Q: Code to Live By A100 was one of the sponsors of the skills challenge. A gentleman on its website says, "Connecti- cut can fund startups; we can offer them places to work. We can do all that, but if we don't have developers, we're going nowhere." Does that mean we need more private support to enact more developers? A: There is a role that both the private and public sectors need to play. What will work best is when they are working together in partnerships. Programs like P-Tech or CT- ECO, where companies are working with public schools to support students that want to get into coding, are great examples where both private-and public-sector resources are brought to the table to maximize the benefit. The private sector can help meet the cur- rent need. which is in their enlightened self interest, while at the same time informing the public sector, both the education system and training programs, about what skills and talents will be required in the future. n Q&A: Carlson
