Particularly in Northern Indiana we see a lot of opportunities in advance manufacturing and health care and all those are becoming much more technology dependent. So it behooves those students to be very technology capable.

It speaks of opportunity. We can have good-paying jobs if we prepare the Hoosiers (for them).

We used to earn $1.60 for every dollar. It took more than a few years for us to get here, and it's going to get a few years to get back to a dollar.

Many employers prefer to post jobs on their own Web sites, in newspapers or in trade journals. We have a large pool of candidates looking for jobs, and it is imperative that we list as many jobs as we can on this Web site, while also providing efficient search tools. This will enhance the prospects of both job seekers and employers.

What we're trying to do is prepare adults and raise the level of our high school skills.

Indiana has gained 36,600 jobs over the past year; however, we still remain 54,700 jobs shy of our peak reached in May of 2000.
