What it is
National nonprofit researching and advocating for skills-first hiring; created the STARs (Skilled Through Alternative Routes) framework covering 70M+ U.S. workers without a bachelor's degree, and runs the 'Tear the Paper Ceiling' campaign.
In plain terms
This nonprofit organization supports workers who built their skills through work experience, apprenticeships, or military service rather than a college degree. You can explore career pathways, read real worker stories, and learn about employers hiring based on skills instead of degrees.
Why I recommend it
If a degree requirement is blocking you, their STARs research gives you language and data to push back.
