Work Shift Explainer
New pathways into tech

Exploring new pathways into tech
In this explainer series, we make sense of the fast-moving world of education and training for tech careers—from evolving degree programs to fast-growing apprenticeships. We look at what’s happening, who’s paying, and who benefits.
The reboot in tech training
Many of the jobs in the new tech economy are still being filled like they were in the 1990s. But that's starting to change—and here, we take a look at the new and growing pathways into good tech jobs.
This Work Shift Explainer series on new pathways into tech is based on fresh data analysis and dozens of interviews with leaders in education and tech. Our independent reporting was supported by the Cognizant Foundation.
