Our Goal:
Reach out to the over 300,000 Chicagoans with college credits but no degree and help them return to college and finish a degree,
especially in high-growth fields

The Problem:
300,000 plus Chicagoans with college credits but no degree.
By 2020, 67% of jobs will require a career certificate or a college degree.
Only 43% of Illinois adults currently have one.
The credentials Chicagoans have today are insufficient for the jobs of the future.
