WorkReady Mobile is a multi-platform solution designed to support Adult Basic Education (ABE) programs and help students complete their education. The platform serves as a central source of communication between administrators, instructors, and adult students, enabling virtual training without the need to attend physical classes. This solution was particularly crucial for educational institutions that needed to retain students to receive state funding based on student milestone achievements.
