Description
Recent research by UpSkill America and the Institute for Corporate Productivity (i4cp) has found that:
- Only 25% of the HR leaders who took part in a December 2023 i4cp survey perceived workforce development as a strength of their organization.
- Just 9% of more than 100 private and public company board directors surveyed indicated they were very confident in their company’s ability to effectively upskill its employees for the future.
