These are the upskilling trends to watch in 2023

With the new year almost upon us, it’s a great time to reflect on how our employees are set up for success within our organizations and in their careers. With a murky economic outlook on the horizon, here are a few upskilling trends to be aware of heading into the new year.

Investment in current employees

In 2023, look for organizations to ramp up investment on their own employees through upskilling opportunities. This can include training programs to create a deeper knowledge of their career path or opportunities that fosters growth across the organization.

A commonly held trope in the labor market is that it’s always cheaper to retain an employee than go out into the open market and find a new one. Between job cuts and an uncertain economy, look for more companies to pour resources into their own workers in 2023 as they seek to build strength from within.
