Workforce Strategy & System Design

We design programs that align with what employers actually need, then build the systems to deliver them.

Most workforce programs fail not because the idea is wrong, but because the system around it was never built. Goals get written down; the operating model never follows. Eleven Tenths starts where strategy meets reality: we translate institutional goals into systems that produce measurable outcomes in the real world.

What this looks like

  • Mapping employer demand to concrete program and pathway designs
  • Aligning strategy, curriculum, partnerships, and operations so they reinforce each other instead of competing
  • Designing degree-aligned and apprenticeship pathways that fit within existing institutional structures
  • Building the decision framework and governance that keeps a program coherent as it scales
Who we work with

Community colleges aligning programs to regional demand, workforce agencies planning funded initiatives, and employers who need a training pipeline designed around their occupations.

Proof

We helped California Community Colleges formalize plumbing apprenticeships into degree-aligned pathways, turning years of rigorous training into recognized academic credit without rebuilding the program.
