Five Cabinet Nominees can affect the education Control of school-related issues is spread across a number governmental agencies, and President-elect Donald Trump’s nominee for U.S. education secretary, Betsy DeVos, won’t be the only member of his cabinet to have a say in student-facing policy. The Michigan philanthropist and billionaire will face her Senate confirmation hearing next Tuesday, and many of her fellow nominees already have education records of their own. We examined five of the potential cabinet members who could influence America’s schools and what their past actions might mean for students around the country. Jeff Sessions - Nominated for U.S. Attorney General Some civil-rights groups are concerned the Education Department’s Office for Civil Rights could be moved to the Department of Justice, meaning Jeff Sessions—who has an incredibly controversial record on civil rights—would oversee it. Sessions also harshly criticized the Individuals With Disabilities in Education Act (IDEA) in a 2000 speech on the Senate floor.

Discover Your Passion: Volunteering Opens Your Eyes to New Career Paths “Jambo! Jambo!” yells a young girl, greeting us with the traditional Swahili welcome. “Opportunity isn’t a chance, it’s a choice,” said Mia Farrow during a Me to We presentation to hundreds of youth from across North America, including myself. Me to We, a social enterprise created through the charity Free The Children, offers youth volunteer trips to Kenya, Ghana, Nicaragua, Ecuador, India and Arizona. I met Rebecca when we set out to collect water for a local village. I began the trip unsure if I would even attend university the following year, but the afternoon I spent with Rebecca and her family gave me the drive and passion I needed to make the decision to study journalism. Jenny Dadswell, a fellow volunteer, was also influenced by her experience in Kenya. Mallory Hilkewich, Me to We’s Kenya manager of leadership, has seen how these trips completely change the participants’ view of the world.

future of public education It’s shaping up to be a contentious year on the education beat, fueled in part by Donald Trump’s upset victory in the presidential election. For starters, in the weeks and months since his election, his campaign call for expanding school choice has sparked widespread discussion and debate. And while federal policy is often a slow-moving train, it wouldn’t be difficult for the president-elect and the GOP-led Congress to change tracks on many key initiatives enacted by the Obama administration, affecting everything from the recent rewrite of the No Child Left Behind Act to school-lunch menus and oversight of for-profit colleges. It appears unlikely that President-elect Donald Trump can convince Congress—even a Republican-controlled Congress—to shell out $20 billion for school choice, as he promised during his campaign. But while school choice is getting plenty of attention as a possible policy development, the U.S. Rules for the Rewrite of the Federal K-12 Law School Lunch Campus Climate

Stop Stressing and Talk to a Career counselor Each and every one of us is a mixing bowl of potential, filled with individual talents and skills, dreams and desires, goals and an eagerness to accomplish something. But how do we blend all those ingredients together to end up with a career we excel at and enjoy? This question, and the adventure we undertake when we answer it, can arise at any point in a person’s life, but it begins for most when they are entering their senior years of high school.

Logistics supervision E-commerce logistics providers and operators have urged the government not to regulate price control on delivery charges for online shopping, saying that the logistics service industry is competitive.

Read on to learn how to build an eye-catching and effective resume. Resume Content Many students fear that lack of work experience will make their resumes look insufficient or unimpressive, and they resort to 'padding' their resumes to fill blank space.

you can see ‘demonetize’ logistics biz Panaji: Though the demonetization benefits are debatable, Prime Minister Narendra Modi's surprise move on November 8 to withdraw high denomination notes has come as a boon to a Panaji-based startup, Numadic. Numadic has developed a digital platform for transportation companies and fleet operators that simplifies and even eliminates cash transactions. The six-month old startup has already obtained financial support from foreign investors through an initial round of funding as it tries to disrupt the logistics sector. While cash shortage woes plague everyone, very little attention has been given to the country's massive logistics and trucking industry, whose survival depends on cash. Asked for the inspiration behind the startup, co-founder and chief executive officer Luke Sequeira quotes Peter Drucker. The company already boasts of Essar Oil as a client along with GMI Zarhak, ALF Engineering, Hidedesign and Globe Transport Corporation among others.

40 Questions to Ask in an Informational Interview Knowing networking is critical to their search, most job hunters work hard to arrange face-to-face meetings with contacts.

Federal IT Investment Plans United States government agencies will continue to invest hefty sums in cloud computing technology over the next five years. After that period, spending on cloud is likely to moderate, but the amount of investing will remain at impressive levels. Cloud computing is far from mature within the federal government, but it has reached a point at which it is a mainstream component of government IT resources -- a development recently recognized in several forums. "Policy imperatives from the White House, legislative pressure from Congress, and mounting needs for innovation, agility and cost reduction have motivated agencies to expand their use of cloud solutions," said Alex Rossino, senior principal analyst at Deltek, in a federal information technology update last month. There has been significant progress in federal cloud adoption, noted immixGroup, at its Government IT Sales Summit last month. Cloud Adoption Advances The U.S. However, "defense agencies are not limited just to milCloud.
