Arizona’s Credential Gap | Mesa News
Description
Arizona’s education landscape is hitting a snag: while over half of working adults now hold credentials beyond high school—a key goal of reaching 60% by 2030—college enrollment is plummeting across the state. Since 2019, 12 out of 15 counties saw drops, with four falling 10% or more, and even major cities like the Valley are seeing declines. This creates a troubling paradox: more people are credentialed, but fewer young adults are entering college, threatening Arizona’s long-term workforce competitiveness and economic momentum.
