On October 2, 2006, The Conference Board, an organization of American businesses, released a survey entitled "Are They Really Ready for Work? The report, which was based on responses from 431 employers, hardly gives a ringing endorsement of our educational system. Only 10 percent of the employers said that they find graduates of 2-year colleges "excellent" in term of their overall preparation for work and only 24 percent rated graduates of 4-year colleges as "excellent."
More than a quarter with 4-year degrees are rated as "deficient" with regard to their ability to write and understand written material.
