Do you know what
skills your people have?
Do you know what
skills they need next?
56%
of the workforce’s skill-sets do
not match changes in their
companies’ markets, strategies,
goals or business models.
ATD, Bridging the Skills Gap: Workforce Development is Everyone’s Business, 2015
Now, we learn a variety of skills over the entirety
of our careers
EDUCATION
2, 4, 8 years
WORK
50, 60, 70+ years
37%
of the skills employees use today were learned in the last year. 19% of
the skills they learned in the last year are no longer relevant.
CEB / Gartner, Preparing Employees for Shifting Skills Needs, 2018
Retooling L&D #DegreedFocus
We develop those
skills through an
infinite mix of
resources 79%
of learning now comes from
sources outside the central L&D
function.
