Failure to Reflect is Failure to Progress: Uncovering the Superpowers of Comprehensive Learner Record (CLR)
The power of self-reflection is invaluable to one’s growth during an academic or professional career. Yet, learners need an intentional approach to self-reflection. The AEFIS platform provides and end-to-end solution to implementing Comprehensive Learner Record (CLR) which provides verified, validated and self-issued achievements as visual display of artifacts and feedback in real-time. In collaboration with a diverse set of institutional partners, we will share use-cases of CLR and the powerful reflection processes that empower learners and earners with evidence of their achievements.

Equity, Competency, and the Whole Child Experience in K-12 Education
With student equity in high focus, the time is right for us to take the vision of a Comprehensive Learner Record (CLR) into mainstream acceptance and adoption in K-12. Colleges are increasingly looking for more holistic validations of admission applicants and schools are more determined than ever to capture growth in learning across the whole child experience, from leadership to academic achievement. We are excited to marshall the national OESIS Network behind this worthy public-private partnership. Download Equity in K-12 presentation. Download PIVOT presentation.

Applying the Network Approach to the Resume Problem
There's an old adage about job seeking that, "It's not what you know; it's who you know." It's time to update that adage—and the standard resume—to more accurately reflect the future of work. We believe it's a combination of what you know, how you communicate it, and who you can connect with. Digital credentials in isolation have laid the foundation of what's next for the resume. Join us to find out what Credly and it's robust network of credential issuers have planned for connecting industry with learning, and opportunities with qualified individuals. Download presentation.

Reconceptualizing Implementations of Digital Badging
Many people consider digital badging and micro-credentialing to be nascent practices in higher education. Though numerous institutions have engaged in efforts to leverage the technology and standards, several challenges—such as adoption practices, program-oriented thinking, and unfocused value expectations—persist and are hindering opportunities for broader adoption of Open Badges. Campus Labs will share its vision for helping institutions reconceptualize the implementation of digital badging and micro-credentialing in order to mitigate these challenges. Download presentation.
