The Center for Skills by C-BEN

Skills validation, assessment, and collaboration for the skills-based economy

From leading companies to state governments, many of today’s top employers are shifting to skills-based hiring practices that allow them to better understand what workers know and can do. But to realize the promise of a skills-based economy, we must be able to reliably and objectively define, measure, and validate skills.

The Center for Skills by C-BEN (CFS x C-BEN) serves as the leading organization in skills-based assessment, bringing together leaders from education, workforce, and employer hiring systems to guide the field in developing quality talent assessments, implementing quality practices, and sparking innovation and action.  

Together, we will blaze the trail toward a skills-based future that works for everyone.
