UpSkill Academy, part of MyComputerCareer, has announced a new partnership with AI CERTS™ to expand its artificial intelligence training and certification portfolio. The collaboration will nearly double the number of AI courses available, with a focus on roles in business-to-business and business-to-government sectors.
Dan O’Brien, vice president of innovation and strategy at MyComputerCareer, said the initiative is designed to address the widening gap between job-level AI skills and business needs. “The demand for AI is here to stay,” said O’Brien, adding that the goal is to embed AI capabilities across all roles and industries.
UpSkill Academy provides enterprise learning solutions powered by AI-driven assessments and adaptive learning models. Its training platform includes self-paced courses, virtual instruction, hands-on labs and coaching, covering topics from AI and cybersecurity to cloud computing and networking. The company promotes a data-led approach to help organisations close skills gaps and remain competitive.
The collaboration taps into AI CERTS™’ growing reputation as a provider of role-based certifications in AI and blockchain. Accredited to ISO standards, AI CERTS™ has launched over 20 certification programmes aimed at preparing learners for job-ready AI roles—from developers to business leaders.
This partnership follows similar alliances AI CERTS™ has formed with global training providers, including Fast Lane, NetCom Learning and Lumify Work. These initiatives aim to make AI education more accessible while promoting practical, workplace-relevant skills. Some programmes also emphasise soft skills such as communication and problem-solving.
As organisations race to keep up with technological change, upskilling efforts are becoming more urgent. Yet experts caution that success depends not just on the availability of training, but on employers creating cultures of continuous learning. Courses must translate into practical capabilities that drive innovation and results.
Even so, the UpSkill Academy and AI CERTS™ partnership marks a constructive step forward. By expanding access to AI certifications and training, it supports the wider goal of preparing the global workforce for a future defined by intelligent technologies. Collaboration between training providers, employers and accrediting bodies will be critical to maintain momentum and adapt to the evolving demands of the AI economy.
