What SOLO is

SOLO is skills-first infrastructure that connects programs, verified records, credentials, employer visibility, and outcome reporting.

It doesn't replace your LMS, SIS, credential platform, or career-services tools — it connects them so institutions can capture evidence, issue trusted credentials, show readiness to employers, and prove outcomes.

Skills Opportunities Learnings Outcomes

Built for every stakeholder

Use SOLO to connect education, employment, public workforce priorities, and learner mobility with verified skills data.
