Understanding Certifications

This report is intended as a primer to help policymakers and practitioners navigate the complex and little understood landscape of certifications. The report highlights how individuals who earn certifications and licenses fare better in the labor market at a time when enormous economic shifts predating and accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic created a challenging job market. The report also examines how some certifications can offer short-term pathways to employment, a valuable option for working adults and low-income populations.
