There are a surging number of exciting, good paying jobs in today’s tech industry that do not require a traditional college degree.
These roles are in some of the technology industry's fastest growing fields - from cybersecurity and cloud computing to cognitive business and digital design. What they require instead is the right mix of in-demand skill sets. Those skills can be learned through 21st century vocational training, innovative public education programs like P-TECH, which IBM pioneered, coding camps, professional programs, like the IBM New Collar Certificate Program.
The IBM New Collar Certificate Program is an end-to-end program designed to create a pre-evaluated, pre-trained “ready to work” talent pool based on IBM’s unique method:
1) Verify their ability to understand and apply their job knowledge on the job.
2) Help employers select individuals for their organizations who have the best chance of success.
With our emphasis on new collar jobs, IBM is working to make the IT industry more inclusive, and we are calling on policy makers worldwide to create more pathways for students and mid-career professionals to build new collar career skills. Visit http://ibm.com/newcollar to learn more.
