Build Your Own Practice. Strengthen an Ecosystem. Shape the Future of Work.
Today’s workforce challenges demand leaders who can bridge education and industry with clarity, empathy, and strategic insight. E2i Impact Architects are not traditional consultants — they are trusted partners who guide institutions and employers in co-creating outcome-based learning aligned to the real needs of the workforce.
If you’re an independent professional looking to build meaningful work, deepen your impact, and create stability in a changing market, the E2i network gives you the platform, support, and community to do it — without going at it alone.
A New Path for Independent Experts
As an independent contractor, you can design work around your life — while aligning with a trusted national ecosystem that brings consistency, tools, and opportunity.
E2i Impact Architects help organizations navigate complexity with confidence.
You’re independent, but integrated into something bigger.
You own your business.
We strengthen your platform.
Together, we support the institutions shaping the future.
What Defines an E2i Impact Architect
Impact Architects bring deep experience in learning, leadership, workforce development, or education — but more importantly, they bring the mindset of:
Guide, not vendor
Facilitator, not implementer
Strategic partner, not traditional consultant
You help institutions and employers work together in ways they cannot achieve alone — using shared expertise, structured collaboration, and outcome-oriented design.
Ideal backgrounds include:
Leadership development • Higher education • Corporate L&D • Workforce innovation • Curriculum/assessment expertise • Economic development • Work-based learning strategy.
Bachelor’s Degree Required. Masters or PhD preferred.
