Supporting the initiative is SkillSpring, Cognizant’s proprietary training platform, which will provide structured learning in AI fluency, process design, data interpretation, and operational leadership to prepare professionals for these emerging roles. Commenting on the initiative, Thirumala Arohi, Senior Vice President and Head of Learning and Development at Cognizant, said, “The question every enterprise is asking is why AI results aren’t showing up yet. The answer is talent and process.” Kathy Diaz, Chief Human Resources Officer of Cognizant, added, “We are making a deliberate bet on the next generation,” emphasizing the company’s commitment to building an AI-ready workforce at scale.
