QS and IBM Team Up to Close Education-to-Work Skills Gap
QS, the global higher education think-tank, and IBM have joined forces to help learners connect their career ambitions with the skills sought by employers. Under this initiative, QS will power IBM's SkillsBuild Career Navigator experience through its 1Mentor platform.
The partnership was announced at the 25th annual QS Back to School Summit in New York City, where education and business leaders gathered to discuss changing trends in education and workforce development.
Learners will be able to explore career pathways aligned with their interests, identify required skills for specific roles, and receive personalized recommendations for relevant IBM SkillsBuild courses and learning programs.
