In this webinar, we discuss persistent gaps in the mobility of skills and education and the future state of recognition. You’ll hear from leaders who are transforming assessment models and processes—and how we understand and recognize skills and credentials—with the aim of improving the labour market integration of internationally educated professionals.

Gain insights into:

  • Shifts happening in how higher education perceives its relevance to the labour market
  • Recognizing learning that occurs beyond the classroom
  • How a greater emphasis on skills assessment and recognition can help to overcome discrimination in hiring
