Ep. 23: The Push for a Learner Record System

The pandemic has brought new urgency to the creation of a learner record system, which could help students more smoothly transfer between colleges and find a job. We spoke with Scott Cheney, the CEO of Credential Engine, to hear about the potential for such a system, as well as how his organization is seeking to bring transparency to credentials while creating a marketplace for them. Also featured in this episode is Kendall Bailey, who leads SEI Labs. She spoke about how interoperable learner records could improve equity by helping students more efficiently bridge the gap between postsecondary education and the workforce.
