Workforce Partnerships Work Better with Merit
Break Down Silos
Present opportunities for training and employment to qualified talent by connecting data—program qualification criteria, educational credentials, training certificates, and job experience—that resides in multiple systems across the public and private sectors, educational institutions, and NGOs.
Empower Front-line Staff and Talent
With all of their qualifications and learning stored in a single digital wallet, qualified talent can find opportunities faster and securely share credentials with employers. Front-line staff have the visibility they need to better serve both job seekers and employers and are actively involved in the rollout process.
Make Data-driven Decisions
Gain objective reporting on performance outcomes, not just “vanity metrics” like training sessions completed. Measure diverse programs in a consistent way to truly understand what is moving the needle for both employers and talent.
