Performer
Your personal GPS for education and careers - pick a destination, see what you still need, and follow a route that fits your life.
What is Performer?
Performer is like a navigation app for your education and career. You tell it where you want to go - a degree, a certification, a job role - and it looks at what you already have (courses, credentials, experience) to figure out what's left.
Then it shows you every route to get there, ranked by time and cost, so you can choose the path that works for your life. As you make progress, Performer tracks it and sends recognition back to your school or employer automatically.
In short, Performer answers the question: "How do I get from where I am to where I want to be?"
The Performer interface — pick a destination, see your gaps, and choose the best route forward.
How Performer Works
Choose Destination
Select a qualification, program, or career role published in Playlist. This is where you want to end up.
Establish Position
Import transcripts, r�sum�s, or prior credentials. Performer maps what you already have against what's required.
Compare Routes
See every pathway that closes the gap - ranked by time, cost, and confidence - so you can pick the route that fits your life.
Follow & Earn Recognition
Track progress, upload evidence, and receive validated recognition as you complete each requirement.
💡 Engagement
Performer meets learners where they already are - embedded on university pages, employer portals, and workforce sites - creating meaningful interaction without asking them to leave.
🧭 Improved Agency
Learners see their own position, understand their gaps, and choose their route. Performer puts the decision-making power in the hands of the person doing the work.
💾 Saving the Progress
Every step, every credential, every piece of evidence is captured and persisted. Learners pick up exactly where they left off - nothing is lost between sessions, institutions, or life changes.
🌉 Bridges Over Gaps & Valleys
Life isn't a straight line. Performer connects the gaps and valleys in a learner's journey - building bridges between where they are now and every destination they can reach.
🔀 Multi-Route Comparison
Not everyone takes the same path. Performer shows alternatives - degree transfer, vocational certificate, bootcamp + credential - side by side, so learners choose what fits their life.
🏅 Recognition Events
As evidence is verified, recognition events fire back to the institution, updating status in real time - no manual follow-up, no paperwork limbo.
🧩 Embeddable Widget
Performer drops onto any website - a university's transfer page, an employer portal, a state workforce site - and works within that context without redirecting users away.
🤝 Playlist Hand-off
Performer picks up exactly where Playlist leaves off. A learner browsing destinations in Playlist transitions into Performer with full context preserved.
