An Excerpt From Forbes:

In 2020 Google took action to disrupt the college degree. College can leave students anywhere from $100,000 to $300,000 in debt. It’s true for any form of education and especially film school. This is why Stage 32 is doing the same to offer career certifications to film students at a fraction of the cost.

Over the last 7 years the Stage 32 team spoke with executives from over 100 film commissions, executives from streamers, various guilds and production companies, and film students and graduates - many saddled with enormous student loan debt. They discussed the changing environment of global production and expansion, the dearth of quality people to fill available jobs on set, and the overwhelming need to find skilled workers available around the world available to work right now.

The result of all these conversations led to a solution that teaches below-the-line skills helpful in landing opportunities, post-graduation opportunities to secure work and a focused database accessible by film commissions, streamers, production companies and other organizations that are ready to hire through this portal and have input on the skills required.
