Bloomberg Media getting into the education business

Bloomberg Media is partnering with education provider Emeritus to launch Bloomberg Learning, a suite of online courses, reports Ray Schultz of Publishers Daily.

Schultz reports, “The programming, featuring content from domain experts, will be four to six hours a week for six weeks. Participants will also receive a subscription to Bloomberg.com during their enrollment.

“The first AI program, AI Strategy: Driving Impact for Business, will launch this summer.

“Bloomberg cites statistics showing that 80% of global professionals believe skill enhancement is key to career success. And 53% fear that falling behind in tech skills could lead to them eventually being replaced by technology.

“‘With Emeritus’ deep expertise in course design and development, we’re excited to offer small private online courses with hands-on learning and grow a deeper relationship with new consumers,’ says Nick Sallon, chief partnerships officer at Bloomberg Media.”
