- rayiner 14y agoIt's disingenuous to say that they're offering to pay to do the training. They're offering to pay for marketing incentives to get people to do STEM. "Microsoft is not simply trying to solve the immediate worker shortage. The software company proposes boosting the H-1B visa fee to $10,000 to raise money for a STEM-version of the Race to the Top federal grant program spurring education reform in schools." $10,000 pays for about one year of K-12 education in the cheapest states, and about 6-7 months in a state like NY.
