Tech Skills Academy provides structured education pathways aligned to critical technology roles, including areas such as artificial intelligence, infrastructure, DevOps, cybersecurity and data analytics. The offering is designed to help organizations reduce reliance on external hiring by giving employees a clearer path to build technical skills and helping them advance into critical roles. “Organizations are rethinking how they develop technology talent,” said Scott Deming, CEO of Workforce Edge. “Tech Skills Academy helps employers create a more sustainable approach by building needed skills internally and supporting employees as they move into top priority roles.” Tech Skills Academy is industry agnostic and can support employers across sectors that are facing technology talent shortages. The offering connects employees to career-aligned learning from education providers including Simplilearn, Emerge Education, Strayer University and Capella University. The launch comes as employers continue to face pressure to modernize their technology capabilities while navigating a limited pipeline of skilled talent. Rapid advances in areas such as artificial intelligence, cloud infrastructure, cybersecurity and data analytics are increasing demand for technical skills across industries. The challenge for employers is significant: the tech workforce is expected to grow twice as fast as the overall U.S. workforce in the next 10 years. “Technology needs are changing quickly, and many organizations cannot rely on external hiring alone to fill critical roles,” said Meggie Enxuto, Principal of Technology Education Solutions at Workforce Edge. “Tech Skills Academy gives employers a way to connect education, skills development and career mobility in a more intentional way.” Tech Skills Academy supports employers looking to move beyond traditional education benefits toward workforce development strategies that are tied to business needs. By aligning learning pathways with priority roles, the solution is designed to help organizations strengthen internal mobility, improve retention and develop more resilient talent pipelines.
