Paperless Pathways Podcast

In this debut episode, host LaShana, STARs Advisory Council Chair and, speaks with Byron, CEO and co-founder of Opportunity@Work, about the origins of the skills-first movement, the Tear the Paper Ceiling campaign, and the creation of the STARs acronym (Skilled Through Alternative Routes). 

They discuss Opportunity@Work’s mission to unlock opportunities for over 70 million skilled workers and how employers can value skills gained through work experience, military service, bootcamps, and on-the-job training, rather than relying solely on college degrees.
