Technology and job roles are shifting quickly, which means HR leaders face a big question: How can HR teams equip a workforce with the right skills for a future that’s still being mapped out?
At Degreed, we know effective upskilling is about more than just predicting trends. It’s about creating a lasting roadmap for talent growth.
That’s why we’re thrilled to announce a new partnership with Pearson. We’re combining our strengths to help you pinpoint essential skills, personalize learning, and measure meaningful progress.
The Power of Pinpointing Skills
Imagine trying to prepare your team for tomorrow’s challenges without a clear picture of which skills will be most relevant.
With Faethm by Pearson market intelligence embedded in Degreed, you can create a roadmap for your company’s future. You’re armed with insights into skills not only trending today but forecasted to grow, evolve, and impact your industry tomorrow. It’s a level of detail that allows you to visualize your organization’s strengths and spot gaps at the macro and micro levels.
By comparing your current workforce skills to industry standards, you can take proactive steps to keep your team agile and prepared for what’s next.
Think of it as seeing around the corner—a glimpse into the future that helps HR leaders like you make informed choices on the skills that matter most.
Crafting a Personalized Learning Journey
What good is knowing your destination if you don’t have a map to get there? With the Degreed platform enhanced by Faethm data insights you’re able to chart a learning journey uniquely tailored to the demands of your organization and the personal development needs of every employee.
Instead of a one-size-fits-all approach, you’re now guiding employees through development experiences directly tied to their roles and the unique growth targets you’ve set for them.
Let’s say you have an employee looking to advance in project management or data analytics. With Degreed, you can deliver personalized content to help your employee meet their goals, or you can create a pathway that will hone their skills in ways that will directly impact your organization’s goals. This targeted learning not only enhances engagement, but it also accelerates the journey from learning to impact.
“AI is rapidly transforming the way we work,” said Vishaal Gupta, President of Workforce Skills at Pearson. “And one thing is clear. The future belongs to those who are prepared with the right skills at the right time… As AI continues to reshape the way we work, this partnership between Degreed and Pearson ensures your workforce is not just ready for today but for the future ahead.”
Measuring and Celebrating Real Change
How do you know your efforts are paying off? That’s where our integration with Credly by Pearson comes in, bringing a level of validation that transforms progress into achievement.
Each milestone and newly acquired skill can be verified with digital badges, providing a clear, shareable proof of the journey your workforce is making. With these badges, you’re not only fostering a culture of accomplishment, but you’re also creating a visible return on learning investments.
For HR leaders, this verification is a powerful way to measure progress in real time, celebrate the gains made, and make data-driven adjustments to learning strategies when needed. It’s a way to showcase the tangible growth happening across your teams and create momentum around skill development that benefits your people and your organization.
