Reframing the Conversation Around Apprenticeship Degrees and Higher Ed

In this episode of Apprenticeship 2.0, Joe and Kiko chat with Kelly Field, freelance journalist and author of The Slow Rise of the Apprentice Degree; Ryan Craig, Managing Director at Achieve Partners; and Dr. Pam Eddinger, President of Bunker Hill Community College in Massachusetts. Together, they discuss the impetus behind Kelly's article, the National Center for the Apprenticeship Degree's enrollment goal, funding at the federal and state levels, whether apprenticeship degrees dilute traditional degrees, why teacher apprenticeship degrees have seen such success, why community colleges—not four-year institutions—are leading the way in apprenticeship degrees, and much more.   Read Kelly's article, The Slow Rise of the Apprentice Degree in the Chronicle of Higher Education.   Music by Evgeny Bardyuzha from Pixabay.
