WorkingNation Overheard: Matt Riley on the pathway to professional careers

When CEO Matt Riley co-founded Blueprint Test Prep, he says the goal of the company was to make the pathway to and through professional schools – like law or medical – attainable.

Riley explains what the company provides, “Everything from entrance exam test prep through supporting people when they're in school to certifications.”

He notes that the area of primary focus is health care. “We're dedicated to giving people education and training that we think will make them more successful, more satisfied, improve their life. Once they get to these very high stakes, challenging careers, hopefully what that will do is decrease the burnout and help solve some of this crisis that we're seeing in the country.”

Riley says the company also recognizes the expense of these professional career pathways. He says services and support are provided via full or partial scholarships to students who demonstrate financial need.

WorkingNation sat down with Riley at SXSW EDU in Austin.
