AI Accelerated Careers: Setting Our Students Up for Success
We're delighted to share that we've further developed our AI training, with additional sector-specific AI training now embedded in every single learning pathway. These improved courses and pathways will give our students comprehensive AI skills, future-proofing their careers in IT, tech or project management.
It’s no secret that AI is continuing to transform every sector, and none more than IT and project management. A staggering 97% of employers expect new hires, regardless of job role, to be AI proficient.
That’s why - following the launch of our AI courses last autumn - we’ve further strengthened our focus on AI skills with additional AI training embedded into all pathways, as well as a new standalone AI Skills Accelerator pathway to help our students build the skills employers are actually looking for.

AI Transformation Shows No Signs of Stopping
AI is driving a productivity boom, and according to PwC’s 2026 Global AI Jobs Barometer, companies that are most able to use AI are more productive and have faster-growing headcounts. The top 20% of AI-exposed organisations globally are reaping an average labour productivity growth of 40%. Clearly, the strategic implementation of AI tools across business operations is a game-changer, with employers paying a wage premium of up to 59% for those with AI skills.
AI hiring in Australia has skyrocketed; 41,000 job postings required specialist AI literacy skills in 2025, up from 20,000 in 2024 and 1000 in 2012.
