How access to upskilling is becoming a sought-after employee benefit -- and a powerful talent attraction tool
As the U.S. economy recovers from the impact of COVID-19, upskilling programs -- defined as training or education that teaches new skills or advances existing skills -- present a compelling opportunity for workers and businesses.
Gallup, commissioned by Amazon, conducted the most comprehensive study to date on upskilling -- The American Upskilling Study: Empowering Workers for the Jobs of Tomorrow.
The survey found that upskilling is becoming a sought-after employee benefit and powerful attraction tool for employers amid the current labor shortage.
