About Barbara Simonsen
Pluralsight can address the mission of the Navy and Marine Corps by developing a skills strategy plan for their personnel, tailored to job specific reskilling and upskilling. Pluralsight leverages machine learning and artificial intelligence to objectively measure a user’s proficiency in both a technology area and in their job role. Users then receive a personalized skill/gap analysis, a Skill IQ, with course recommendations allowing them to reduce speed to skills by easily identifying their path forward to increased skill proficiency. To attract and retain elite talent, users have access to a dedicated learning path with the skills needed for career mobility and progression. With Role IQ, the Marine Corps and Navy can further personalize user upskilling and skills/gaps analysis, based on experience and/or education. Current priorities include:* DCWF * Department of Defense (DoD) Directive 8140.01 * IT * Cybersecurity * Cyber Effects * Cyber Intelligence * Cloud * AI/Machine Learning * Data Science To learn more message or email me at B••••••••@pluralsight.com
