According to University of Phoenix Career Institute® 2023 Career Optimism Index® study, 70% of Americans say if their company gave them more opportunities to apply new skills, they would be more likely to stay throughout their career. A separate study by Deloitte found that 77% of business executive respondents agree their organization should help their workers become more employable with relevant skills.

“The workforce landscape is rapidly evolving, demanding new skills for an effective workforce,” states Bay. “Many organizations are considering skills-based hiring to stay competitive and attract diverse talent. However, transitioning to this approach involves complex changes across various systems and stakeholders. Join us to explore the challenges and strategies to start the transition to skills-based hiring.”
