Equip Students for an Equitable Future in the Workforce

Original airdate: Thursday, August 25, 2022 at 2:00 pm ET

The Great Resignation, supply chain disruptions, and shifting labor market demands driven by the Covid-19 pandemic have left many critical industries understaffed and many citizens under-employed. Colleges and universities can help equip their learners for the workforce through the use of skills-aligned micro-credentials. In fact, more than 13 million credentials have been issued in more than 160 countries by more than 25,000 issuers.

In this webinar, learn how skills-aligned micro-credentials can help students communicate the employer-valued skills they’ve either already demonstrated or still need to earn to better connect them to jobs.

Our panel of experts will also discuss:

    • How other colleges and universities are instituting modern recognition strategies
    • Strategies around boosting student engagement, retention and outcomes
    • How employers are mitigating bias in the hiring process by evaluating prospective skills, competencies and experiences.
