We see technology transforming science with computational biology. We see generative AI finally getting driverless cars to the next level, and data changing even simple things\u2014like how each of us summarizes the next long email.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Change is everywhere. And people everywhere are struggling to keep up. But sometimes, we forget just how novel the speed of change is today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Civilization is about 6,000 years old. And for context, it took about 5,700 years to get the first mass-produced textbook. That\u2019s the beginning of the modern skill-building era.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For about 300 years after the first mass-produced textbook, the way people developed skills didn\u2019t really change. When my parents wanted to get ready for their careers, they boarded trains and traveled to build skills at centers of learning. The pace of change was slow, so it was okay that the tools they had were limited.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We operate in a world where expertise is everywhere. It\u2019s not just at schools or workplaces. It\u2019s captured on YouTube, on podcasts, and in chat threads. <\/p>\n\n\n\n All anyone today needs to do is formulate a question. In turn, the internet delivers resources needed to develop a skill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n But the unbelievable thing is that\u2014after 20 years of revolution in how knowledge and skills are developed\u2014everything in learning is changing again. With gains in artificial intelligence, for the first time we can imagine putting the world\u2019s greatest tutor in the pocket of every learner. We couple nearly infinite content with nearly infinite opportunities for personalization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For every industry, for every corporation, and for every individual, the possibilities are seemingly endless.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In today\u2019s world, a research scientist needs to know Python as much as they need to know lab research methods. A marketing professional needs the skills to prompt a generative AI system to test new ideas. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Leaders need to be able to understand and interpret data with the same savviness of skill that they built in subjects like communications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The exciting news is that the tools we can deploy to build skills are improving at an even faster rate than the pace of change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Unfortunately, even today, most learning software remains inflexible, optimized to check the box on learning requirements. When Degreed was founded, our team built the only learning platform designed to drive workforce transformation, not workforce requirements. We\u2019ve delivered this all on one consistent platform\u2014one data model, one integration layer, and one world class experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n But our work isn\u2019t done. The world is moving faster than ever.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Our aspiration is to make it simpler, faster, and more delightful for Degreed to help you\u2014as Ericsson CLO Vidya Krishnan<\/a> says\u2014turn the talent you have<\/em> into the talent you need<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n At the core of it all is our platform<\/a>. We believe that to deliver transformation, every company needs to be able to pinpoint needs, personalize development, and measure change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n That\u2019s precisely what Degreed is designed to do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Degreed skills technology<\/a> is built to create an actionable view on your organization’s needs and pinpoint development opportunities for each learner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Like with our approach to content, we don\u2019t believe that any one technique or skill technology will rule them all.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n It\u2019s our job to synthesize skill data from a variety of vendors, drive inference from across your environments, and synchronize all that information with the systems that matter most in your landscape. From there you can change your workflows with confidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The byproduct of pinpointing your needs through data is that Degreed serves the right learning to the right learner at the right time. This has been core to our business since Day One.<\/p>\n\n\n\n To drive the most engagement with development opportunities, we\u2019ve always helped you meet your learners where they are. We deliver Degreed across the web, on Android and iOS, through browser extensions, in Slack, and on Microsoft Teams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n And now, we\u2019re excited to extend our chat capabilities, to support learners in other copilots and chatbots. <\/p>\n\n\n\n But the data we have also confirms that not all skill building can happen in a chat thread or across a three-minute video. Our platform was designed to recognize and accommodate that. It\u2019s why we deliver deep skill building experiences in the form of Degreed Academies<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Flexibility to deliver programs across the short, medium, and long arcs of learning gives you the best opportunity to transform quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n No conversation about personalized development would be complete without AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Our investments into Degreed Automations<\/a> and a refreshed user experience lay the foundation for everything that\u2019s to come in an AI-first world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n And we couldn\u2019t be more excited to use new technologies to deliver the most personalized learning you can imagine. Imagine it – AI agents tuned for every learning experience. For starters, check out Degreed Maestro<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For the first time in history, AI makes it possible to teach to each individual, at an infinite scale. <\/p>\n\n\n\n We\u2019ve started to show the possibilities through the launch of our very public Degreed Experiments<\/a>. Thousands of you have already engaged. And the energy is only building.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The story of Degreed wouldn\u2019t be complete without one more pillar. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Learning has always<\/em> suffered from a lack of measurable ROI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This gap is why countries and cultures spend magnitudes more money educating young before they reach the workforce than afterward. And this is true even in the face of longer life expectancies, changing employment models, and technical skills that come and go faster than ever.<\/p>\n\n\n\n With analytics, badging, integration into data warehouses, and a slew of new benchmarking capabilities, Degreed is bringing the tools your team needs to demonstrate learning ROI. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Degreed helps you understand what to focus on, deliver the learning experiences to address those needs, and now gives you the capability to not only measure activity, but to also see the impact. <\/p>\n\n\n\n So far, the feedback from customers using our new benchmarking and learning analytics capabilities has been phenomenal. I\u2019d encourage everyone to try them out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Together, let\u2019s pinpoint needs, personalize development, and measure change. Let\u2019s make transformation possible. Let\u2019s build opportunities for every learner and drive success for your organization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If your appetite for innovation is growing, then good news! You can watch Degreed Vision 2024 on demand<\/a>.
