Why we exist

Purpose above profit. Learning for everyone.

Talentrade is a social enterprise. We believe the know-how that top organizations pay for should be within reach of anyone who wants to build a healthy, fulfilling life and career.

Our purpose and vision

Our purpose

Talentrade exists to make available and accessible the essential knowledge, skills and tools that can help individuals of any background to build a career and lifestyle that is healthy, fulfilling and fruitful.

Our values

Seven beliefs behind everything we make.

Our products and services are guided by seven core values. Most of them are about learning, because learning is the lever for everything else.

  1. Every person has something valuable to contribute that is uniquely theirs

  2. We all have areas in which we should grow and improve

  3. The best learning happens in relationships

  4. Learning should be enjoyable (or at least, meaningful)

  5. Learning is the most important skill to master, and anyone can learn how

  6. (Nearly) anything is learnable

  7. Learning is lifelong

What this means in practice

No fluff. Just what works, for anyone willing to learn it.

We condense expert research into practical tools, and deliver them live through trusted facilitators and coaches.

We design for every stage of adulthood, from first jobs to retirement, and for the families who support older adults.

And we build partnerships across sectors, so companies, governments and non-profits can share skills, time and know-how, not just money.

Wherever you are in your life or career, there is a place to start on the Learning PATH.
