Aligning with Employers to Drive Career Success for Learners

According to a recent survey, 95% of employers said a résumé listing microcredentials benefited the candidate, and more than 73% reported hires with alternative credentials helped their organization fill an existing skill gap and improved the quality of their workforce.

That said, not every microcredential carries the recognition and credibility learners need to progress in their careers. Only those training programs that effectively align their coursework with the evolving needs of employers and communicate the value of their certifications will earn the legitimacy they need to grow.

In this panel discussion, we’ll hear from leading voices in the space on:

• How the ways employers find and develop talent has evolved, and how it will continue to evolve in the future
• What hiring managers look for in an a resume to confirm skill- and experience-based competencies

• Ways trainers and educators can measure learners’ positive career outcomes and use that message to differentiate their program in the marketplace
