We package braided funding, a national academic partner, and the operational back office into one turnkey workforce offer — so hospitals, health systems, FQHCs, and long-term care providers can build allied health talent from their own communities, without standing up the infrastructure alone.
Traveler labor eats margin. Service lines pause. Care gets harder to access, and the communities with the thinnest margins feel it first. Most CFOs can name the dollar figure on a single unfilled CNA or surgical tech role — and the figure climbs every month it stays open.
The talent is already in the community. What's missing is the infrastructure to train, fund, document, and report on a workforce pathway that gets a paraprofessional or entry-level worker into a credentialed allied health role — locally, durably, and at low or no cost to the employer.
A no- or low-cost workforce offer for any healthcare employer bleeding money on unfilled roles. Built once, run anywhere. Four pieces, packaged together — the academic and credentialing side is solved on day one.
CTE, WIOA, SAEF, and Workforce Pell, layered with state and philanthropic dollars where they exist. The dollars stay braided — and the next grant cycle is easier than the last one.
A named national academic partner — Pangea Learning for allied health — paired with a pre-built implementation kit. Roles, related instruction, OJT structure, and competencies all defined on day one.
Apprenticeship documentation that meets registered-apprenticeship standards. Learner progress, OJT hours, milestones, and measurable skill gains — without forcing your team to operate the back office.
WIOA, CTE, SAEF, Workforce Pell, and health workforce reporting in one place. MSG exports, competency rollups, and partner-ready dashboards that hold up under audit and renewal.
A nationally scaled allied health RTI provider, paired with Craft's apprenticeship infrastructure. You bring the employer site and the talent you already have in the community — we bring the curriculum, the funding stack, the documentation, and the reporting. One conversation, not five.
Have your own RTI provider or a role not listed here? The platform runs any allied health program. We can still support you.
Create pathways for people already rooted in the community — incumbent workers, CNAs, paraprofessionals, and aspiring allied health professionals who want to serve where they live.
Healthcare employers have access to funding streams, but the dollars are hard to braid and sustain. We align workforce, education, apprenticeship, and grant reporting so programs are easier to fund and easier to renew.
We package the program structure, documentation, reporting workflows, and partner coordination needed to launch and manage pathways — without your team building it all in-house.
Data infrastructure for learner progress, on-the-job learning, competencies, milestones, completions, and workforce outcomes — in one place, ready for partners and funders.
Funders, boards, and communities need to see what changed. We turn program activity into clear evidence: who entered, who progressed, who completed, and how the pathway is addressing local workforce needs.
Every new pathway should land on a kit, not a one-off lift for your staff. That's the bar we hold ourselves to.
Start with the role where your vacancy cost is highest. Surgical tech, sterile processing, and medical assistant come with pre-built pathways and a named RTI partner. Every other allied health program runs on the same platform, and we design new pathways with you on request. Nursing pathways are emerging where state scope-of-practice and academic partners allow; most programs start with CNA, patient care tech, or medical assistant, the roles that feed a nursing pipeline.
A hospital CFO could, in theory, braid CTE, WIOA, SAEF, and Workforce Pell on their own. In practice, they cannot. We align the streams, document the use of funds, and produce the reporting each one demands — so the dollars you braid this year stay braided next year.
