Higher Education & Workforce Development

Give students, job seekers, and entrepreneurs a single front door to everything your institution has built.

University innovation centers, workforce development offices, and regional economic development programs use EcoMap to give every student, job seeker, and entrepreneur on campus a navigable front door to resources and to give university leadership the measurable program impact data they need to justify investment and demonstrate regional economic contribution. Shippensburg University and Sacramento State University are already building their regional ecosystems on EcoMap.

University Platform Preview

Engage Students. Connect Research. Prove ROI.

Innovation directors, workforce development deans, and regional economic development officers at universities all face the same underlying challenge: the programs, resources, mentors, and opportunities they've built are fragmented across departments, websites, and spreadsheets, invisible to the students, job seekers, and entrepreneurs who need them most. EcoMap gives your institution a single, curated resource hub that spans entrepreneurship programs, workforce pathways, and regional economic development resources. And it gives university leadership the outcome data, including student connections made, workforce placements facilitated, and regional partnerships formed, that turns a program report into an institutional impact story.

What EcoMap does for your institution

Resource Mapping & Discovery

EcoMap automatically discovers and maps campus innovation resources, workforce development programs, employer partnerships, and regional support organizations, from makerspaces and funding opportunities to apprenticeship programs and career pathways, so every resource you offer is findable by every person who needs it.

Centralized Events

Showcase pitch competitions, employer information sessions, workshops, workforce training events, and career fairs in one place so students and job seekers never miss an opportunity because it was posted in the wrong system.

Engagement & Outcome Tracking

Track student and learner engagement across entrepreneurship programs, workforce pathways, and employer partnerships with outcome data that demonstrates regional economic contribution to university leadership and state funders.

Benefits for Higher Education & Workforce Development

Measurable Impact

Your resources, always current and always findable

EcoMap automatically discovers and maintains the programs, mentors, funding opportunities, and workforce pathways relevant to your campus, so students and job seekers find what they need without calling your office and your team stops maintaining outdated directories.

Every student and job seeker finds their next step

Whether they're launching a startup, pursuing a career pathway, or accessing workforce training, every person who engages with your institution can find the resources they need, including mentors, funding, employers, and programs, without navigating a dozen different websites.

Show leadership and your funders what the institution is building

EcoMap ERM tracks the connections your programs facilitate, including student-to-mentor introductions, workforce placements, and employer partnerships, so your next report to university leadership or your state legislature shows regional economic contribution, not just program activity.
