The cornerstone of modern enterprise talent development.

Employees are looking for more. The Skills U platform has been designed to meet the demands of the modern workforce, where continuous feedback and a remote-first culture are the new normal, and where in-demand skills are moving at an ever-increasing pace.

Attracting and Retaining Talent

Build your people up.

In the past, learning and development programs were aimed at boosting productivity. Today, it is about much more – bringing the best people to your organisation, and building them into the best version of themselves, so your company thrives.

Employment has shifted to emphasize value-driven roles, where employees expect personal and professional growth, with Learning & Development cited as the number one reason for joining an organization. But it is also the number one reason they leave, if they don’t see.

Developing People Capabilities

Skills don’t stand still.

People expect continuous L&D to build and optimise the value they bring to an organisation, and in today’s fast-paced world, it is outdated knowledge, skills and processes that hold talent and companies back.

Study after study shows that those actively investing in the next generation of leaders are reaping significant returns, with companies that invest in developing leaders are up to 2.4X more likely to hit their performance targets.

Building Value Based Cultures

Invest in people growth.

As the workforce in many companies becomes increasingly virtual and globally dispersed, Learning & Development helps to build a values-based culture and a sense of community.

In particular, millennials (who now make up more than half of the workforce) are particularly interested in working for values-based, sustainable enterprises that contribute to the welfare of society, and investing in learning and growth is paramount for living your company values.

Strengthening Your Employer Brand

Live and breathe your mission.

An organization’s brand is its biggest asset is communicating your success, and standing in industry. Strategic investments in Learning and Development elevates the company’s brand and helps cultivate a reputation as the employer of choice.

With significant segments of the workforce nearing retirement, employers face intensified competition for a diminishing talent pool. To stand out, they must explicitly convey their brand’s strength through a compelling employer value proposition.

Motivating and Engaging Employees

Add, then multiply.

Employee engagement thrives when people have access to meaningful learning and development, and are able to develop the skills they need in order to thrive. Studies continue to show that lifelong learning contributes significantly to happiness and fulfilment, and highly engaged employees who are given opportunities and a clear path to growth, are more likely to be energized by new projects, and motivated to becoming a driving force with your organization.
