Imagine the Swiss Model Here…
$1.4 BillionThe amount invested by
companies in
apprenticeship if NV
companies spent 1% of
GDP on apprenticeship
$214 MillionThe amount Nevada
might save annually if
2/3 of 11th/12th graders
did apprenticeship
Numbers are calculated from data from the 2014 Census Public Education Finances report, the California Department of Education,
and the Commerce Department Bureau of Economic Analysis

And More Importantly, Imagine:
• 100% of Nevadans being Lifelong Career Ready
• Nevada companies having all the talent needed
• Lower talent import costs
• Improved quality of life, life-span, and overall satisfaction
• Full employment
• Declines in crime and income inequality
• Increased appeal as an investment destination
