About this episode
As we continue our series about alternative pathways into well-paying careers, Amy Volz , head of workforce innovation at Trane Technologies, a heating, ventilation, and air conditioning and refrigeration systems company with a focus on climate and sustainability, and Ebony Thomas , managing partner at Grads of Life, a nonprofit that connects top employers with people in the talent pool those employers might have otherwise missed, talk about the proactive steps some employers have taken to embrace candidates who have skills earned through boot camps and other micro-credentialing programs despite no college degree. Support of WNYC’s coverage of economic mobility and opportunity is provided in part by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.
