Summary

In this episode of Statehouse Spotlights, host Ashley Mullins explores Florida’s evolving approach to strengthening pathways that connect students from high school to postsecondary education, careers and long-term economic opportunity. Ashley is joined by Nathan Hoffman, Senior Legislative Director at ExcelinEd in Action and Director at the Foundation for Florida’s Future, to discuss the policy priorities shaping Florida’s higher education and workforce agenda this legislative session.  As lawmakers consider a broad slate of proposals, Florida is placing increased emphasis on return-on-investment accountability, workforce alignment and transparency across education systems. The conversation highlights how policymakers are working to ensure college programs and credentials are connected to real labor market demand and that students and families have access to clearer information about outcomes, costs and career opportunities.  As Florida’s legislative session enters its final stretch, this episode offers insight into how policymakers are working to build stronger connections between education and the workforce—and what other states can learn from Florida’s efforts to improve postsecondary outcomes for students and families.  Remember to join the conversation on social media.    ExcelinEd in Action @excelinaction - Bluesky Profile   ExcelinEd in Action (@ExcelinAction) / X (twitter.com)     ExcelinEd in Action (@excelinedinaction) • Instagram    ExcelinEd in Action on  Facebook   Hosted on Acast.
