Re: [MTC Global] [Weekend Big Discussion-I] Rise of the credentials

May be they are looking for how clever we are to obtain what is very small / tiny to get larger things achieved...!! 

Its more or less like what Americans usually prefer in education for offering a job, they generally prefer the skills not the education. If at all someone who has appropriate education but skills irrelevant to the education, the employer prefers skills than his education and ultimately the candidate ends up getting a job relevant to his skill and potentials not to his education. 

For eg. lets take any such candidates who are successful or at least happy in their jobs, might not have any logic related to his job, but he is a hardcore skilled person on it. But, in the long run this kind of tendency to choose skilled rather than educated would lose the potential growth of the business about which they are ignorant today.

Growth in credentials is challenging long-held notions about the value of a traditional degree. Employers, job seekers and students are increasingly recognizing the value of a micro-credential, such as a nano-degree from Udacity, a specialization from Coursera or an e-portfolio on LinkedIn. If employers don't need us to source talent, what will that mean? How will that impact demand, reputation and focus?
