Congratulations to the Class of 2021! Now what‪?‬ Where Policy Meets People

    • Politics

It is graduation season and adults from all walks of life are heading into (or back into) the job market with new credentials.  While some are 21 year-olds with four-year undergrad degrees, many more are young people completing high school diplomas after a pause in their education.  Still others are adults completing that post-secondary degree to get ahead or make a new start.  So what skills do you need to succeed in the labor these days? H. Patrick Clancy (https://www.philaworks.org/leadership/) of Philadelphia Works, Inc. (https://www.philaworks.org/) talks stackable credentials and preparing for that pandemic-proof job and Leslie Ballway of Peirce College (https://www.peirce.edu/) shares advice on job search and why we all need to be life-long learners.  Class of 2021 grads Camille, Virgilio, Sam and Nicholas share their educational journeys, hopes and goals for their next steps.
