FAQs
General Questions
Here are answers to some of the most common questions we hear.
What is the benefit of earn and learn?
Learn new skills – for free – as a step to promotion and higher pay; all while earning a paycheck. These hand-picked jobs from trusted employer partners pay a living wage, have good benefits, and support your career growth in an in-demand industry.
What do you mean by a living wage?
A living wage varies by location and enables employees to pay for basic needs, including adequate shelter, food, and other necessities. Economists suggest it should be enough to ensure that no more than 30% of this income gets spent on housing. As such, living wages are often substantially higher than the legal minimum wage.
Should I apply for an earn-and-learn job or a training program?
It is a personal decision whether to take a training program or learn new skills on the job. If you learn better by doing or do not like school, an earn and learn job may be a better choice. Getting an entry-level job in a growing industry that you find interesting also enables you to more quickly build your network, which is how most people get their next job.
For those who already have a job or prefer to gain specific skills that will increase their ability to get a higher-paying job sooner, SkillUp’s training catalog spans careers in business, technology, healthcare, skilled trades, and supply chain.
Do I need work experience or a resume to apply for these jobs?
Though some jobs require 1-2 years of experience, many of our employer partners offer jobs that require no experience at all. If you are asked for a resume as part of the application process, there are people able to guide you as you create or update a resume to showcase the value you can bring to the job. Our partner, Goodwill.org, has helpful tips and career centers for 1-on-1 assistance.
Who is this website for?
SkillUp was designed to serve people from underrepresented backgrounds who do not typically have a college degree. If that describes you, our employer partners are looking to nurture talent like yours because they recognize your potential and the value your perspective can bring to their organizations.
