Abstract

This chapter defines and examines public private partnerships, often referred to as P3s, between the business sector and education sector. In particular, the focus is on economic and workforce development benefits that ensure the successful connection of these partnerships and the added incentives that aid adult learners in developing new talent and provide opportunities for different career paths. Best practices are discussed through a literature review and information from partnerships that have taken place throughout the United States. Recommendations for future trends and future research are offered.
