Reskilling the Workforce: Training Underskilled Individuals toward Sustainable Incomes

    The Innovation and Entrepreneurship institute

    Under-resourced communities in the U.S. face systemic barriers to learning, mobility, and progress. Core problems impeding effective workforce development include a widening skills gap, deteriorating job quality, and a lack of collaboration between players in the labor market. With an unprecedented digital disruption and adoption caused by COVID-19 comes a new opportunity to radically change the lives of millions of Americans.

    We are going to train unutilized workers in the North Philadelphia area. Workers in that area tend to be black, brown, and people of color; they typically are uncertified and non-degreed.

    We want workers to rapidly attain new and more relevant skills to their current workplace -- and their next one. Our goal is to rapidly train these individuals for sustainable wage jobs.
