The skills gap is not just an employer engagement problem, it’s also a technology problem.
When it comes to data and technology innovation, the education and workforce space is ripe for major advancement and transformation. However, the current landscape is not poised to optimize the technology solutions available to it in large part because of data silos, fragmentation, and lack of standardization across key stakeholders in the talent marketplace.
Together, we are building the technology infrastructure to allow employers to signal the skills they need, for learners to signal what they can do, and for educators to signal what people are being trained and educated to do.
Phase Two
Lumina Foundation is joined by Walmart in supporting Phase Two of the T3 Innovation Network, announced via press release in December 2018.
The focus of Phase Two is implementing a series of ten pilot projects, outlined in the Phase One report, that will help us build the technology infrastructure and data/system standards we need to modernize the U.S. talent marketplace by aligning learner, education, and workforce data.
Areas of Focus
The ten pilot projects are organized into four specific areas of focus.
