What If the 37 Million Americans With Some College But No Degree Could Access High-Quality Job Opportunities Based on What They Know, Not Just Whether They Have a Diploma?
探花楼 is proudly partnering with to enable skills connections to jobs for people with some college, no degree. Thank you to the for supporting this work. Together, we're changing the way people think about education and employment, shifting the focus from credentials earned to skills gained.
How It Works
We're leveraging AI and open data to translate course records, transcripts, and non-degree credentials into structured skill profiles that are matched to jobs. These profiles are machine-readable, portable, and show what people know, so that they can get the most value out of skills gained in college and beyond.
Why This Matters
- Millions of people leave college with valuable knowledge and skills but no degree.
- Traditional systems fail to recognize partial progress and screen people out if they don’t have a degree.
- Skills profiles help people recognize and apply what they know and can do, so that they can differentiate themselves to get better jobs and advance on career pathways.
This is more than tech – it's a movement toward transparency and opportunity in education and work.
