Outcomes for Opportunity (O4O)

Jobs for the Future (JFF) and Google.org established the Outcomes for Opportunity (O4O) initiative to enable workforce development boards and nonprofit job training providers to make better use of outcomes data.  The two-year pilot program enables workforce development boards and nonprofit job training providers to make better use of outcomes data. The initiative will  increase the availability, accessibility, aggregation, and analysis of data and information as a means of improving economic opportunity for workers nationwide. This people-centric approach will enable workforce professionals to put user needs at the center of data collection, product development, and system design to ultimately result in co-created data products that solve universal problems for the workforce development and job training field.

Partners include:  JFF, Google.org, Brighthive, National  Association of Workforce Boards
