Building a Talent Strong Texas

Texas has set ambitious goals in the past, and we are not backing away from them — instead, we’re raising the bar. Our new strategic plan, Building a Talent Strong Texas, will focus on three measurable, data-driven goals:

Attainment of Certificates & Degrees

Building a Talent Strong Texas expands attainment to include all working-age Texans. In doing so, we can increase employment opportunities and income for individuals, create a deeper talent pool for employers, and align students’ skills with workforce demands.

TARGET:

  • 60% of Texans ages 25-64 will receive a degree, certificate, or other postsecondary credential of value by 2030.
