Credentialing Pathways: Challenging the Status Quo

Listen Later

The North American economy has a growing skills gap between skills being demanded by employers and those the workforce can provide. Certification boards are uniquely positioned to champion entry into a field of practice, but first must be prepared to challenge their own structures and processes related to eligibility requirements.

This podcast is a thought-provoking call to action for certification bodies to consider how they:

  1. Can recognize and promote non-traditional routes of entry to a career;
  2. Might leverage their relationships with educational and other institutions to support upskilling/bridging opportunities for faster entry to practice; and
  3. Take into account the barriers within one’s credentialing body that prevent change.
