EXIN showcases Astride to the Stichting Competens, whose investment has been a great support to get Astride to where it is today. Both firms are excited to see how Astride can benefit professionals in their digital skills journey.

How does it work?

• First, Astride asks a series of questions in key areas based on the recognized European Competency Framework (e-CF).
• The proprietary software gathers the information and processes it.
• Then, a custom-tailored Astride Insights Report is produced.

The tool evaluates competencies and compares them with equivalent job roles. By focusing on 42 primary competencies, and 30 job roles, the tool is a tremendous asset for companies to identify organization-wide skills performance.

Michiel Buysing Damsté, CEO at EXIN, is excited to unveil Astride, commenting:

"Technological disruption comes fast! Companies struggle to find professionals with the right, relevant skills in a competitive labor market. To maximize Return on Learning (RoL) we need to make sure that we invest our time on what matters most for professionals' current roles and future career development. Astride by EXIN, boosts digital skill development journeys by identifying skills gaps on an individual and organizational level. Astride provides guidance for next steps relevant for CxOs, L&D leaders and professionals."
