| Shamrck Education uses artificial intelligence to help schools make smarter decisions with student insights for career and technical education. We help students find their perfect careers by connecting them with tools, resources, and industry professionals to assist them in making the best decision for their future, while giving this data back tothe schools to make actionable adjustments. Our patent-pending platform uses artificial intelligence to map student interests and provides them with a learning plan and to improve workforce readiness, academic planning, and career preparation. The platform follows students from 6th to 12th grade to map the career-focused student journey and help entities use predictive analytics with machine learning to improve programs and opportunities. Our overall goal is to allow kids to experience their future and make educated decisions about the next path in their life within the four E's: Enrollment (going to college), Employment (trade school or into the workforce), Enlistment (going to the military), or Entrepreneurship (starting their own business).We use artificial intelligence and predictive analytics to help school districts make data-driven decisions for their students based on workforce readiness and career preparation. From analyzing programming for the coming year to budgeting resources for students, we help districts and youth organizations see what students are doing and help them make programmatic decisions on how to best improve their offering for them. Additionally, we compare data to organizations of similar activity to provide additional data points and ideas on how to maintain processes for years to come. This pool of data allows schools to close the education-industry gap. With schools able to create a direct connection between education paths and the local industry, areas are able to realize sound workforce development and talent retention by preventing brain drain. Industries are better able to find talent pools and can work to cultivate the future workforce with programs such as mentorship, apprenticeships, and internships. Our target market is school districts as our customers with their students as our users. We want to target small, marginalized school districts first with large populations of Title I schools. These districts have high minority student rates but typically have lower workforce readiness. Additionally, we recognized the importance of STEM education for these communities and have made sure that our platform targets high-growth careers that can increase equity and economic development in lower-income areas. Our company mission is to solve racial and gender equity with access to resources and exposure to high-growth careers.Our team has strong experience in sales and marketing with a passion to solve social problems with technology. Additionally, we have the technical talent in our team of 16 that is passionate about increasing technology uses for future needs.
