Digital Workforce Launches Agentacademy.ai to Accelerate Enterprise Ai Literacy and Upskilling Digital Workforce Services Plc announced the launch of agentacademy.ai, an online learning platform designed to meet the growing demand for AI literacy and expertise in enterprise AI agents. AI agents have captured significant attention in the business world, being named the #1 Strategic technology trend of 2025 by Gartner and generating considerable interest across industries.

In the job market, there is an increasing need for managers, creators, and shepherds of AI agents. New roles are emerging that involve AI business analysts, AI training, agent building, and related skills, creating exciting opportunities for forward-thinking professionals. Key Highlights of agentacademy.ai: Targeted Curriculum: Understanding Agentic AI: A free crash course for foundational knowledge.

Recognized Certifications: Shareable credentials to showcase expertise. Humans will continue to play a crucial role in developing and using AI agents, especially in the near term. While AI agents are designed to take actions to achieve goals, they are not yet fully autonomous and require human input and oversight in key areas such as goal setting, planning, design, data management, execution oversight, and training. A recent World Economic Forum report highlighted that 77% of surveyed employers plan to implement reskilling and upskilling strategies for their existing workforce to work with AI by 2030. Through agentacademy.ai, Digital Workforce aims to address this need, ensuring organizations can leverage AI responsibly and effectively. agentacademy.ai is now live, with its first courses available.
