The Skills Shift

Connect the Pieces

the learning gold rush →Stake  support3 Years AgoTODAY

A massive shift in the demand for skills is upon us. Half of all employees will need to learn new skills by 2025 as demand moves from physical and cognitive to technical and social/emotional. We need equitable, interoperable systems built to inform and empower the individual.

Studies of job descriptions show that technology is increasing the pace of change at an accelerating rate across industries. Hiring systems that don’t connect to education and training will leave workers and learners in the dust. We need Hire Standards!

Open Data Standards
for Hiring AND Advancement

A commitment to open standards can dramatically improve how job seekers, employers, and talent providers collaborate and communicate.

THE BENEFITS
of open standards

Employers are well-positioned to influence the economic mobility of their current and future employees with a commitment to open standards.

This commitment can lead to HR innovation, better prepared training partners, and public policy for  infrastructure that prioritizes workers’ needs.

          empower INDIVIDUALS TO:

          • Translate their proven abilities to new roles through portable records
          • Access details about increasingly dynamic hiring requirements
          • Discover and choose pathways towards advancement
          • Get intelligent recommendations for relevant opportunities
          • Experience a more equitable hiring process
          • Feel rewarded for learning new skills

          “Traditional hiring processes too often exclude job candidates that have the skills and experiences needed to thrive in an increasingly global economy. A skills-based talent marketplace would open up opportunities for workers and learners without degrees and enable employers to source talent equitably from a larger, more diverse pool of candidates."
