Talent leaders can now confidently shape an AI-ready workforce with verifiable skills intelligence

VANCOUVER, BC, Dec. 2, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Visier, the globally recognized leader in Workforce Intelligence, and JobKred, a leading provider of skills-based workforce transformation solutions in Asia Pacific, today announced a strategic partnership. This new alliance brings essential skills intelligence and insights, ensuring businesses can quickly address the critical gaps which are accelerated by AI adoption and a retiring workforce.

To help navigate talent shortages and the rapid shift to AI, organizations must first build a resilient workforce. That journey starts with clearly mapping existing skills and precisely addressing deficiencies. 

This new partnership delivers those capabilities to APAC organizations, combining Visier's advanced workforce analytics with JobKred's verified skills platform. Leaders can now gain the clarity to transition to a skills-based workforce model and drive measurable business outcomes. The solution enables the proactive reduction of skills gaps and ensures every talent decision is data-driven, maximizing L&D ROI and boosting employee retention.

"The shift to a skills-based organization is a critical competitive advantage in today's dynamic market, and it begins with data-driven clarity," said Lee Boon Huat, SVP, Growth & Strategy, Visier APAC. "Our partnership with JobKred is a direct response to the rising demand in APAC for solutions that bridge people analytics and career growth. By combining Visier's actionable insights with JobKred's skills data, we empower leaders to cultivate a truly adaptable workforce."

This integrated solution will enable HR and business leaders to:

• Identify Critical Skill Gaps: Use advanced analytics to pinpoint current and future skills shortages based on business strategy and external market trends.
• Personalize Employee Growth: Guide employees toward relevant learning pathways and career moves that align with both their aspirations and organisational needs.
• Measure Transformation ROI: Quantify the impact of skills development programs on key business outcomes, including productivity and retention.

"Asia Pacific is at a pivotal moment. Companies know they need to move to skills-based models but often lack the data and tools to make it happen," said Gary Gan, CEO and Co-Founder, JobKred. "This partnership between JobKred and Visier gives organizations in the region the end-to-end capabilities to make workforce transformation real, measurable, and scalable. By combining JobKred's skills intelligence with Visier's workforce analytics, we're laying the foundation for a skills-first future, where talent decisions are powered by data, and every upskilling investment is linked to tangible business outcome."
