Proof of Potential

Projects and initiatives focused on opportunity and potential.

Origin
Talent is evenly distributed. Access is not. Proof of Potential exists to shorten the distance between the two.
Problem
Young people with ability have no visible record of it — no portfolio, no proof, no route in.
Idea
Give potential a paper trail: programmes, tools and platforms that turn effort into evidence.
Building
Initiatives and software that let students document, publish and defend the work they have already done.
Current status
In build — first cohort tooling and the Prospects platform.
Milestones

Lessons
