6 个月，按需学习，大量节省学习费用

Google recently made a huge announcement that could change the future of work and higher education: It's launching a selection of professional courses that teach candidates how to perform in-demand jobs.

These courses, which the company is calling Google Career Certificates, teach foundational skills that can help job-seekers immediately find employment. However, instead of taking years to finish like a traditional university degree, these courses are designed to be completed in about six months.

"College degrees are out of reach for many Americans, and you shouldn't need a college diploma to have economic security," writes Kent Walker, senior vice president of global affairs at Google. "We need new, accessible job-training solutions--from enhanced vocational programs to online education--to help America recover and rebuild."

Walker then revealed the following on Twitter:

 

"In our own hiring, we will now treat these new career certificates as the equivalent of a four-year degree for related roles."

• 藤校最擅长的人文关怀会包括在里面吗？ 没有的话，为什么藤校这么注重呢？ -希望和兴旺- ♀ (0 bytes) () 08/26/2020 postreply 13:46:14
