Degreed, which now branded a workforce upskilling platform, has acquired London-based Adepto. Degreed reports that the result of the acquisition will empower organizations to upskill, analyze, and deploy employees based on their skills.
Adepto enables organizations to build private Total Talent networks that intelligently match internal and external workers to project, gig, and job opportunities that fit their skills and career goals. It also provides business leaders with easy-to-use tools to track and access the skill-sets and interests of their entire pool of available talent — current and past employees, as well as contractors, freelancers, consultants, and potential new hires.
Degreed has made a series of moves over the years to position itself as a more modern learning tech provider.
