SXSW 2022
Mobility for All: Indiana Achievement Wallet
Description:
By building an ecosystem of employers, educational providers, and service providers, the Indiana Achievement Wallet pilot encourages and supports frictionless, lifelong learning pathways for learner-workers in Indiana and beyond. This ecosystem will increase social and economic mobility for underrepresented populations across the state and will change the way education institutions and employers meaningfully value prior learning to create equitable pathways from experience to training to career. This project is led by a cross-sector coalition including IBM, WGU, and the National Student Clearinghouse.
