Foundation for Excellence (FFE), a 30-year-old non-profit organization dedicated to awarding college scholarships to financially constrained but promising students, partnered with Coursera to bridge the soft skills and technical skills gap for its scholars, 80% of whom come from rural and semi-urban backgrounds.. By integrating Coursera's diverse course offerings into their scholarship program, the foundation has seen a significant impact – placement rates jumped to 96% after graduation, and the graduates’’ salary levels grew 2.8x. Looking ahead, FFE plans to leverage Coursera's Course Builder to create a more seamless learning journey and explore the growing demand for AI courses.
