Austin, Texas — Aug. 30, 2023 — Enboarder®, the world’s first and only Human Connection Platform® creating better human connections across the entire employee journey, today announced its inclusion on Emerge Education’s Edtech 20:20 vision list of top edtech companies. This is the first year Enboarder appeared on this list, which is crowdsourced from Emerge Education‘s workforce development edtech leadership board.

Enboarder is listed in the “Top 10 ‘Superstars'” category alongside other companies such as Career Karma, SkyHive, Sounding Board, On Deck, Reforge, Hone, Strivr, and Sana. Companies in the Top 10 Superstars category are established players and have raised more than $50 million.

The Edtech 20:20 vision list is crowdsourced and voted on by Emerge Education’s workforce development edtech leadership board. Inclusion criteria include:

  • Breadth and quality of courses/content/pedagogy
  • Quality of features and capabilities
  • Industry visibility, innovation, and impact
  • Strength of clients and geographic reach
  • Company size and growth potential

“We are thrilled to be recognized by Emerge Education alongside this list of innovative workforce development companies,” said Brent Pearson, founder and CEO of Enboarder. “The skills gap and employee engagement continue to be a challenge for companies also navigating economic uncertainty and a labor shortage. Enboarder helps foster human connection and belonging between co-workers and across teams that’s critical for productivity and retention.” “There’s this big, black box when companies spend time and energy to hire, and then as many as 50% of those new hires don’t show up for work on day 1,” said Amanda Nolen, LP and venture partner at Emerge Education. “So what can we do to ensure we meet the needs of those individuals – keep them engaged, excited, and learning before they enter the work location? There are huge opportunities there.”
