Key Takeaway
“In a traditional education and training system, the financial burden is completely borne by the individual, by the worker, whether or not the schooling or the training program delivers outcomes for them. The Career Impact Bond is basically building off of the income share agreement principle, but instead of just looking at the income share agreement as just another consumer finance option, the Career Impact Bond is actually built as a tool for impact.” —Tracy Palandjian, CEO and Co-Founder, Social Finance
In this podcast episode, Social Finance CEO Tracy Palandjian, General Assembly CEO Lisa Lewin, and American Diesel Training Centers CEO Tim Spurlock discuss closing the skills gap and rethinking the way we finance worker training and education to build a more inclusive future of work.
