About us
Skillbridge is a unique, dynamic solutions provider with specialized expertise in capacity building for developing countries and underserved communities often facing poverty. We are passionate about how our solutions help alleviate poverty, which comes with complex challenges. The problem: Right now, nearly 800 million people earn less than $2 per day, live in absolute poverty, and lack the minimal resources needed to sustain life. The psychologically crippling focus on survival that people living in poverty experience reduces their ability to grow and progress. What is needed? Around the globe, leaders are collectively trying to address this and set a 2030 deadline to eliminate extreme poverty using the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals. Goal #8, Decent Work and Economic Growth, is key to alleviating poverty by supporting micro, small, and medium enterprises. According to the International Finance Corporation, these small businesses could provide 70% of the 600 million new jobs the world needs. This requires training, upskilling, and capacity building for those business owners, those seeking employment, and those training them. Our solution: Our solution is to increase people's professional capacity and employability and the growth potential of these businesses through the 3 elements of our Skillbridge. First, we execute our solutions through a powerful arch of core services, including assessment, training, coaching, strategic action planning, measurement and evaluation, and sustainability support. Second, our services rest on our support beams of guiding principles by going beyond the identification of needed skills to understand mindsets, processes, and behaviors that we identify before implementation. Third, we implement the journey through our pillars of vetted quality and training methodologies tailored for problem-solving. How can we Skillbridge together? https://WeSkillbridge.com/ *Our employees include our team of independent contractors.
