Closing the skills gap means training workers for the jobs employers need to fill. One way to do that is something called Career Tech Education, or CTE. But channeling students into what used to be called vocational education means breaking the "bachelor's degree or bust" mindset. Not everyone has to get a college degree to find a fulfillig career. A documentary airing tonight on WVIZ/PBS "The Career Path Less Taken," examines Career Tech Education in Ohio. We'll meet with the filmmaker. Later, how hospitals are banding together to help save lives with the anti-overdose drug naloxone. Finally, a preview as the Browns prepare for a season of high expectations, beginning with Sunday's season opener.
