Put demonstrated skills to work.
Thurgood helps employers define and find the capabilities their work requires, schools understand what their programs are actually developing, and skilled people prove what they can do. The Verified Skills Graph gives each group a different way to work from the same underlying language of capability.
See demonstrated skills, review the evidence behind them, and build stronger teams around capability.
Turn real work into evidence employers can use.
Connect program expectations, student evidence and workforce demand.
Hire and keep people who can do the work.
Make the skills and capabilities your work requires explicit. Thurgood shows you people who have demonstrated those capabilities and the evidence behind them.
See where someone already matches your needs, where they are still building, and build a hiring pipeline around demonstrated capability. Use the same visibility to guide development, strengthen fit and keep more of the people you hire.
Show what you can do. Build from there.
Bring your projects, labs, certifications, training and real work into Thurgood. We connect that work to specific skills so employers can see what you have demonstrated and you can see what to build next.
Use your work to build a record of capability you can carry into internships, apprenticeships and jobs.
Know what your programs are developing.
Build the skills and capabilities a program is intended to develop into a clear pathway. As students and instructors capture work and evidence, Thurgood gives the institution a living view of what is being demonstrated, what is still developing and where patterns emerge across students and programs.
Use that capability intelligence in the ways that fit your institution: strengthen programs, support student progress, communicate around next steps, deepen employer relationships, improve reporting or compare program development with changing workforce demand.
Turn hands-on learning into skill evidence while the work is happening.
The Lab Evidence System gives instructors and training staff a shared, tablet-friendly way to document hands-on student work directly from the lab.
Select the lab, cohort, student and skill, then capture a photo or video of the work being performed. That evidence flows into the student's existing Verified Skills Graph, alongside evidence the student adds from the Thurgood app.
Schools control the devices, labs, cohorts, instructors and student rosters from the same campus environment—so evidence capture becomes part of instruction instead of another task students have to remember later.
The same graph can create the next pipeline.
Career Discovery lets a young person begin with the work itself: explore a career, open the capabilities behind it, see evidence of those skills, and discover programs that develop them.
The payoff: career awareness can lead naturally into program discovery, capability development, evidence and eventually employer demand.
The same skills connect people, programs and jobs.
Thurgood connects demonstrated work to the skills behind it, the programs that develop those skills and the jobs that require them. Schools can use that same structure to understand capability development and decide how to act on it. That shared structure is the Verified Skills Graph.
