EdBridge Survey Reveals Employers Care More About Skills Than Certifications and Announces Programs to Help Workers Bridge the Gap

Experience the next generation of employment skills training at EdBridge. Rather than relying on outdated certifications that don’t teach the skills employers need, level up with one-to-one mentorship, practical hands-on training tools, and professional experience.

-- “We are trying to bridge the gaps in the market by focusing on two things—skills and professional experience,” EdBridge founders said. “We are here to change the education industry forever.”

A recent LinkedIn survey shows that 62% of employers care more about workers' skills than their degrees and certifications. Numerous technological developments over the past decade have fundamentally changed the employment landscape. EdBridge fills the gap between certifications and the in-demand skills employers need, ensuring clients are prepared as they venture into the job market. 

EdBridge shifts the focus away from often outdated training programs and certifications that don’t hold the same weight they used to in the job market. By focusing education on in-demand, practical skills, clients can upgrade their earning potential while learning the tools they need to thrive in the digital age.

EdBridge offers human resources, marketing, tech, and sales training programs. Go beyond the accreditations and learn the skills employers need. Some predatory training institutions push expensive and unnecessary certifications but only provide outdated programs that don’t align with the skills companies are willing to pay for. Unfortunately, many lack the awareness and knowledge they need to succeed in the global job market. 

According to a recent report from the World Economic Forum, artificial intelligence (AI) automation could replace as many as 50% of repetitive jobs. By contrast, a PwC report indicates that 90% of employers believe upskilling is vital to career growth. Nearly the same percentage of hiring managers at LinkedIn said the lack of soft skills is currently the most substantial barrier workers elevating their careers face. With as many as half of college graduates feeling unprepared for the workforce and as few as 37% working in a job related to their degree, workers are left to fill the gap with additional training.

There doesn’t seem to be much point in investing all the time and money required for a degree if it doesn’t help secure a coveted position or allow the worker to thrive. EdBridge fills the gap by connecting workers with programs offering the in-demand practical skills employers need, positioning them as the next generation of skilled labor. EdBridge provides one-to-one mentorship with industry experts, offering valuable insights and guidance as workers build the foundations for their careers. 

Working with EdBridge creates a focused path for students to learn practical skills with hands-on training for the most in-demand abilities, such as AI tools automation and others hyper-focused toward today’s corporate world. EdBridge clients also receive professional experience while they train, leaving them prepared for the workforce after graduation. 

EdBridge doesn’t send its graduates into the corporate world without resources. All students graduate with virtual internships or a project with a UAE- or USA-based company related to their field of study. 

College graduates who find that their degrees haven’t taken them quite as far as they might have hoped can turn to EdBridge to fill the gap between their formal education and the real-world experience of working in the field. 

“We don’t just teach theory—we give you the tools, skills, and virtual internships to turn learning into action so you can actually thrive in the workplace,” EdBridge founders said. “Whether you’re just getting started or you’re a seasoned pro, our programs are designed to upskill anyone wanting to dominate in HR, tech, sales, or marketing.”

The helpful and knowledgeable team at EdBridge is on standby to answer any questions about the upskill training programs. They have answers and solutions to all client questions and are happy to discuss the benefits and details of the company’s upskilling platform. 

“Your path to the top one percent starts here,” EdBridge founders said.
