Stage Seed

Approach

Employers are turning to apprenticeship degrees to address vacancies and establish strong talent pipelines, but despite the amount of federal funding available, they lack the data resources to overcome the administrative challenges of scaling these programs.1

Alignment

Craft helps employers manage the myriad of data points necessary to access WIOA funding and launch apprenticeship programs. Craft also leverages this data to support state-level labor strategies.

As a co-founder of leading teaching apprenticeship provider, Reach University, CEO Mallory DwinalPalisch recognized data analytics and reporting as an inhibitor to scaling apprenticeships. Craft’s software will provide momentum for apprenticeship programs and help dramatically reduce the cost of obtaining credentials for all apprentices.
