ABC News' Mary Bruce reports:
In his weekly address, President Obama touted the work that his administration is doing to boost job training and highlighted the importance of partnering with the private sector to increase hiring.
?Government is not ? and should not be ? the main engine of job-creation in this country," he said. "That?s the role of the private sector. But one thing government can do is partner with the private sector to make sure that every worker has the necessary skills for the jobs they?re applying for.?
The president also highlighted the announcement he made Wednesday in a speech at Northern Virginia Community College, where he unveiled a series of new commitments by the manufacturing industry and colleges aimed at providing half a million community college students with industry-recognized credentials.
?If you?re a company that?s hiring, you?ll know that anyone who has this degree has the skills you?re looking for," he said. "If you?re a student considering community college, you?ll know that your diploma will give you a leg up in the job market.?
On Monday, the president plans to travel to North Carolina to hear recommendations from his Jobs Council and to�?talk about additional steps we can take to spur private sector hiring in the short-term and ensure our workers have the skills and training they need in this economy.?
