S1 E11: Scaling Enterprise Lifelong Learning Platforms | Eric Sharp (Degreed)

Eric Sharp grew up with a unique background. With vivid memories of growing up in poverty, he recalls being distinctly inspired towards education when his mother went back to school to be a teacher. She instilled in him curiosity and a desire to learn, which made a big difference in changing his life trajectory. Using this passion, he and his co-founders were motivated to build the vision for a SaaS learning platform called Degreed – enabling learners and businesses to build the skills they need for the future. Today’s sponsor: DevMountain (https://learn.devmountain.com/devmountain-code-story)Linkshttps://degreed.comhttps://degreed.com/eric#/overviewhttps://twitter.com/ericgsharphttps://labs.spotify.com/2014/03/27/spotify-engineering-culture-part-1/Leave us a review on Apple Podcasts! Amazing tools we use: If you want the best publishing platform for your podcast, with amazing support & people – use Transistor.fm.Want to record your remote interviews with class?
