IBM Think Academy
Introduction
The best way for businesses to remain relevant and address the evolving demands of digital is to cultivate talent. The best way to do that is through a carefully crafted internal learning initiative designed to meet the unique requirements of the company.
Approach
Develop a platform designed to help 400,000 IBMers across 97 countries learn, engage, and apply their expertise to key business initiatives while providing them with the skills needed to thrive in an increasingly complex and interconnected world. Through the integration of IBM Watson, evolve the platform from a content based framework to that of a personal learning advisor.
Ninety-six percent of all IBM employees have engaged with Think Academy's 32 courses, available in 11 languages and in 97 countries. That includes 10.2 million video views and 120K mobile app downloads.
The program earned IBM first place in the "Employee Education" category of Ragan's 2016 Employee Communication Awards.
