learning Communities
- Developing Skills of the Future Workforce
- Promoting Health and Well-Being of Children and Youth in Education
- The Role of Education in Meeting Global Challenges
- The Next Generation of Leaders: Mobilizing Youth and Young Professionals to Take the Challenge
- The Role of SMEs in Business-Education Partnerships
