The New Standard: Why LERs Are Becoming a Must-Have for Student Success

by Eric Stoller

The LER Moment Has Arrived

Higher education is under pressure to demonstrate value, not just with degrees, but with employability. Learning and Employment Records (LERs) connect learning to careers, validate skills, and equip students with lifelong credential wallets. And colleges are realizing: this isn’t a future goal. It’s a present necessity.

From Planning to Launch in Weeks, Not Months

In the past, institutions hesitated to implement LERs due to long timelines or complex integrations. Territorium removes those barriers. With our accelerated implementation model, you can deploy a fully functional LER ecosystem before the fall term begins.

AI-Powered Skill Mapping for Every Course

Territorium’s LifeJourney platform makes it simple to map your curriculum to career-relevant skills using artificial intelligence. Within days, your programs can be aligned to job market data, giving students clear visibility into how their education translates into opportunity.

A Wallet Students Will Actually Use

Students receive more than a record—they get a digital credential wallet that travels with them. From college to career and beyond, the wallet helps them showcase badges, microcredentials, and verified learning that employers understand.

Implementation That Fits Your Budget

We’ve introduced a new lower-cost initial package to make it easier for institutions to launch. You don’t need six figures to provide modern, skills-based tools for your students. This is an investment that fits within budget cycles—and pays off in both recruitment and retention.

August-Ready, Action-Driven

With summer around the corner, institutions that act now can be live before the fall semester. We’re making that easier by offering an additional 10% discount if you begin your rollout by August. It’s a bold move toward student empowerment, made more affordable than ever.

Future-Proofing Student Success

LERs are more than technology—they shift how institutions define and deliver value. From increasing transparency to supporting lifelong learning and workforce outcomes, LERs are becoming foundational for institutions that want to lead in the next decade.

You’re Not Starting from Scratch

Our team brings years of experience implementing CLRs, LERs, and digital credential ecosystems. We work side by side with your staff to align on strategy, move quickly, and ensure data portability across systems. You’ll have a tested roadmap—tailored to your needs.

Ready to Lead? Let’s Talk

If your institution is serious about boosting student success, improving visibility into learning outcomes, and standing out in a crowded marketplace, now is the time. Launch your LER by August, and take advantage of exclusive pricing while it lasts.
