Our Managing Director, Dan McFadyen and I are excited to be flying out to Atlanta, Georgia to attend the 2022 IMS Digital Credentials Summit, from Monday 28 February to Thursday 3 March 2022. Registration link below and if you're attending, we'd love the opportunity meet up!
As we shift our focus to a Lens on Employers in the next arc of our Stakeholders in the Modern Credential Marketplace series, we start by exploring the collaborations between educators and industry that help set learners up for career success.
In this multi-arc series, we focus on the key Stakeholders in the Modern Credential Marketplace - who they are, what drives them, their challenges and opportunities - Learners, Educators, Employers, Associations and Governments.
Lens on Employers - Educator and Industry Collaborations
Over the past year, we’ve focussed our Lens on Learners: the types of learners, how they learn, and what they want from their education. With our Lens on Educators, we’ve explored what it will take for the education system to effectively bridge the gap between learners and employers. We’ve talked about the move toward digital credentials, the validation and verification of skills, and how employers are adding their own education frameworks internally to acquire skilled talent.
But what’s often missing from the headlines is the way corporations and institutions can, and should work together to streamline the education-to-work ecosystem. As we now turn our Lens on Employers, let's examine the collaborations between educators and industry that may very well change this area for good.
We're excited to be attending the IMS Global 2022 IMS Digital Credentials Summit in Atlanta, Georgia from 28 February to 2 March 2022. This will be the first time in a long while Dan and I are going to meet all global industry experts and though leaders in-person! We can't wait to learn and share what we've been doing with skills recognition infrastructure in Credentialate and openEQUELLA. If you haven’t registered, click here - and if you're attending, we would love to meet up with you there! Connect with us on LinkedIn (links below) and we'll set it up.
