By Craig WeissEdTech and Skills
I’ve heard from a couple of vendors who play in the EdTech market (defined as K-12 and higher education), that believe skills, specifically skills capabilities can be successful at the higher education sector. It’s a novel approach, actually interesting, in one way, but it comes with assumptions, and if anyone who has studied the EdTech higher education segment, the pitfalls are very clear.
When talking about skills, these are skills focused on job roles or job opportunities, depending on your take. I could see interests being of value to those in higher education, and for colleges and universities who want to tap into the skills angle for their career center.
