Skillsoft has formed a strategic partnership with edX to integrate university-led and professional education directly into the Skillsoft Percipio Platform, strengthening how enterprises prepare their workforce for an AI-driven future. This collaboration will embed edX’s vast course catalog from top universities and industry partners into Skillsoft’s AI-driven skills management system. This will help organizations align learning investments with changing business and workforce needs. The partnership addresses an important issue: many companies struggle to spot skill gaps and connect learning to measurable results. Skillsoft found that just 10% of HR and learning leaders feel sure about their workforce readiness.

By linking academic learning with ongoing skills development, application, and tracking, organizations can create continuous, business-aligned learning journeys. “The future of work will be defined by how effectively organizations connect skills to the way work actually gets done,” said Ron Hovsepian, Chief Executive Officer, Skillsoft. “Learning delivers the most value when it stays connected to how skills are built and used across the organization,” said Matthew Glitzer, Chief Revenue Officer, Skillsoft. Andy Morgan, Chief Partnerships Officer, 2U, added that the partnership expands access to high-quality education where it can deliver immediate workplace impact.
