Even as the landscape of professional upskilling evolves rapidly, it is the AI-powered courses that are playing vital role in meeting industry expectations.

In today's dynamic and competitive world, the demand for skilled professionals is growing exponentially. However, did you know that a staggering 75 per cent of aspiring professionals find themselves grappling with the challenge of aligning their skills with industry needs? Additionally, while almost everyone is acquainted with ChatGPT, only a mere 1 per cent possess the prowess to harness its true potential, just as Vaibhav Sisinty aptly suggests. These statistics underscore the untapped power that AI holds, waiting to be unleashed by the right hands.

This stark reality highlights a significant gap between traditional education and the rapidly evolving demands of industries. This gap poses a challenge not only for aspiring professionals but also for businesses striving to find adequately skilled talent. Our story aims to delve deep into this ecosystem, highlighting the pressing need to bridge this gap effectively.

GrowthSchool was founded with a mission to bridge the divide between theoretical learning and real-world applications, they are at the forefront of addressing industry requirements through its innovative approach.

iMocha is a series A funded startup with a global presence that has always been at the forefront of driving innovation in the talent management industry, however as of recently, the company has revamped its value proposition with the first-of-its-kind Skills Intelligence Cloud which is set to reshape the landscape of skills-based talent management globally.

Talking to Bizz Buzz, Vaibhav Sisinty, Founder and CEO of GrowthSchool said, “When it comes to professional growth, if you're not moving forward, you're already lagging behind. The game has changed so much that what was revolutionary just a few years ago, is just the standard today, if not old news. As the landscape keeps evolving, so do the expectations employers have – they're not just asking for more, they're expecting top-notch talent.”

In a world that is advancing at lightning speed, continuous learning is not an option. It is the backbone of a sustainable career. That's why AI-powered upskilling isn't just a buzzword – it's the lifeline of our workforce. It helps sharpen our focus, directing us to the skills that matter, precisely when they matter. Embracing AI-driven education is about staying in sync with the pulse of innovation and setting the pace in our industries, he added.

Amit D Mishra, Founder and CEO, iMocha said, “In a world where new skills are emerging so fast and certain skills are getting obsolete at a much faster pace, Artificial Intelligence is transforming how we learn and adapt. It's like a guiding light in the journey of picking up new skills and refreshing our existing ones. With AI, we get lessons designed just for us, assessments that adjust to our needs, and a collection of helpful content. AI also brings interactive elements like chatbots, virtual reality, and augmented reality into play, making learning more engaging and real.”

On top of that, AI looks at the skills data from our learning efforts, helping organizations understand how we're doing and how they can make things even better. This helps to plug the looming skills gap in emerging tech and industries and making sure we're all ready for the jobs that lie ahead, he added.
