PreCognise
About PreCognise

Creating trusted connections between education, skills and employment.

PreCognise exists to connect fragmented pieces of the education-to-employment journey. The Verified Career Platform provides the engine. The marketplace creates the network of people, organisations and opportunities that the platform serves.

Local trust. Global opportunity.

Vision

To become the trusted infrastructure and marketplace connecting education, skills and employment.

Mission

To help individuals build trusted career pathways while connecting the whole ecosystem through a more transparent and intelligent talent marketplace.

Why PreCognise exists

People's capabilities are often hidden across disconnected systems.

Important evidence of applied learning is distributed across institutions, employers, workforce programmes, project platforms, learning systems and individual records. Employers struggle to identify trusted talent. Institutions struggle to see long-term graduate outcomes.

Workforce organisations struggle to follow participant pathways and demonstrate impact. Governments and funders need a clearer line of sight into how programmes and investments contribute to employment and regional outcomes.

Existing job platforms may connect people with listings, but they do not necessarily connect the broader ecosystem or create trusted, continuous career evidence. PreCognise exists to connect these fragmented pieces.

Verification-first philosophy

Verification is the foundation of trust.

PreCognise begins with Work-Integrated Learning because co-op placements, internships, practicums, applied projects and other real-world experiences provide important evidence of how candidates have used their education. The longer-term roadmap expands the evidence candidates can carry over time.

The role of AI

AI should not replace verification or trust. It helps candidates and marketplace partners make trusted information more useful. PreCognise uses AI to support:

Career guidance
Skills interpretation
Pathway exploration
Opportunity discovery
Intelligent matching
Talent search
Ecosystem intelligence
Responsible innovation

Trust, consent and governance come first.

In a period of rapid economic and technological change, trusted and verifiable talent marketplaces will be increasingly important to shared prosperity. Verification is always supported by clear principles.

Transparency

Being clear about what has been verified, and what has not.

Candidate consent

Verification and evidence sharing happen with candidate consent.

Privacy protections

Personal information is handled with appropriate safeguards.

Data governance

Responsible practices govern how information is used and shared.

Lawful & role-relevant use

Capabilities are applied only where lawful and relevant to the role.

Responsible AI

AI supports, rather than replaces, trusted human decisions.

Accessibility as a design principle

Canadian data residency
