Since 2003, Upshift Global has provided practical, easily administered, valid and predictive tools that enable employers and workforce professionals to measure, develop and document the essential/soft skills required for work readiness and workplace effectiveness for a wide range of jobs. Over 5,00,000 people have been assessed by this employer-validated technology.Work readiness - for jobs at any level - is a three-legged stool whose legs are Academic, Technical/Career and Soft Skills. Soft or interpersonal skills are increasingly important to workforce developers because employers want to know - before hiring - what kind of worker someone will be; and, post-employment, where should further development be focused.

Our tools enable organizations to:

• Align the skill demands of employers with the competencies of future workers.
• Measure and develop adults' and youth's interpersonal (soft) skills. Using work-simulation-based and video-delivered technology, employers and workforce developers have assessed applicants and future or incumbent workers for jobs that range from entry-level to high-performance to supervisory positions.
• Address soft skill deficits. Continuously improve academic and technical programs' effectiveness at integrating soft skills into their content and outcomes.
• Implement training and development and measure their effectiveness.
• Create transcripts, profiles and credentials of individuals' effective workplace behaviors.
• Establish skills validation and competency management systems.
