Human Capability Standards

Capability.Co is built out of the globally renowned
Human Capability Standards Reference Framework.

Professor Marcus Bowles and the Institute For Working Futures (IWF) have spent the last 30 years conducting dedicated research to identify the human capabilities and mindsets that are most predictive in creating a future ready workforce, career, profession or graduate. These findings led to the creation of the globally renowned Human Capability Standards (HCS).

In partnership with Professor Marcus Bowles, Capability.Co turned this research into a game-changing suite of practical tools. Capability.Co now operates as the commercial arm of the Institute For Working Futures with exclusive commercial rights to the HCS.

The HCS are recognised as world’s best practice.
