As SkillUp marks five years of impact, we reflect on what we’ve accomplished alongside our coalition of 150+ mission-aligned partners and where we’re heading next.
This year, we celebrate:
* Nearly 4 million individuals skilled through alternative routes (STARs) supported
* 166,000+ job placements
* $11.2 billion in estimated additional wages for SkillUp job attainers
* 40+ regional locations
* 18 full-time staff dedicated to STARs
These numbers matter, but the real story lies in how we got here; the bets we made, the lessons we learned and the bold vision we carry into the next five years.
Our 2025 Impact Report offers a transparent look at what’s working, what we’re still learning and how we plan to rise to the challenges ahead. It’s a blueprint for how SkillUp continues to evolve to meet the moment and a call to action for anyone who believes economic mobility should be within reach for all.
