We’re thrilled to see a legislation removing college degree requirements for #cybersecurity jobs advance in the House. A skills-first approach to hiring will help the U.S. close the talent gap and provide pathways to good paying jobs for more Americans.
Passed 3 bills out of Oversight this afternoon, two of them unanimously! 🙌🇺🇸

IBM has been a leader in skills first hiring, and today over 50% of our U.S. job postings don't require a 4-year college degree. Now, almost 20% of our U.S. hires join without a degree. Thank you @virginiafoxx @BobbyScott for leading this important hearing
Rethinking the definition of success: Nearly two-thirds of Americans aged 25 & older don't possess a bachelor’s degree. Employers are finding that skills-based hiring can broaden their talent pipeline & help them identify qualified workers they would have otherwise overlooked.
