The Social Finance Institute, Economic Mobility, Education
What does it mean to engage, upskill, and empower the workforce while at the same time ensuring equitable access and participation? Social Finance CEO and Co-Founder Tracy Palandjian moderated a conversation between two female founders—Rachel Romer Carlson, CEO and Co-Founder of Guild Education, and Carolyn Childers, CEO and Co-Founder of Chief—that sought to answer this question. The session focused on opportunities for tech platforms to deliver critical skills-based education, as well as avenues for mentoring, coaching, and creating the kinds of networking connections that lead to upward mobility and job success.
