Google made waves recently by announcing its new program, “Google Career Certificates,” a collection of courses designed to help participants get qualifications in high-paying, high-growth job fields without attending university.
The courses should take about six months to complete, and will cost a fraction of a traditional college education.
Last week I described this as “Google’s plan to disrupt the college degree.”
The response was huge. The article has been shared thousands of times and has prompted thousands of comments. Additionally, tons of people have reached out to me personally to share their thoughts.
