NEW PORT RICHEY, Fla., – January 31, 2024: Skillable, the pioneer in hands-on learning and skill validation, launches new product integrations that make hands-on skill assessments feel seamless and validates skill data for use in the wider learning and HR ecosystem. The product enhancements make Skillable’s award-winning labs more impactful, engaging and scalable across all of an organization’s learner cohorts including customers, partners and employees.
To date, over 6.4 million learners have used a Skillable lab to build skills in critical areas such as cloud computing, AI and machine learning, data engineering, cybersecurity and more. In 2024, over 10 million labs were launched to learners to support customer and partner training, employee upskilling, certification and demos or workshops at live events.
Richer financial insights
The flexibility of the Skillable platform allows it to be used across many different areas of a business, with organizations using it to generate additional revenue as well as train their people. Additional invoice reporting within the Skillable Insights data analytics platform now allows admins to view and download historical invoices for Skillable services directly within the platform. This will help users to keep track of financial data related to lab billing.
Launching performance-based skill validation within Degreed
Within Degreed, Skillable is also launching the first native performance-based skill validation integration into the SkillsTech ecosystem. Mutual customers can enhance employee skill profile data with validated, scenario-based insights by seamlessly leveraging Skillable validation labs for business-critical skills. As learners need to complete pre-configured tasks within a lab to validate their ability to perform a skill at work, the data generated through Skillable and populated in Degreed skills profiles is highly trusted, accurate and timely. Learners within Degreed can also search for specific skills and find a Skillable lab to practice or validate that skill. In successfully completing and passing a lab that is intended for skill validation, the learner will have a new Skill Rating added to that skill in their Degreed profile.
Industry recognition
For the 14th consecutive time, Skillable was recognized as a Virtual IT Labs leader in the G2 Winter 2025 report. Alongside this, Skillable gained 50 badges, the most it has been awarded in a single quarter, including 11 leader badges with category wins for ‘Ease of Implementation’, ‘Usability’ and ‘Results.’
Skillable also made the Top 10 Learning Systems list from The Craig Weiss Group. Authoring tool Skillable Studio, pre-made templates and Skillable’s lab creating and lab financial management features were highlighted by the analyst group.
