The world still needs human intelligence (and so do employers) 

Understanding how to work with AI isn't just helpful—it's your golden ticket to a thriving career. That’s one of the key takeaways from our 2025 Workforce Skills Forecast. And while there’s disruption ahead, the demand for skilled workers isn’t slowing—it’s growing.  

The Agentic

Amplification

Technology doesn’t replace vision; 
it executes it 

Agentic AI isn't just another workplace technology—it's the seismic shift that will amplify human ability. It can orchestrate entire workflows, make decisions, and deliver results while you sleep. 

The transformation opportunities are tremendous. We know because our research partners at Pearson used AI to predict how AI will change work in the coming years. Meta? Maybe. Accurate? Absolutely.
