American jobs are demanding an ever more highly-skilled workforce. This week we continue with our series on the value of a college degree by exploring what kinds of post-secondary education are necessary in the 21st-century economy. American RadioWorks Producer Emily Hanford shares excerpts of her interview with Tony Carnevale, director of the Georgetown University Center on Education and the Workforce.

Hanford's documentary, "Some College, No Degree: Why So Many Americans Drop Out of College, and What to Do About It" comes out this fall. You'll be able to find it on our web site, americanradioworks.org
