Education Design Lab’s XCredit initiative is about validating and credentialing an individual’s existing skills and making them visible to employers seeking skilled talent. 

It’s ultimately about helping individuals with valuable skills gain access to better-paying jobs.

Through this military pilot, we are offering participants an opportunity to validate their existing 21st century or “soft” skills, earn credentials, and signal their skills to prospective employers.

XCredit is inviting military connected jobseekers who are actively exploring and pursuing career opportunities in the civilian workforce within the next 3 months to participate in our pilot program. 

We view you as the experts and highly value your feedback. We want to learn from you and  understand your needs and pain points. This will help us determine what improvements need to be made to better serve you. 

If you have questions about whether you qualify for participation, please contact us at xcredit@eddesignlab.org

• The pilot is being conducted online through the summer of 2023.

• We will ask you to sign up into the XCredit ecosystem and take assessments (15-20 mins each)

• To earn a credential, you need to take 4 assessments (15-20 mins each) and show mastery of each. 

• If you show mastery of the skills, you will receive a credential that you can share with current and future employers, as well as on social media and other talent marketplaces.

• We will compensate you for sharing your experience with us through surveys, and potentially focus groups and interviews
