We develop workforce skills for the AI economy

 
Our mission

We're democratizing access to vital skills

Data and digital literacy are the most important skills for the future of work. Yet, pervasive structural barriers hinder equitable access to vital training. This leads to widening skills gaps within organizations and feelings of stagnation among workers.



In response, we're democratizing access to key skills through employer-sponsored training, ensuring that every individual can thrive in the digital age.

Our approach

We customize learning solutions for organizational needs

 

In a world inundated with generic courses, the true value of learning for organizations and employees lies in tailored solutions that are integrated into team workflows and cater to specific business needs. At Correlation One, we deliver cost savings, revenue growth, and nurtured career pathways by:

  • customizing our curriculum to address each organization's unique and most pressing requirements
  • integrating new technologies and honing skills tailored to roles that organizations find challenging to fill
  • grounding our learning into tangible, company-specific projects and career tracks

By remaining at the forefront of evolving digital skills, we empower individuals to bridge crucial skills gaps and provide employers with access to the right talent and mobility solutions.

Our journey

We're committed to making a global impact

 

Since the start of Correlation One in 2015, we have launched training initiatives across 20 different countries, established a network of 1,000+ leading experts who are deeply invested in our learners' growth, and enabled tens of thousands of learners to gain critical skills and unlock new career opportunities.

We work with some of the world's largest enterprises and public sector organizations, including Amazon, Target, and the US Department of Defense. We're proud to help them develop talent and close data, digital, and technology skill gaps all while empowering underrepresented segments of the workforce.
