Our Work
The U.S. Chamber works with stakeholders in business, government, and academia to build and sustain a 21st-century workforce that can compete in the global economy. It begins with a strong K-12 education system that prepares people for good jobs and bright futures. We champion high standards, accountability for the academic achievement of all children, and choices for students and families. We are focused on improving post-secondary education and ensuring what is taught in classrooms and on campuses aligns with industry needs and the jobs of today and tomorrow.
