This podcast features Mike Feerick, Founder and CEO of Alison, discussing the future of education, social entrepreneurship, and global labour markets. He argues that education should be a human right, made universally accessible through digital platforms, and criticises the traditional education industry for restricting knowledge through cost and prestige.

Feerick explains how Alison delivers over 6,000 free courses to 50 million learners using an ad-supported model, while operating as a lean, profitable social enterprise built on automation, data, and a global remote workforce.

He also adds that beyond courses, Alison is creating an empowerment ecosystem, offering psychometric testing, career development tools, a Free LMS for businesses, and a soon to be launched skills-based recruitment service.
