"Every employee is going to become a manager of AIs.”
This recent statement from you.com Co-Founder and CEO Richard Socher at the World Economic Forum captures the shift in how we will work in the age of AI. As AI becomes a normal part of common workflows, the ability to effectively manage and collaborate with AI tools and agents is no longer optional—it’s essential.
You.com’s commitment to education and enablement in our high-tech age became especially evident in the summer of 2024 when a global client with 2,500 employees approached you.com for a proof of concept. While the client sought to integrate AI into their workflows, it became clear that their teams needed more than just tools—they needed training. This realization inspired you.com to take action and create a solution that would empower not just enterprises but individuals everywhere to master generative AI (GenAI). The result? Today, we’re proud to announce the first-ever personalized GenAI training program, launched by you.com University in partnership with Inversity.
But first, why does everyone need to learn GenAI skills?
In a fast-paced world, generative AI is transforming industries by automating workflows, enhancing creativity, and driving productivity. To unlock its full potential, users must develop skills like prompt engineering—crafting precise instructions to guide AI systems effectively. These skills are critical for professionals across all industries, from marketing and design to data analysis and customer service.
According to recent research from Capgemini, 65% of leaders already see AI as a potential strategic "thought partner" in planning, risk evaluation, and decision-making. However, a lack of understanding around AI is inhibiting proper adoption, with 58% of leaders and managers citing the absence of formal AI training as a major challenge. Just 16% of employees said they have received adequate support to develop AI skills.
Recognizing this need, you.com is democratizing access to GenAI knowledge and skills. By offering two free courses in a new GenAI training program that is available for anyone with a you.com annual plan to get fully certified, the company is making AI education accessible. This initiative aligns with you.com’s mission to "accelerate human progress" and empower individuals to achieve their highest potential through human-AI collaboration.
