Our goal is to empower workers seeking better jobs and economic mobility by providing the tools and support to help them change their lives. We've built a worker outreach strategy and product experience that meets the needs of the millions of individuals without a college degree who are skilled through alternative routes (STARs).
What we've accomplished thus far is in great thanks to:

"The SkillUp Coalition, launched in 2020, is meant to help workers leverage their talents and strengths and define their futures through proactive outreach, personalized career exploration, and training and employer connections. Every person has unique gifts and deserves the chance to express them, but the college-for-all mentality has made some believe they can't. Our aim is to break barriers standing in their way."
