The launch is timely as digital skills have become an increasingly sought-after trait amongst recruiters. KX research has revealed 90% of firms believe that in order to remain competitive, they must increase investment in data analytics; however, 49% believe a lack of skills and people is a barrier for capitalizing on this technology.

Adding to the already expansive programme of in-person training offered by KX, the Academy will help train users in the data skills of the future, further increasing access to the game-changing power of KX.

Speaking on the launch, Eric Raab, CTO KX said: “As more and more organizations look to use the power of real-time analytics to drive business decision making, KX Academy is a powerful new asset to help users develop their skills using our market-leading technology, and maximize its full potential.”
