<br />KEEPING CALIFORNIA COMPETITIVE, CREATING OPPORTUNITY <br /> <br />California's EDGE Campaign <br /> <br />California's EDGE* Campaign is a non-partisan coalition of groups with diverse and even divergent outlooks but united in <br />the belief that: <br /> <br />. California's future economic growth rests in large measure on the skill base of its workers. <br /> <br />. The state and its industrial leadership are now at serious risk of losing the competitive advantage of a highly trained <br />workforce and lag other states in responding to this challenge. <br /> <br />. The Governor and Legislature must lead a strategic effort to forge the state's impressive education and training <br />infrastructure into an integrated system of talent development that addresses the needs of all California workers <br />and employers_ <br /> <br />. In the absence of this kind of leadership, California's future is uncertain. Both employers and workers face the threat <br />of economic decline. <br /> <br />Lead endorsers include: <br />.
