Pearson VUE is a global leader in professional certification administering nearly 21 million certification and licensure exams annually (an exam every 1.5 seconds) in sectors spanning technology, healthcare, finance, and more. Each year, millions of professionals and 400+ organizations trust its professional testing programs to verify essential job-related skills and accelerate careers.

Addressing the Global Skills Gap 

Pearson's new Lost in Transition: Fixing the "Learn to Earn" Skills Gap report reveals that inefficient career transitions and related learning gaps cost the U.S. economy alone $1.1 trillion annually. The report calls for improved, next-generation skills pathways and learning strategies to help to close the widening gap between available talent and employer demands.

"Pearson's new Skilling Partner program extends and helps deliver on our commitment to enterprise and professional learning," said Art Valentine, president for Pearson Assessment and Qualifications. "As technology impacts the global workforce, quick skill acquisition and validation have become crucial. Our Pearson Skilling Partner program creates a more responsive and convenient skills development ecosystem that equips people, employers, and economies with the modern skills needed to excel in our tech- and AI-powered future."

The new Skilling Partner program combines Pearson's established certification infrastructure with expanded learning resources. Participating skilling partners and learners can gain access to over 60 in-demand IT certification courses, comprehensive learning tools through the new Pearson Skilling Suite, and an extensive Training Marketplace featuring more than 2,000 courses.

Authorized Pearson VUE Test Centers and skilling providers can apply to participate in the Pearson Skilling Partner program starting March 31, 2025.
