Over the last few years, state efforts to remove degree requirements have gone from zero to sixty — with over 21 states now in the midst of efforts to “tear the paper ceiling” and expand opportunity for workers Skilled Through Alternative Routes (STARs).

This previously recorded webinar dives into the work that’s already been done at the state level to remove barriers to employment for STARs, and share how the launch of Opportunity@Work’s STARs Public Sector Hub can support guidance for other states looking to effect similar changes in policy and practice.
