Market equilibrium is a state when supply equals demand. For the job market, it’s when we produce graduates/workers with the skills the private sector needs to maintain and grow its business. Wages are stable. Workers have billable skills. Companies can fill its open positions. Governments can consistently grow their regional economies. Educational institutions produce satisfied consumers. It’s a win-win.
