Skill Up Washington

Our Work Started in 2007, SkillUp Washington is a funding collaborative that brings together public, private and philanthropic funders of adult workforce education and training to support the needs of low-income working adults and increase employer access to a qualified workforce. Our mission is to help establish training and educational pathways so low-skilled adults can earn a credential and move up the career ladder. Specifically, we work with employers to align workforce training with industry needs; invest in targeted and innovative programs that help low-income adults receive postsecondary credentials; and support programs that help workers get trained and advance in their fields.
