District Council 37 (DC 37), New York City’s largest public-sector labor union announced a new initiative to help its 127,000 members track professional credentials and skills development, and match them with career pathways. The membership of DC 37 covers over 1,000 different job titles including the city’s engineers, social workers, and education support staff to name a few. Through a partnership with New York City-based digital credential platform Credly, DC 37 will issue digital badges, making it easier for members to demonstrate their skills, qualify for pay raises, and connect to new job opportunities.
