One more on labor

Another Berkeley favorite, Laura Tyson gets one paragraph right:
Instead, nanodegrees and stackable credentials are likely to gain in importance. German-style apprenticeships combining classroom work and practical work, and enabling participants to earn a salary while learning, could be important solutions even for middle-aged displaced workers. Collaboration between companies and educational institutions, as AT&T (on whose board one of the authors serves), Starbucks, and other firms are showing, can provide workers with the new or enhanced skills that are increasingly needed.
Right, and further one needs to close the field, hire within the employment search network.   So, I want to work a nano-degree on the new flex tube plumbing systems, I can run over to home depot, to do their seminar. 

The meetup at Home Depot is between agents all within the set of employable agents.  Hence, the verification of the meet up is within the semantics of resumes, anonymously collected.  These resumes are digestable by the matching bot, but now priceable in this context. All parties equally aware of skill sets, with a close certainty.

This model i great for employers, they know the quality of the skills data, it is a readable measure.  All agents backed by the secret identity card,  and when personal data is exchanged, the matching bot bows out. If I am a berkeley labor professor, then I want the personal, secure and intelligent cash card in the hands of my agents.  I want that if I am a Thaler fan, or a libertarian or diversiarian.
