Circus Street and Degreed Partner to Expand Global Digital Skill Training

Degreed’s learning experience platform will now support Circus Street’s library of more than 115 online lessons

London, UK; 25th April 2023: Circus Street, the only specialist provider of online training in digital skills for global enterprises, has partnered with learning experience platform Degreed. 

Circus Street’s extensive library of courses in skills including digital literacy, data and insights, strategy and innovation, eCommerce, and martech, will be integrated into Degreed’s learning platform. The tie-up will significantly expand the range of lessons available to customers. 

Circus Street and Degreed work with some of the world’s largest brands to provide upskilling and reskilling experiences that have a tangible business impact. While Degreed has transformed learning into an intuitive and social user experience powered by data, Circus Street’s award-winning learning content has made the usual unengaging elearning experience into an interactive, and informative journey through digital skills. The partnership will also enable both companies to collaborate on the creation of new products and services. 

Circus Street has trained more than 500,000 employees across 150 countries, in 100+ learning topics in 11 languages. Circus Street clients include Coca-Cola, Nike, GM, Pfizer, and Nestlé. 

Sarah Gilchrest, President of Circus Street, said:

Sarah Gilchrest, President of Circus Street, said: “Circus Street and Degreed share the same philosophy that skills training works best when it is engaging, intuitive, and tailored to individual experiences. Degreed’s platform and our lessons are designed to create these experiences for some of the world’s biggest companies - which is why this partnership makes so much sense.

“Emerging disruptive technology such as generative AI has showcased why it is more important than ever before for businesses and professionals to be able to upskill and reskill. It is essential for future-proofing, maximizing the benefits of technology, and improving productivity and efficiency. However, modern skills training requires modern solutions. The experience Circus Street and Degreed will now offer gives businesses all the tools they need to transform their workforces.”

David Taylor, Vice President of Strategic Partnerships at Degreed, said: “Circus Street exemplifies what Degreed looks for in a content partner. The deep domain expertise and high-quality production value create compelling experiences for Degreed learners. And those experiences directly contribute to skill-building and knowledge sharing, which are evidenced through our integration - aggregated reports can be viewed in Degreed or Circus Street insights.”
