Employee Engagement in 2025: AI and the Future of Skills Training
Tuesday, January 21
2:00pm ET
AI is rapidly evolving from a “tool” to a “collaborator,” and in 2025, companies that embrace AI as a strategic partner will lead the way in skills training, internal mobility, and workforce transformation. As industries adapt to an unprecedented pace of change, organizations must rethink how they identify, develop, and deploy talent to engage employees and maintain competitive advantage.
While 50% of HR leaders believe they’re excelling in skills training and internal mobility, only 20% of employees agree. This gap could make or break your organization’s ability to thrive in a future where redeploying existing employees will be crucial for scalability and success.
Join Achievers Workforce Institute's David Bator as he sits down with Achievers' Hannah Yardley and Mercer's John Land to discuss cutting-edge research on skills development and actionable insights for navigating today's most critical workforce challenges.
Join us to learn:
- The key elements for creating high-impact development and internal mobility programs
- How AI-powered tools can bridge the skills gap and future-proof your workforce
- Best practices for designing internal mobility strategies that attract, retain, and engage top talent
