Job training is supposed to open doors, but for too many Georgians, it doesn’t. In this episode, Nikki breaks down why completing a training program doesn’t always lead to a job, a raise, or long-term stability. From programs that aren’t aligned with employer needs to barriers like childcare, transportation, and access in rural counties, she explains where the system is falling short and who is paying the price. Drawing from her lived experience and work supporting small businesses and workers across Georgia, Nikki outlines what effective job training should look like and why the Labor Commissioner must play a stronger role in connecting training to real jobs in all 159 counties.
