Pearson intends to use the platform to launch new products and transform its internal operations, with particular focus on workflows, productivity and data-driven decision-making.
“ Technology is evolving faster than human skills can keep pace” says Omar Abbosh, CEO of Pearson.“ To close this gap, learning must be embedded seamlessly into the flow of work. When people learn where work happens, it has an immediate impact on productivity and performance.”
The partnership establishes Pearson as IBM’ s primary strategic partner for upskilling and workforce transformation. IBM’ s 270,000 employees and its customer base will gain access to Pearson’ s enterprise learning solutions: Credly for digital credentialing, Faethm for workforce planning and Pearson Professional Assessments, which currently delivers IBM’ s professional certification exams globally.
