If you care about your employees, you should let them own their career credentials
Financial capital and human capital are the key factors in the growth of the global economy.
But while we see exciting developments improving the efficiency and speed to deploy financial capital, human capital is left behind, although now more than ever, with effects of COVID and the 4th industrial revolution crushing job markets across the globe, we need to accelerate our ability to develop and deploy human capital on a global scale.
Opinion
On Centralized Platforms and The Internet of Careers®
Many platforms have emerged to support this new way of exchanging trusted career-related information, but the concept of portable, verifiable, comprehensive digital credentials requires an approach that is as ubiquitous as the internet itself.
