Badge Pathways
Across the UK, local authorities face the same barriers: overlooked individuals without formal qualifications, employer blind spots around essential skills, disconnected provision that lacks clear pathways, and heavy reporting that takes weeks of manual effort. As a result, progress goes unseen, talent is missed, and good initiatives struggle to show their full value.
Inclusive Growth Is Harder Than Ever to Evidence
Overlooked talent
Residents with valuable experience but no formal qualifications
Employer blind spots
Essential skills and micro‑learning often go unseen in hiring.
Hidden Pathways
Good programmes that aren’t connected into clear pathways to work.
Difficult reporting
Outcome evidence can take weeks of manual effort.
