Deloitte and HRCI have launched an academy to help human resources professionals with upskilling and certifications, according to a May 21 announcement.
The program is aimed at helping CHROs and their teams to remain skilled in an evolving work environment, according to the organizations.
“As the pace of change in the workplace accelerates, it is crucial for HR professionals to stay ahead of the skills needed to support their organizations,” said Kyle Forrest, Future of HR leader and principal at Deloitte Consulting LLP.
The HR Academy offers a wide range of learning options, Deloitte and HRCI said, including technical skills and leadership development. CHROs can use the academy to train their HR teams and foster a culture of continuous learning, the companies said.
The organizations said the program also offers customized learning experiences for different HR roles, ranging from entry-level roles to senior executives, as well as in-person sessions and strategic advisory services.
HR professionals can shape their long-term future in 2025 by upskilling and reskilling, experts previously told HR Dive. In an AI-driven era, the future of work will be defined by adaptability and continuous learning, one chief people officer said.
AI-based tools are shifting a range of HR functions. In the L&D field, for example, the technology is developing training almost automatically, according to The Josh Bersin Co; HR pros can use these tools to transfer existing legacy content — such as documentation, guidebooks and courses — into an engaging chat interface.
Likewise, it is automating sourcing and recruiting tasks, and recent research indicates that changes may accelerate even more in the next six months. According to one stakeholder, such advances have made access to training and tools more crucial than ever.
