Education Innovation Fellowship
Eskwelabs launched the Education Innovation Fellowship (EIF) in 2023 to scout for individuals who believed in our mission of equipping people to succeed in the future of work. We designed an internship for them, for multi-talent impact professionals.
2024 became our reflection year for the Fellowship, studying areas for improvement, exploring strengths that could be enhanced, all while partnering these retro notes with our 2025 plans.
