L/Earner Voice

Learner and Earner voice is at the heart of The Attainment Network’s mission to align education and workforce systems. Across The Attainment Network’s place-based and consulting work, development of career pathways is grounded in industry context and the learner/earner perspective. We recognize learner and earner perspectives as a critical input for redesigning education-to-workforce systems and a legitimate and necessary source of qualitative data to inform decision-making in state policymaking and local implementation. 

"My takeaway was that students have many lived experiences that are difficult to articulate on a resume but are foundational to who they are and what they can bring to their careers.”

INCORPORATING LEARNER VOICE

At The Attainment Network, we envision innovative education-to-workforce systems that develop a diverse and talented workforce. We believe in supporting learners and preparing them for future jobs, so they are able to meet economic demands and sustain thriving communities. 



Prioritizing and sustaining focus on the learner’s experiences is a critical component of the work needed to erase persistent and pervasive equity gaps, expand opportunities for learners, and meet the economic demands for a highly skilled and educated workforce system of the future.
