New Mexico College Publishes Report to Advance a National Learning and Employment Record for Skills-based Credentialing and Hiring<\/strong><\/a> — from prnewswire.com by Central New Mexico Community College<\/p>\n

Excerpt (emphasis DSC):<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M.<\/span><\/span>,\u00a0Oct. 11, 2022<\/span><\/span>\u00a0\/PRNewswire\/ — In the current job market, applicants are usually asked to provide a broad r\u00e9sum\u00e9 that lists the basics of their qualifications including college degrees and past work experience. It’s an outdated and inefficient system and one that\u00a0Central New Mexico Community<\/span>\u00a0College (CNM) is now helping to improve.<\/p>\n

Thanks to a grant from Walmart, CNM produced a comprehensive report that researches several independent efforts underway in order to build a model for creating a national Learner and Employment Records (LER) infrastructure.<\/strong><\/span> An LER enables the exchange of skills-based digital records that facilitate more efficient pathways from learning to earning.<\/p>\n

An LER is more efficient and secure for both employers and job-seekers because it uses blockchain technology<\/span><\/strong> to provide security, trust, and transparency.<\/p>\n

From DSC:<\/span><\/em>
\nI still am learning about how secure blockchain-based applications are — or aren’t. But this idea of a Learner and Employment Record — which I’ve referred to on this blog as a “cloud-based learner profile” — seems to hold a lot of potential as we move into the future. Especially when the focus is increasingly on which skills a position needs and which skills an individual has.<\/span><\/p>\n
