Education vs work

Paywalled education filters out talent before hiring begins. Venkata Pagadala, AI Product Manager for Search at AT&T, argues that financial barriers to learning hide capable candidates from employers. He defines work as a profit-sharing exchange of human time and skills, and education as a separate good that money should not restrict. He makes the case for open-access education as a talent-sourcing strategy, because a public knowledge base widens the candidate pool and lets business owners hire the right person.
