Robots have risen, and they’ve come for our jobs. Millions of jobs. The World Economic Forum forecasts that by 2025, machines will perform more current work tasks than humans.

Even before then – by 2023 – 75 million jobs stand to be replaced by automation, while 58 million net new jobs will be created. At least 14% of the global workforce may need to switch occupational categories to keep pace with demand. Quite simply, this is a change unrivaled at any point in human history.

It’s not just new technical skills that are needed. It’s also the uniquely human professional skills that artificial intelligence can’t supply (and which are persistently difficult to scale): adaptability, creativity, empathy, critical thinking.

• Is your organization able to identify the specific skills you will need?
• Can you keep prepared, or is it a struggle just to keep current?

In this research partnership between HCI and Cornerstone, HCI investigates new-skilling efforts and how HR professionals collaborate to identify changing needs, accelerate the development of existing talent, and enhance the agility of the organization.

Join Jenna N. Filipkowski, Ph.D. (LinkedIn profile) Director of Research, Human Capital Institute & Mike Bollinger (LinkedIn profile) VP, Strategic Initiatives, Cornerstone OnDemand; as they reveal insights from their latest study.

Jenna & Mile will:

• Share how organizations are anticipating the skills that they need
• Discuss some of the approaches used to better understand workforce competencies and skills
• Learn more about identifying skill adjacencies and leveraging bridging skills to meet your organization’s emerging needs
• Explore how high-performing organizations – those ranked with the best talent and business outcomes – measure, monitor, and deliver learning programs for the future of work

All registrants will receive a copy of the research report.

Do you get too little time and too few resources to do the testing you know needs to be done?

You’re probably a victim of testing budgets and schedules that are set irrespective of needed tests.

To have a prayer of negotiating achievable testing, you need to apply proven estimation techniques, starting with positively defining needed tests and related tasks.

Learn how to:

• Recognize why you’re repeatedly stuck with impossible testing budgets and schedules
• Identify positively the tests you need for confidence the product works properly
• Make supportable estimates of the direct and indirect work for responsible testing

For modern development teams, test automation has become the answer to faster deployment, improved testing coverage, and better quality.

However, in the mobile sphere, even the best-designed apps can wreak havoc on automated tests and the user experience can usually mean the difference between a 1-star and a 5-star rating on your mobile app.

Different form factors, device types, screen rotations, and operating systems are just a few of the challenges that mobile QA teams face. That’s where visual testing comes into play.

Join this web seminar to discover how a few visual discrepancies in your mobile design can greatly impact your app store rating.

You’ll learn common aspects of mobile UI testing and how to keep your design consistent throughout hundreds of devices without breaking your automated scripts.

This session covers:

• Barriers that keep your apps from becoming pixel-perfect
• How visual imperfections can break your buyer’s journey
• How to incorporate visual validation testing into your automated tests
• How visual testing can be utilized for functional testing
