A new report outlines how Idaho LAUNCH is meeting the five pillars of President Donald Trump’s Talent Strategy for America.
We have seen the incredible success of LAUNCH in its first year all across the state!
- 9% increase in enrollment across all institutions, with the Magic Valley experiencing a whopping 25% increase;
- 18% surge in community college enrollment;
- 15% increase in the number of career technical students;
- 15% increase in the number of economically disadvantaged students going on;
- 8% increase in the number of kids taking dual credit, meaning more students than ever before are thinking about college and careers BEFORE going on;
- 16% increase in the number of Hispanic students going on;
- an astounding 19% increase in students with less than a 2.7 GPA going on. These are students who may have never considered pursuing a rewarding, in-demand profession.
Idaho LAUNCH fits perfectly into President Trump’s vision for the American worker. With LAUNCH, Idaho is leading the nation in preparing our young people for rewarding careers in a dynamic workforce environment.
