Boston, MA (USA), February 2026 - Skillsoft, the leading AI-native skills management platform built for the human + AI era, has announced the general availability of its next-generation Skillsoft Percipio® Platform. The announcement reflects the growing need among enterprises for a stronger connection between learning, skills development, and business performance.
AI is accelerating change across every industry and role. Skills that mattered a few years ago are no longer enough, and future needs are still being defined. Global research shows that roughly 40% of core workplace skills are expected to change by 2030 as AI and emerging technologies reshape how work gets done. This pace of change is putting new pressure on organizations to understand workforce readiness and impact.
"Customers are telling us the challenge is bigger than simply access to learning," said Ron Hovsepian, Chief Executive Officer of Skillsoft. "The challenge is knowing whether their workforce is ready for what’s next. As work changes faster, organizations need clarity and results. They need to understand which skills matter, where they stand today, and how their talent development connects to real outcomes. That shift is driving the move toward end-to-end skills management."
The Skillsoft Percipio Platform
The Skillsoft platform brings learning and skills management together, giving organizations one place to see capability, build skills, and apply them where they drive the most impact.
Key capabilities include:
With the next-generation Skillsoft Percipio Platform, organizations can map, build, and measure skills at scale to strengthen workforce readiness. They can act on emerging gaps through development and reskilling, rather than relying on guesswork or hiring alone. This allows leaders to direct learning investment with greater precision and get more value from the talent they already have as work continues to change.
