Technology & Developer
Skillsoft delivers training to more technology professionals than any other corporate learning company. Every year, we deliver 26 million hours of learning content to more than 5 million learners worldwide. Continual learning is an organization’s most important tool in adapting to this unprecedented technology transformation where new roles are rapidly evolving, new skill sets are required and business and technology sides of the business are increasingly converging.
To ensure they can retain talent, organizations need to provide enterprise technology professionals and software developers with access to an abundance of multi-modal resources to prepare for certification exams, trouble-shoot on demand, or acquire new technical skills. Finally, an area often overlooked for technology professionals is soft skills – these are crucial for developing effective leaders and communicators.
Skillsoft offers an unparalleled solution, developed in conjunction with our industry-leading experts who carefully curate multi-modal resources into hundreds of learning channels. These channels incorporate several learning modalities including video learning, hands-on practice labs, virtual mentoring and access to the largest library of leading certification prep books and audiobooks.
Leadership Development
The Skillsoft Leadership Development Program addresses the changing way in which organizations need to develop their leaders by providing a scalable, cost-effective, and engaging leadership development experience designed for the modern, digital learner. The courses support the following new competencies for leading in the digital economy, including:
– The Agile Leader: Perseverance and Flexibility
– Leading Virtually
– Leading Innovation
– Leading Through the Challenge of Change
– Embracing Diversity in Leadership
– Leading with Digital Technology
– Leading Through Disruption
– Leading a Customer-Centric Culture
– And more
A unique learning design and scenario-based pedagogy set the Skillsoft Leadership Development Program apart in the market. Skillsoft’s unique approach leverages a common set of characters throughout the curriculum, including a “leader mentor.” Through compelling drama and pragmatic storytelling, Skillsoft models the critical human-interaction elements of leadership and demonstrates effective implementation strategies within the team context, allowing learners to tie learning to on-the-job leadership behaviors.
Learners also benefit from a wide array of tools and application resources, including reflection questions, knowledge checks, post-course assessments, facilitation guides, leader-led activities and exercises. Additionally, close to 800 carefully curated video-based assets, books, book summaries, audio books and expert-authored content extend the learning.
Business Skills
High-performing organizations know their competitive advantage is directly tied to their ability to develop and deploy their talent effectively, reinforced by access to training programs that not only align to business objectives but support project execution. Today execution happens in mission-based teams, with a rate of change that requires individuals to be nimble and prepared for a new responsibility at any time. A learning solution must have a broad base of content topics and modalities and be available when needed.
Skillsoft’s business skills courses are designed for modern learners. We’ve created fresh, new business skills videos in a variety of formats including scenario-based storytelling, animation, and panel discussions with subject matter experts.
Digital Transformation
Digital transformation is driving a convergence of business and management skills with traditional IT skills. This convergence is causing companies to rethink existing organizational structures, create new roles and recruit and develop new skill sets and competencies among their workforces. Primary research with Skillsoft customers highlights that more than two-thirds of all organizations believe they do not have the right skillsets, competencies or operating models to adapt in the shifting digital economy.
Digital Transformation Fundamentals for Business features more than 50 video-based courses across seven competency domains: Essentials of Digital Transformation, Data Science, Digital Experiences, Agility for Digital Transformation, Digital Marketing & Communications, Virtual Work and Digital Soft-skill Competencies.
