#169 - New Models to Connect Talent and Training

In this week's episode, we talk to Beam's CEO, Alex Stephany, about crowdfunding for social good, and the importance of grit, alongside training, education and support networks. Beam is the world’s first crowdfunding platform that helps people from disadvantaged backgrounds train up and get into rewarding work. We also run the first of our FE features where we chat VR for teacher observation, the skills priority programme in Wales, and more.
