Pole Star Experiential Learning's hybrid
approach for workforce development incorporates skills gap training and
executive career coaching woven within our virtual micro-internship experience with an innovative curriculum called the Professional Edge Platform©. This has been designed to develop, measure,
and improve workplace performance thereby enhancing an individual's
chance at winning that next job offer! These critical professional competencies are those that are vital in any industry,
and now you can earn certifications in these transferrable skill areas by
participating in PSEL's academies. These competencies are currently housed
within the Credential Engine Registry©.
At the end of anyone of our programs, our participants walk away with real-world experience to show on a resume, certifications in soft-skill areas, a professional portfolio, an improved online presence; and an app from SkyHive that is a virtual career recruiter in their pocket that uses the power of AI to match their skills to those that prospective employers are demanding.

transitioning military personnel
Supporting literature suggests that the hiring organizations are often are concerned about hiring the long-term unemployed or those with unfamiliar skillsets. Many perceive that they have lost or do not posses the necessary competencies to be successful. Whether or not this is a valid assumption, giving these individuals the chance to regain lost skills while acquiring new provides possibilities and valuable resume experience.
Graduates
College means visions of career opportunities once finished. It is reported that graduating students feel that the knowledge of their degree program was not enough to make a difference in helping them land a job or gain a career. Without the actual competencies that employers demand; these young graduates are faced with challenges and fewer career options.
Adult Learners
Adult learners seeking career changes and better opportunities believe that a completed degree equates to an immediate promotion. However, this isn't often the case. The hard reality is that without those necessary professional competencies to lead, and the experience gained from being able to lead, this may mean getting passed by when it comes time for promotion.
Budding Entrepreneurs
Becoming a business owner can be an intimidating process, but not if you know what it takes! We can help you discover your entrepreneurial strengths, while giving you the opportunity to work on those things that need polish in an environment that is forgiving and not financially devastating.
WE SERVE YOU...
We grow by planning and testing what has been learned to achieve a greater capacity of skill and competency.
What do some of our past students say?
We aim to make the Pole Star experience challenging yet rewarding and gratifying as participants will be introduced to some concepts that need developing, processes that need direction, and problems that need solving. Our consortium partners are committed to their growth and success which means that they have a problem that only our team can fix!
Past program participants have revealed that in the beginning, they felt a bit overwhelmed, a bit confused, and felt thrusted into a chaotic environment. However, this is by design as most formidable challenges can be uncomfortable at first. Therefore, these sentiments can be expected and are all part of the process. Our Professional Edge Platform© is an incubator for success. This purposeful uncertainty allows leadership to take root and to grow and is what makes or breaks a true professional that can work successfully with anyone anywhere.
