Key Initiative

Last Mile Report

The Digital Credentials Consortium is a group of colleges and universities across North America and Europe that are working together to build a shared infrastructure for the digital issuing, sharing, and verifying of academic credentials. The Last Mile research identifies barriers to adoption of digital academic credentials in education and employment. The project builds on interviews with key stakeholders from technology, employers, HR software, and universities. It identifies structural challenges and possible strategies to address them. The report can inform the work of policymakers and funders, and it benefits the larger community of organizations trying to develop solutions that improve education-to-employment pathways.
