Lightcast utilizes secure, privacy-safeguarding, proprietary normalizations and enrichments (including, but not limited to providers, classifications of instructional programs [CIP], skills, and more). The Lightcast enrichments enable apples-to-apples comparisons to other Lightcast datasets and offerings which leverage the same Lightcast-proprietary normalizations and enrichments. Skillabi sources optionally, but typically, include (but are not limited to): customer-provided data (institutional programs, courses, and descriptive text describing curricular offerings), Lightcast job posting analytics, and multiple classification taxonomies. Lightcast uses this data along with proprietary approaches and methodologies to produce easy-to-read reports that can be leveraged by various teams across educational organizations.
