According to our 2025 What Talent Wants survey, upskilling, professional development and clear career pathways ranked even higher than salary and traditional benefits as needs for professionals. This is why we were thrilled to host a summit dedicated to Upskilling and the Future of Work on April 22nd & 23rd.
Featuring over five hours of workshops and fireside chats, our featured thought leaders hosted deep dives into such topics as AI adoption, career reinvention, continuous learning and more.
We wrapped up the event with a virtual job fair featuring hundreds of open roles across all skill levels where we were also joined by career coaches providing expert resume advice and insights into getting hired in 2026.
