Our team @GuildEducation just wrapped up our annual kickoff, and we're fired up. Here's what we discussed:
155M adults in the US lack a college degree or meaningful credential; 88M of them need formal upskilling or reskilling before they retire.
Here's what you need to know:

The antidote to division isn’t effective persuasion, but a willingness to reconsider your own point of view. It’s much easier said than done...

It's rare to open people's minds by preaching and prosecuting ("I'm right, you're wrong!").
Instead of trying to score points in a debate, treat it like an interview.
Your role is to ask questions that help people consider their own reasons for change.

You don’t learn civics at a coding bootcamp.
It shouldn’t be a choice between obtaining employable skills OR a higher eduction. It should be a question about the best way to get BOTH.

New and devastating data is in, showing that college enrollment for low-income students is down by 29% since the pandemic. This will sadly crush social mobility for a generation if we don’t tackle it quickly:

So humbled and proud of this recognition. However, if COVID-19 has made anything readily apparent, it’s that there is still so much work to be done

Not only is degree inflation potentially discriminatory, but for many roles it’s also myopic. The skills required to compete in the knowledge economy will come from myriad places

Dear employers: stop requiring college degrees in job postings.
It systematically disadvantages those who acquire skills through alternative routes—especially people of color.
There's nothing you learn in college that you can't learn elsewhere.

Requiring universal articulation among institutions with the same accreditor is a great idea, but it will never happen 1/
5 Jun 2020
The average transfer student currently loses 43% of their previously earned credits. This happens even when they switch schools overseen by the same college accreditor.
Here's one proposal to ameliorate this problem that surely needs to be addressed.

They say you can’t fully understand a man until you walk a mile in his shoes. That may be true, but I believe it’s every human’s responsibility to try
