An infographic showing the three ways Participate makes LERs work. 1) CBOs use Participate's platform to  create and issue verified LERs 2) Learners earn and showcase their credentials and 3) Employers access the trusted data in the LERs

An infographic showing the three ways Participate makes LERs work. 1) CBOs use Participate's platform to create and issue verified LERs 2) Learners earn and showcase their credentials and 3) Employers access the trusted data in the LERs

LERs + The Right Tech = Real Value

Learning & Employment Records are verifiable credentials for the modern workforce.

Our CoP platform helps CBOs create verifiable credentials that:
- Support diverse learners
- Connect skills to employers
- Build trusted hiring pathways
