AI is changing how work gets done—and organisations are investing heavily in the tools, platforms, and learning needed to keep pace. But the next challenge is no longer simply delivering learning. It’s making sure learning happens where work happens, translates into real capability, and ultimately drives measurable business outcomes.

Skills that Perform explores how organisations can move beyond traditional learning metrics to build a more connected, measurable approach to skills development—one that meets employees in the flow of work, validates what they can actually do, and turns skills data into clear actions.

Key Discussion Areas

• Bring learning into the flow of work : Move beyond standalone learning destinations by embedding relevant learning into the tools and workflows employees already use.
• Move from completion to capability : Go beyond course completion as a measure of success. Explore how organisations can validate whether employees can actually apply what they’ve learned and close the knowing-doing gap.
• Turn skills data into actionable insight : With more learning and skills data than ever, the challenge is making sense of it. Understand how to move from fragmented reports and dashboards to clear insights on team progress, business impact, and what to do next.
• Connect skills to business performance : Shift the conversation from “Did people learn?” to “Are our people getting better, and is that making a difference to the business?”

Core Takeaway:

The future of learning isn’t about creating more learning activity. It’s about building skills that perform—in the flow of work, demonstrated through capability, and connected to measurable business outcomes.
