Our mission is to make sure employees get the credit they deserve for the skills training they already do. Many employers offer on-the-job training and now, with Craft, they can also provide a way for their employees to get college credit for that training.

Why are we focusing all our energy and expertise on this? Because with Craft, merit and effort - not money or connections - determine who gets ahead. We are re-seeding the American Dream through a more equitable approach to socioeconomic mobility by making sure that jobs are linked to skills that can be earned anywhere, rather than being limited to graduates from exclusive universities that few can access or afford.
