Curious How We Got Started?
Our Roots: The Future of Rapid Reskilling
SkillUp's Founder, Josh Jarrett, created SkillUp during the height of the 2020 pandemic, aimed to help un- or underemployed individuals find fulfilling jobs. To accomplish this, he asked - What are the right jobs? How do they get there? Where will they gain these new skills? That's where SkillUp's career platform comes in.
