In his State of the Union address last month, President Obama made clear his commitment to getting Americans back to work. As he put it, job creation is "our No. 1 focus for 2010." That is why we must act swiftly to ensure that American workers have the education, skills training, and supports they need to compete and thrive in a 21st century global job market, and that is why we have convened this hearing today to examine the future of the Workforce Investment Act, as we move toward reauthorization of this important program.

This thought-provoking volume brings together scholars and system leaders to analyze some of the most pressing and complex issues now facing higher education systems and society. Higher Education Systems 3.0 focuses on the remaking of higher education coordination in an era of increased accountability, greater calls for productivity, and intensifying fiscal austerity. System heads have been identifying ways to harness the collective contributions of their various institutions to benefit the students, communities, and other stakeholders that they serve. The contributors explore the recent dynamics of higher education systems, focusing particularly on how systems are now working to improve their effectiveness in educating students and improving our communities, while also identifying new means for operating more efficiently. This enhanced collaboration, or systemness, is the key aspect of version 3.0.
