The workplace of the future is changing quickly, and so are the required skillsets that will allow workers to thrive. Teachers and district leaders worry that they may not be adequately preparing students for the workplace of the future. That's why we are so pleased to introduce Marchup, an innovative platform designed to bridge this gap. Marchup’s mission is to safely set students up for success in college and career, enabling them to turn their aspirations into reality by equipping them with personalized, impactful resources to unlock their full potential.
What Is Marchup?
Marchup is an engagement platform dedicated to helping students navigate college readiness and professional growth. The company is committed to providing a safe and secure environment in which students can explore opportunities for their future. They offer AI-powered career counseling, helping to alleviate the pressure on school counselors. Students can use Marchup to build a professional profile, access internship and volunteer opportunities through the Marchup job board, and even create and incubate their initiatives, such as clubs and nonprofit organizations in Marchup Spaces.
How Marchup Benefits K-12 Schools
By providing AI-driven guidance to students, Marchup frees educators and counselors to focus on impactful student interactions. It also empowers students to take control of their own futures, improving engagement. For schools that access grants and funding based on student performance, Marchup helps close the student achievement gap. Marchup also helps schools unlock the power of their alumni by creating an alumni network that is engaged in mentorship, supporting school initiatives, and fundraising efforts.
Safe, Secure Career Readiness for Students
Marchup is a social platform for students that differentiates itself from others with its dedication to student security. Unlike many other social platforms, students have full control over their profiles and what is visible to others. Furthermore, Marchup does not collect any information that isn’t necessary to create the student’s professional presence and hides information like the student’s last name and school on their public profile. Student accounts created through trusted rosters or with uploaded verification receive a 'Marchup verified' checkmark. Features such as reporting content and blocking users ensure students remain safe. Moreover, parental notifications built into relevant workflows, such as job applications, provide an extra layer of protection. Marchup is an inaugural vendor in GG4L’s SchoolDay Collection and has partnered with GG4L to make its platform available securely to US schools. They have also partnered with the California Public Library System for college and career seminars.
