  25. Why Stackable Credentials? Students have ability to earn and learn by acquiring shorter term credentials with clear labor market value even as they continue to build on these to access more advanced jobs and higher wages. Fits with the real life situations of dislocated workers. Motivates students to persist/complete. Aligns with employer needs. Facilitates student transfer and alleviates need to “start from scratch. Accelerates return into the labor force.

  26. What are Stackable Credentials?

  27. Innovative Strategies Using real-time labor market information to align credentials and pathways to regional labor market demand. Mapping clear, transparent pathways. Building capacity of counselors and advisors to help workers navigate pathways. Developing a “core” or “hub and spoke” model that enables workers to easily move across occupations without losing credit and time. Aligning industry-recognized credentials, registered apprenticeships and work-based learning with academic programs of study.
