About
Organizations are under constant pressure to attract and retain people with the right skills to achieve their business objectives and remain competitive in the market. Upskilling and reskilling are key to future proofing your organization and closing that skills gap – but it takes more than simply putting content and instruction in front of your employees.

In this VB Spotlight, you'll learn how to develop a robust upskilling strategy optimized for how your employees learn, where their abilities stand and exactly what they need to know. You'll hear how companies address the full spectrum of technical training needs by assessing all skills and skill gaps for more effective learning, developing a guided curriculum focused on skills needed for rapid productivity, applying skills learned in real time, and more.

Presented by VentureBeat x Skillsoft.
