Skillsoft announced that they have collaborated with Microsoft to develop a comprehensive generative AI (GenAI) skilling programme for enterprises.

Leveraging Skillsoft’s AI Skill Accelerator, the programme is designed to upskill organisations and their workforce to effectively use Microsoft AI — including Copilot and Azure Open AI — and Gen AI technology more broadly to drive improved business productivity and innovation.

Generative AI brings limitless opportunity to organizations. We’re seeing this firsthand through Skillsoft’s internal adoption of Copilot for Microsoft 365 and its potential to enhance our efficiency, creativity, and ability to achieve key business objectives,” said Ron Hovsepian, Executive Chair, Skillsoft.

According to Skillsoft, its AI Skill Accelerator provides a blended learning experience, including on-demand courses, 1:1 and group coaching, live Instructor-Led Training (ILT), and hands-on practice labs.

Around 98% of learners participating in the initial pilot of the GenAI skilling programme reported being able to immediately apply the acquired knowledge and skills in their roles.

Designed to advance organisations and their talent through critical phases of AI maturity in as few as 90 days, the programme enables customers to:

·         Assess the current state of AI-related technology and leadership skills across the workforce through Skillsoft’s Skill Benchmarks;

·         Index skills to make data-driven decisions about where talent can drive strategic business outcomes with AI through Skillsoft’s dashboards;

·         Develop AIskills rapidly through emerging training methods powered by Microsoft’s Azure Open AI, such as Skillsoft’s AI-powered coach, CAISY™; and

·         Reassess existing talent and skills gaps through post-training benchmarks to put the right people in the right roles at the right time.
