Marvin OnumonuPearson and Deloitte have formed a new alliance to deliver talent, leadership and workforce development solutions for enterprises and government organisations.
The partnership will see both companies use their industry experience to create products and services focused on artificial intelligence (AI) learning, leadership development and learning solutions for customers and partners.
The alliance aims to address market needs, including new learning capabilities powered by AI, covering industry and in-role skills intelligence platforms, scaled learning, content delivery, assessment and credentialing.
These services are designed to help leaders, employees and pre-career talent adapt and to support organisations globally.
Deloitte will also support Pearson’s adoption of AI across its portfolio and will use Pearson’s AI-driven learning products and services internally.
Omar Abbosh, CEO at Pearson, said: “Technology is reshaping the workplace faster than ever, and the most critical skill today is the ability to learn.
“As the half-life of skills shortens, organisations need learning that’s continuous, adaptive, and embedded in the flow of work.
“Our alliance with Deloitte brings together Pearson’s learning science and AI-powered products with Deloitte’s transformation expertise – helping employers build the agility and capability they need to thrive. Together, we’re enabling people to learn, grow and perform at scale.”
Joe Ucuzoglu, global CEO at Deloitte, said: “Developing a future-ready workforce is at the forefront of every organisation’s strategic agenda.
“Through this collaboration, we are bringing to market Deloitte’s leading capabilities spanning engineering, reimagining the future of talent and skills, workforce design experience, and Pearson’s world-class learning and skills solutions.
“Together, we will help clients shape and adapt to the changing nature of work and build sustainable, innovative workforces for the future.”
