We solve the key challenges schools and districts face when building and sustaining learner-centered systems.

It’s a familiar problem—schools aren’t equipping students with the skills they need for the modern workforce. Despite a rising need for skills-based assessment, traditional learning platforms have failed to adapt, leaving educators unable to efficiently teach, track, assess and credential essential skills.

LiFT accelerates achievement

by making skills the stars of the show.

LiFT Learning makes skills-based learning practical, efficient, and scalable. Our comprehensive solution fuses the technological, pedagogical and change management needs of innovative schools, districts, and training programs.

 

LiFT is effective across a broad spectrum of learner-centered models—from microschools to districts, from rural to urban, including public, private, charter, and Career and Technical Education (CTE) centers, and workforce development.

 

The gold standard for project-based learning design, LiFT allows learners and educators to co-create meaningful, personalized real-world experiences.  You’ll have the tools to design and manage learner led, interdisciplinary, collaborative projects that build independence and ownership without the extra work.

 

We know that coherence is key to your success. Your custom skills, standards, competencies, rubrics and Portraits of a Learner come alive in LiFT as an explicit part of the daily dialogue with learners. With LiFT, you'll clarify grading practices, communication protocols, and expectations across your entire learning community.

 

For learners, LiFT is empowering, transparent, and fair. It eliminates bias in grading, replaces abstract scores with tangible evidence of ability, and stacks verified portfolios that showcase real-world skills students can carry into the workforce and higher education.
