Selected from a diverse group of entrepreneurs and industry leaders, the current cohort of executives will each focus on high-profile issues related to the use of data to improve equity in education and workforce outcomes, incubating programs that can either be launched within JFF or spunoff and led by their own organizations. Each EIR will author and publish original publications about the impact from their research on the challenge that they want to solve, contributing to the field's understanding of complex topics at the intersection of policy, practice, and private sector innovation.
Each EIR will receive funding to support their work as well as staff support from the JFFLabs team, who will help them to produce market scans, incubate products and services, and develop a go-to-market strategy. They will also benefit from collaboration with JFF’s team of 100+ subject matter experts and project leads, spanning specific issue areas from apprenticeship and work-based learning to postsecondary learning and corporate learning.
