Expanding reach, improving outcomes and closing equity gaps
As a nonprofit, InsideTrack partners with philanthropic foundations to maximize our impact, expanding access to one-on-one success coaching that advances equity and helps all learners achieve their education and career goals. To date, we have supported over 3.2 million learners through our direct coaching, and we have positively impacted millions more by building internal coaching capacity within postsecondary institutions and workforce organizations, driving sustainable success for years to come.
Partnering with purpose-led funders and organizations, we spark change for all individuals — from a mosaic of backgrounds and circumstances — supporting them to:
Lean into their strengths
Connect to the resources and support around them
Build motivation that will help them gain economic and social mobility
For some, this means fueling equitable attainment of post-secondary degrees and certifications. For others, it’s advancing toward the next step in their career through job-specific credentials and programs. For all, funding can take them farther.
Driving social impact through the transformative power of coaching
Equity-Centered Mission
We are on a mission to close equity gaps and fuel social mobility by empowering and advancing all learners to achieve their goals — transforming lives and organizations while creating lasting social change.
Evidence-Based Methodology
Our evidence-based, research-confirmed methodology — listed in the U.S. Department of Education’s “What Works Clearinghouse” of evidence-based practices — is proven to help learners overcome obstacles, clarify goals and stay motivated to succeed.
Sustainable, Scalable Solutions
Through coaching development and training, we train organizational staff and leadership to use our coaching methodology, helping build in-house capabilities for long-term, sustainable success while supporting exponentially more learners.

Belk Endowment believe in a collaborative approach to philanthropy — and that’s part of the reason why NC Reconnect has been so successful in re-enrolling stopped-out students across the state.

Reconnect to Complete initiatives address the Some College, No Credential gap
One of InsideTrack’s key mission-driven initiatives is working with states, institutions and funders to find innovative solutions for helping adult learners get back to college to complete a credential or degree — ultimately fueling social and economic opportunities. Work is already underway in multiple states and institutional networks, and the initial results are strong. And expansive initiatives like this can’t happen without crucial funding support.
Launching a successful adult learner re-enrollment program takes a combination of campus leadership who can assess what non-traditional students need to succeed, and perhaps most importantly, a proven engagement model. InsideTrack’s coaching framework proved to be a pivotal difference that positively impacted students, demonstrating higher re-enrollment rates than we had hoped for.
