I would have put this in the announcements for this week, but since we're not meeting today, here's webinar information. It will also be recorded. *Empowering Equitable Pathways with Learning and Employment Records * Date: Wednesday, July 13th 2022 Time: 1-2pm (ET) Learning and employment records (LERs) are digital records that document an individual’s employment and learning achievements, including in the workplace, through education and training, community activities, and/or through military service. We can empower people with control over their own data by issuing digital, verifiable credentials that enable flexible curation of equitable learning and career pathways. It is important that LERs use CTDL linked open data to make the meaning and context of the credentials clear, transparent, and easy to understand. Please join us and our presenters, Meena Naik from Jobs for the Future, Brian Tinsley and Kelly Page from Digital Promise, and Deb Everhart from Credential Engine to discuss what’s possible, what’s equitable, and how to make LERs interoperable across data systems so that learners, workers, credential issuers, employers, and our economies and communities can all benefit. *Register for the webinar here <https://www.eventbrite.com/e/empowering-equitable-pathways-with-learning-and-employment-records-webinar-tickets-366046814877>.* Deb ----------------------------------------- Deborah Everhart, Ph.D. Chief Strategy Officer Credential Engine <http://credentialengine.org/> deverhart@credentialengine.org Credential Engine is a non-profit whose mission is to map the credential landscape with clear and consistent information, fueling the creation of resources that empower people to find the pathways that are best for them.
