Bernard Marr's Future of Business & Technology Podcast

The world of work is evolving and raises the question of whether traditional degrees are still valuable to employers. Companies such as Accenture, IBM, and the US government have relaxed or removed degree requirements, leading to debates on whether this signals the decline of traditional education or is just a short-term reaction to disruptive factors like the pandemic and skills crisis. To discuss this topic, I am joined by Jeff Maggioncalda, CEO, Coursera.
