How to Transform Higher Ed to Create Workforce Readiness

Dr. Drumm McNaughton interviews Ryan Craig, a Forbes journalist, author, Managing Director at Achieve Partners, and leader in the movement to establish an apprenticeship system for training and hiring employees.

McNaughton and Craig discuss why traditional higher education will decline unless dramatic transformation is made to create workforce readiness. 

Podcast Highlights

• The gap between the traditional four-year degree and current workplace demands will continue to grow unless a drastic transformation is made.
• Alternative pathways to credentialing, such as apprenticeships, will increasingly supplement—and even surpass—higher ed’s role of providing social and economic mobility.
• Major employers no longer list having a college degree among their required skills in job positions.
