Curated digital learning and ProEdge Credentials

Employees can either choose their own learning pathways or follow specific paths created for them based on ProEdge’s analysis of the company’s current capabilities and skills gaps.

ProEdge’s Learn environment includes behavioral learner assessments and industry-leading content tailored to employees’ skill levels. Many modules offer bite-sized learning so people can learn on their own terms whenever they can fit it into their schedules. There are also features to make learning fun and engaging, including trivia games and social networks that connect learners.  

Learners can read, watch or listen to content according to their preferences, with options including infographics, videos, podcasts, short courseware and long-form articles. Content is compatible with laptop and desktop computers, as well as mobile devices for on-the-go learning. 

Milestones and dashboards measure and track both individual and organizational progress. Learners can get insights throughout the learning journey as they acquire knowledge and skills that they can quickly apply to their work.

Respected credentials

PwC has won more than 40 awards for excellence in learning since 2008. We developed the ProEdge Credentials with guidance from organizations such as The Lumina Foundation’s Connecting Credentials Framework, which has eight levels of requirements and competencies  shaped by input from dozens of global colleges, accreditation agencies and policy organizations. 

ProEdge courses culminate in capstone projects that require learners to complete tasks based on real-world business scenarios in specific functions. The project is then evaluated by a professional in that field. When a learner successfully completes a capstone project, they earn a credential that demonstrates their ability to put relevant new skills into practice.

These function-specific activities also include real-time coaching and an evaluation of work so learners can improve their skills and refine their approach. If they don’t succeed the first time, they can revise and resubmit their projects.

What does this look like for learners and their employers? Let’s consider employees in finance. An example of a function-specific capstone project in data analytics requires them to demonstrate their ability to acquire, cleanse and explore financial data. The employees use digital tools to build a dashboard that conveys trends and insights to better inform decision-making across business units. Their Decisions with Data Insights in Finance credential from ProEdge will help them add value to the business immediately. 

Learners can seek ProEdge Credentials in over 20 functional areas, including:

• Actuary/Risk management

• C-Suite

• Customer Success

• Finance

• Front Line

• HR & Learning

• IT/CIO 

• Legal

• Maintenance

• Marketing

• New Products & Commercialization

• Project Management Office

• Research & Development

• Sales

• Service Delivery

• Supply Chain & Procurement

HR and LMS integrations

ProEdge is an end-to-end upskilling platform that can integrate with learning management systems (LMS) to enhance existing training plans.

During the initial plan phase, ProEdge can be optimized for an organization’s specific needs, as well as individuals’ specific skill gaps or skill mismatches.

Once employee data is incorporated into ProEdge, the platform synthesizes recommendations and creates a dashboard that benchmarks the entire organization’s workforce skills against industry standards and develops organized learning pathways tailored to the business’s needs.

ProEdge Plan maps out how many individuals need to be upskilled and in what areas. It also shows which employees need foundational skills development and which are ready for intermediate or advanced training. Then it creates and assigns customized learning pathways for each of them.

ProEdge works in conjunction with major HR and learning systems including:

• Adobe Captivate Prime

• Brightspace / Desire2Learn

• Cornerstone OnDemand

• Docebo

• Microsoft

• Oracle PeopleSoft

• SAP SuccessFactors & SAP Litmos

• Ultimate Kronos Group

• Workday

Reimagine how work gets done

Giving your workforce an engaging and interactive way to learn new digital skills can encourage a culture of continuous education, reshape roles across the organization and move the company closer to achieving its goals.

These learning approaches include highly personalized learning pathways, curated premium content from respected providers and on-the-go mobile compatibility for busy lifestyles. And gamified quizzes, podcasts and infographics support each person’s learning preferences and encourage employees to come back for more training.

HR and other senior leaders can track each person’s progress toward skill mastery and see the skill gaps shrink through the dashboarding tool. In addition, capstone projects and ProEdge credentials affirm that employees absorbed the knowledge and are ready to begin using their new skills right away.

ProEdge enables your people to perform at their highest level — empowering them to help transform your entire organization.
