David J. Mosey
Founder of the Keys2Work Program
Executive Director, Smart Futures

An award winning educator, salesperson, and entrepreneur with a passion for the Internet, he began creating online career development programs dedicated to helping close the gap between education and work.  Keys2Work was born in 1998 as a tool to help high schools and community based organizations close foundation skills gaps reported by employers nationally and identified by ACT’s WorkKeys® program.  After successful but localized implementations of Keys2Work nationally, he led the formation of Smart Futures as a vehicle for implementing innovative career development programs statewide.  Smart Futures’ key competencies are superb outreach, training, and program implementation planning and support.

Contact David to see how Keys2Work might be used to help your region or state implement a large-scale career-based skill improvement and credentialing program.
