NEW YORK, April 12, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- MyKlovr, the AI-powered college & career counseling platform, was named finalist in the “College Prep Solution”, “Career Planning Solution” and “Product Setting a Trend” categories of the 2023 EdTech Awards. This marks the 4th year in a row of recognition for myKlovr and the first time a single product has bridged the gap with recognition for college, career, and innovation.
Organized by EdTech Digest, the EdTech Awards are the world’s largest and most competitive awards program recognizing product innovation and trendsetters in the K-12, higher education, and workforce training industries for the last 13 years. Past winners include Adobe, Claned, Soundtrap, Blackboard, Discovery Education, DreamBox, Edthena, Promethean, Scholastic, SMART Technologies, zSpace and more.
“Over the last year, our team has hit a number of important milestones to solidify college and career planning as a ‘must-have’ employee benefit for employers competing for top talent,” said Gustavo Dolfino, founder and CEO at myKlovr. “Bridging the gap between the traditional counseling and employee benefits industries has been a novel distribution strategy,” Dolfino added, “but being the only product recognized across these three categories further validates the significance of the opportunity.”
Earlier this year, myKlovr partnered with college counseling platform Empowerly to launch Pathways, an AI-enabled solution to support teen mental health and bring affordable college & career planning benefits to employers at scale. Together, they provide industry-leading support to companies looking to recruit and retain talent, boost employee wellbeing, meet DEI goals, and provide life-changing support to employee families.
