Ecosystem Cartography: Mapping the Education and Training Landscape
In this article, IACET introduces the concept of "ecosystem cartography" to illustrate our role in mapping the complex landscape of the education and training industry. We explain how accreditation, credentialing, licensing, workforce development, and data management serve as pillars of this ecosystem, ensuring quality and alignment with industry standards. By serving as the primary guide for stakeholders, we help organizations navigate emerging trends like digital credentialing and online learning, fostering collaboration and ensuring a clear path forward for providers and learners alike.
