Abstract	The Montana Department of Labor and Industry (MTDLI) recently published a statewide college report entitled "Meeting State Worker Demand: A Report on the Labor Market Outcomes for Montana Colleges," in collaboration with the Office of the Commissioner of Higher Education (OCHE). The report seeks to determine if there are enough students graduating in the right fields to meet Montana's workforce needs now and in the future. It compares the workforce supply being developed in Montana's colleges to expected future employment needs and analyzes workforce outcomes for Montana college graduates. Since the statewide college report was published in May 2017, Montana educators, students, businesses, and policymakers have been using this data to successfully guide workforce development efforts in the state, and to develop new opportunities for cooperation between colleges and businesses. This report is a case study of how Montana has set an example for other states by not just "understanding" its workforce programs, but using this data to drive policy change within the government, postsecondary institutions, and the business community. [This report was prepared with the Montana Department of Labor & Industry.] (ERIC).
