What We Do

data analysis

Every day employers tell with their job postings which skills and education are required to get hired.

We analyze millions of these job postings daily and turn them into an online learning experience for students.

We educate students about the job market and what employers need years before they graduate giving them the opportunity to make more informed decisions about their education.

Our unique technology and approach to teaching students about the job market takes them on a journey during which they explore jobs in demand for themselves. Choosing a job title they work backward to learn from the job requirements which skills and post-secondary education employers want.

How It Works

We offer classes to high schools either in-person or remote. During class students learn the basics of the job market, jobs in demand as well as skills and education required.

Included with every class is access to the Candogram system where students explore the live job market. As part of this online journey students discover job titles employers use and skill requirements they can already match. This gives students a sense of accomplishment and builds confidence.

Similar to the stock market Candogram tracks changes of employers' needs over time. With continous access to Candogram students learn about the ups and downs of the job market and the arrival of jobs of the future.
