One of our Tech Equity Working Group partners, P33 Chicago, recently released their first-ever Tech Apprentice Annual Report from learnings their team collated upon organizing a group of 40 committed employers within the tech space to implement a grant into careers for Chicagoans from non-traditional backgrounds. #TEWG In a world where technology skills have a mere 2-3 year half-life, Chicago's workforce system is stepping up to the challenge. While the path to sustainable scale for tech apprenticeships remains complex, P33 believes that simplicity is on the horizon. The journey may not be straightforward, but the destination of widespread, impactful tech apprenticeships is drawing nearer with each passing day.

CONTROVERSIAL OPINION: the “VC is an apprenticeship model” trope is a lazy excuse not to train junior VCs. There is this idea in the industry that the way to learn VC is simply by working with more experienced VCs and learning through observation. The implication is that classroom training is unnecessary and a waste of time. This is false. There are two types of knowledge in VC: 1. Knowledge Learned from Experience 2. Knowledge Learned from Practice When people say “VC is an apprenticeship model,” they refer to Knowledge Learned From Experience. For example, knowing what qualities to look for in a founder can only be honed through lots of time spent with a more senior VC who has been evaluating founders for a long time. However, understanding the concepts in a term sheet is something ANYONE can learn without spending ANY time with a more senior VC. It is Knowledge Learned From Practice. The same goes for modeling cap tables, benchmarking metrics, running cohort analyses, valuing companies, understanding how boards work, etc. You can learn these skills by yourself in a classroom. When I hire junior VCs, I want them to start day one, having ALREADY mastered the VC Knowledge Learned from Practice (see my prior post on the Big 13). That way, they can be productive immediately, and we can focus our time on Knowledge Learned from Experience. This is a more efficient use of my time and theirs. Disagree?
