Smart Talks with IBM

NOTE

Empower Skills, Empower Futures

IBM Skills Build demonstrates the critical importance of access to technology skills in a rapidly changing job landscape. By fostering collaborations with educational institutions, nonprofits, and governments, the initiative aims to dismantle barriers and promote inclusivity in the workforce. This strategy not only addresses the digital divide but also cultivates equitable opportunities in the tech industry. The Skills First movement reinforces that success in tech roles does not always necessitate a four-year degree, as evidenced by IBM's commitment to ensuring that at least 50% of job postings do not mandate such qualifications. This approach reflects a significant shift towards valuing skills over traditional educational pathways.
