The educational attainment gap has narrowed but the link between educational outcomes and wages has not improved for largely two decades. This Masterclass will delve into this phenomenon and consider what can be done to change this.

Key discussion points and workshop areas:

  • Making rational decisions on education
  • Be willing to bargain
  • Use your rights and know what is not okay.
  • Course selection – what is trending, where is the better pay for women
  • Is an MBA the answer for many women?
