Services designed to build potential
The service listed below may not seem to fit together, but they are part of a strategy I have that will grow over time and these along with others will produce synergy to help fulfill my Vision in harmony with my Values.
Works in Progress
I am mostly doing research into data schemas and open standards. Many notable public figures are advocating for skills-based hiring, development, and advancement. However, much of the technology to accomplish the vision of the future is either fairly new or still under development.
Learning & Employment Records
The technology for LERs is still fairly limited. I am engaged in research to find the most viable candidate to build services with.
Notary Services
I am also researching electronic notary services. I am not certain that the notary industry has thought about the implications of W3C Verifiable Credentials.
Web Development
This is not a primary service that I offer, but I have done my own web development and will work for others as I have availability.
Workgroups
The best way I have found to learn more and contribute to advancing skills-based hiring is to volunteer my time on workgroups.
Open Skills Network
Many HR Tech vendors are incorporating “skills” that are nothing more than keywords. A much better alternative is Rich Skill Descriptors.
HR Open Standards
The Open Recruiting group is nearing completion of Release Candidate for their Learning & Employment Record Resume Standard.
T3 Innovation Network
Their newest project is “Experience You.” The goal of the project is to use artificial intelligence to assist workers to build a history of the skills that they have already obtained
Education Design Lab
Their XCredit project is not a workgroup, but is something I am investigating as a typical user. They offer validation of 21st Century Skills and award open badges compatible with LERs.
