Pearson announced the continued expansion of its AI learning content portfolio to reach K-12, higher education, professional, and enterprise learners. This expansion follows the double-digit monthly growth of Pearson's Generative AI Foundations Certification since its launch in October 2024.

The expanded portfolio includes certification opportunities across multiple formats and disciplines, featuring content on agentic AI, large language models, machine learning, and ethical AI implementation. Pearson's AI-related live training hours nearly doubled in the last year, from 580 to 996 content hours.

Art Valentine, CEO of Pearson US and President of Assessment & Qualifications, stated that the acceleration of AI innovation is fundamentally changing the skills landscape. Pearson's expanded content, alongside strategic partnerships with Microsoft, Amazon Web Services, and Google, aims to prepare students and professionals to work effectively and responsibly with autonomous AI systems.
