With IT skills needing to be upgraded faster than ever, a growing number of tech leaders are setting up internal learning academies to help train their teams—and sometimes their entire companies.
Other prominent companies that have launched internal academies to hone tech workers’ skills include pharma giant Moderna, IT software business Adobe and credit-card and banking company Discover Financial Services. Of course, internal training programs are nothing new; what is new is the increasingly important role they’re playing in helping businesses adapt to a much faster clock speed of digital change.
That trend is reflected in surveys such as a recent one of over 750 tech workers in various industries conducted by online training provider Pluralsight. Three quarters of respondents to the poll said their loyalty to their organizations was influenced by the amount of resources the businesses’ devoted to skills development.Toyota Financial Services
