    Regional Education and Economic Development (REED) Report

    The Complete College Georgia initiative has revealed an alarming statistic: only 17 percent of Georgia’s public high school freshmen will graduate on time from a two- or four-year college or university. In addition, many of our young people are not prepared to join the workforce of tomorrow. To address these issues and positively impact the future of our region, the University of North Georgia established the Regional Education and Economic Development Task Force, a partnership of more than 100 invited business, education, government, and community leaders from a 27-county area of the northeast region of the state. Read the REED Summary Report.
