Developing cutting-edge skills isn’t just a priority—it’s a competitive necessity, as data from 2024 skilling trends revealed. According to TalentLMS, 71% of employees now seek more frequent skill updates, and 80% are calling on their organizations to prioritize upskilling and reskilling investments. Microsoft partners can turn this willingness to learn into an opportunity to drive innovation and growth: skilling trends in 2025 show growing demand for new, industry-specific skilling, particularly in AI and machine learning, cybersecurity, and data literacy and analytics. Studies also found a thirst for self-guided learning, bite-sized certifications, and career resilience. Microsoft is here to help meet that demand. We're dedicated to providing our partners with tools and opportunities to help your organization thrive in 2025 and beyond. We’ve developed skilling events around the world, such as bootcamps, workshops, and self-guided learning opportunities to strengthen sales and technical skills in the topics most critical to your organization.
