Degreed unveils AI-powered tools to cut training costs and accelerate workforce learning
Degreed has unveiled new AI tools and partnerships to streamline learning, cut costs, and support workforce skills development at scale
Degreed, a learning platform focused on workforce transformation, has announced several AI-powered features during its annual Degreed LENS event.
The updates include enhancements to Degreed Maestro, the launch of Degreed Open Library, and new services to support enterprise learning operations.
Degreed Maestro Studio allows organizations to build and deploy custom AI-based learning experiences directly within the platform. The tool is already being used for leadership coaching, sales enablement simulations, and personalized skills training. Early access has been requested by more than 35 customers, including Bayer AG, Ericsson, and International Motors.
Degreed Open Library provides access to 500 curated learning pathways on high-demand topics. Available at no additional cost to Degreed customers, the content is generated and updated using AI and in-house expertise. Each pathway includes embedded AI support via Degreed Maestro to personalize the learning process.
Additional support services under the Degreed Maestro Services banner aim to reduce administrative overhead by offering AI-assisted content development and custom experience deployment.
“Degreed’s AI solutions enable us to reduce manual work, accelerate content curation, and optimize learning journeys for our employees,” says Tim Wheat, learning leader at International Motors.
Recognizing skills across the workforce
As part of its commitment to skills-based learning, Degreed is partnering with the American Council on Education (ACE) and Credly by Pearson. The agreement allows learning programs built within Degreed Academies to lead to formal, transferable credentials. Pearson will also provide market intelligence data to help organizations align training with current labor market demands.
“This partnership with ACE represents a significant stepping stone in that journey—enabling workers to gain verifiable, transferable credentials that follow them throughout their careers,” says David Blake, Co-CEO and Founder of Degreed.
