Scaling AI learning shouldn't cause workforce whiplash. Prove the ROI early, then let the results drive expansion. TEKsystems has a methodical approach: Start with a small AI pilot for sales roleplaying, then embed it into all sales onboarding, and finally, expand it to 500 new recruiters.

The most successful AI learning initiatives have three things in common: 1. A clearly defined use case(s) tied to business KPIs. 2. A stakeholder plan that speaks the internal audience’s language regarding outcomes. 3. A short, measurable pilot that’s designed to prove value, not just test functionality. Coincidentally, that’s also exactly how you get stakeholder buy-in for new AI learning tech. Get your guide on making a full business case. 👇 https://hubs.ly/Q04gSCT80

Skills intelligence isn't a feature. It's a discipline. It requires expertise in how skills are identified across a fragmented workforce. How learning signals translate into workforce data. How organizations go from, "We think we have a skills gap," to "Here's the evidence, and here's how we close it." But it no longer stops there. The next frontier is what you build on top of it, using AI to not only surface insights, but act on them. This agentic vision defines where Degreed is going, with Maestro shaping the experience. And today, we're announcing that Elizabeth Tan Levy is joining Degreed as our Chief Product Officer to support not only our skills intelligence capabilities, but our agentic AI vision. Liz has spent her career at the intersection of skill data, workforce intelligence, and AI-enabled product—most recently building an AI-enabled team at The Burning Glass Institute, and before that driving product-led growth across multiple stages at Lightcast. That's not a coincidence. That's a hire. Skills intelligence has a new CPO. And an agentic future. Welcome, Liz. → https://hubs.ly/Q04hZN470

Budgets are under pressure. CFO scrutiny is growing. Expectations are increasing. Resources are decreasing. But you can’t cut learning, you’re in the middle of massive AI transformation.

Pre-built courses are designed for an imaginary average learner. Let’s be honest: you’re not average (or imaginary). All courses, even adaptive ones, are pre-designed. That makes their customization for individual learners limited. We’re imagining something better: Dynamic, interactive courses that are made in the moment, for the moment. Curious?

Many L&D leaders are hitting the same wall: Despite the massive AI push, it feels like you still can't get buy-in on funding AI learning investments. Here's how teams actually get the yes: → Lead with use cases that map to the enterprise KPIs your CFO cares about (like sales ramp time and talent redeployment). → Do the math before the meeting. Know and be able to show how you can save millions in hiring costs (for example). → Prepare a one-page "AI Bill of Materials" to streamline compliance before IT asks (including data flows, governance protocols, safeguards, and more). → Once you do have approval, show ROI fast. Run a six-week pilot around one revenue-critical role and deliver an executive readout comparing baseline to results.

Every major AI transformation initiative has a technology plan. Very few have a people development plan to keep pace with it. This whitepaper is for the leaders closing that gap: https://hubs.ly/Q04dX8dp0 Let’s reimagine the way we build skills.

You don't need a tech stack, you need a tech ecosystem. If your platforms don't work together, then they won't work for you. Join our webinar with Udemy Business tomorrow to learn more about connecting your tools and designing a system that works: https://bit.ly/4tCX7WK

At consulting firms, people's skills are the product. And the human element is critical for success. That’s why, when ZS rolled out AI-powered coaching, they prioritized making it feel human first, and like AI second. That innovative coaching experience is just one piece of their skill development foundation. Jennifer Sutherland, Global Head of Learning Enablement, and her team built an entire infrastructure with Degreed that was meant to grow as fast as the firm does. Because it's all about being ready for the future! 🚀 #AICoaching #SkillsFirst #WorkforceTransformation
