Degreed for IT Upskilling

Build the information technology skills your workforce needs for what's next

Hardware, telecom, and software change fast, and the information technology skills gap is starting to hit IT budgets. IDC puts the price tag at $5.5 trillion worldwide by 2026, and 93% of tech leaders already say their teams lack the skills to deliver on this year’s priorities (Robert Half). Add budget constraints, a scramble to build AI-ready infrastructure, and new compliance demands from rules like the EU AI Act, and upskilling in IT and cybersecurity is now a board-level priority. Use Degreed to build information technology skills as fast as the industry moves, for AI, cloud, security, and whatever’s next.
