DESCRIPTION

A government authority in Texas is seeking a learning and employment record solution that provides a comprehensive, learner-centered platform for students and lifelong learners. The solution is intended to help users understand, document, demonstrate, and leverage their knowledge, skills, competencies, and achievements in support of career success, workforce readiness, and economic mobility.

The requested platform should support Comprehensive Learner Records (CLR) and Learning and Employment Records (LER), while connecting academic accomplishments, co-curricular experiences, workforce-relevant skills, career pathways, and employment opportunities within a secure, learner-controlled environment. The system should be able to aggregate and display verified learner achievements from institutional and external sources, and manage credentials such as badges, certifications, licenses, internships, apprenticeships, work-based learning experiences, and other achievements.

The solution should also provide configurable frameworks for skills, competencies, learning outcomes, and achievement taxonomies, along with governance tools to manage, validate, approve, and maintain learner achievements and credentials. Additional requirements include secure APIs, strong integration capabilities, interoperability tools for importing, migrating, or reissuing existing digital badges, and dashboards, analytics, and reporting features to support learner outcome tracking, workforce success measurement, and program impact assessment.
