EMBARK AND NACM
ARE OWNED BY LIGHTCAST
In September 2023 Lighcast acquired Embark and the National Alumni Career Mobility survey (NACM) from The Career Leadership Collective. The Collective pioneered these data service products so that higher education could transform career outcomes. Lightcast has two decades of experience in creating data solutions, and with their leadership, Embark and NACM will continue to pioneer industry change through data-based innovations.
The Collective’s mission is to intentionally and strategically influence the career development of every student. Lightcast is committed to creating a job market that works for everyone. This acquisition helps our field better realize both goals. View the press release here.
Embark was developed by the Career Leadership Collective to be the premier first destination survey solution for higher education. The National Alumni Career Mobility (NACM) survey was developed by the Career Leadership Collective as the first annual survey to inform career-readiness practices at colleges and universities in the United States. They are now part of Lightcast’s suite of data-driven solutions powering learner career success. Lightcast and the Collective maintain a strategic partnership to meet the alumni tracking and career-readiness needs of higher education.
