What is New Collar
IBM’s New Collar initiative focuses on improving access to opportunities for people, addressing the industry skills gap in a fast-paced technology world. IBM understands that hiring good talent does not just mean hiring someone with a diploma. It is about having the right skills, practical experience, and the determination to succeed.
“ We must take big and bold steps to expand access to digital skills and employment opportunities so that more people can take advantage of the digital economy regardless of their background. ”
