'...When a college degree becomes a box-checking, bureaucratic exercise, it unnecessarily places a barrier between skilled workers seeking better jobs and employers in need of their talents.' | Ryan Roslansky and Byron Auguste for CNN Business Perspectives

Editor’s Note: Ryan Roslansky is CEO of LinkedIn. Byron Auguste is CEO of Opportunity@Work. The opinions expressed in this commentary are their own.

These are the 70 million workers who are skilled through alternative routes, such as community college, military service, workforce training programs, skills bootcamps and learning on the job – rather than through a bachelor’s degree. LinkedIn data suggests that certain industries – like professional services, finance and tech – are some of the hardest sectors for workers without bachelor’s degrees to break into.
