Four Global Skills Acceleration Opportunities in 2026 

Udemy identified four key areas of opportunity for companies assessing skills acceleration priorities for 2026: 

1. AI fluency must become table stakes. Professionals who develop AI fluency, defined as using AI fluidly, and at the same time, thoughtfully and critically, understand its risks, assess outputs, and anticipate impacts, are well positioned for success and driving business outcomes. 
   • For primarily business use cases and applications, the top-growing AI topic, Microsoft Copilot, increased 3,400%. For primarily technical use cases and applications, the top-growing AI topic was GitHub CoPilot, which increased 13,534%. 
   • AI agents and agentic AI is the top-consumed net-new AI skill on Udemy Business.
2. Learning in the flow of work makes skills stick. By embedding learning into day-to-day workflows, enterprises can shift from just-in-case learning to just-in-time upskilling, building transferrable skills at the moment they’re most needed. Demand for Udemy’s AI Role Play signals cravings for context-specific learning in the pursuit of skills mastery. This context-specific learning drives results; according to research from ATD, 85% of talent professionals find retrieval practices effective in improving learning outcomes,
   • 3,300+ Role Plays published in Udemy Business courses within 3 months of launch, and 38+ new Role Plays are created every day. 
3. Scaling leadership, ethics, and agility supercharges AI adoption. Effective leadership skills can empower AI skeptics with the confidence to reimagine their roles, functions, and workflows by using AI responsibly, bolstered by a culture that values permission and purpose. 
   • Foundational leadership is the 6th most consumed of all business skills on Udemy Business, while AI ethics and governance course consumption increased 98% year-over-year. 
4. Adaptive skills are critical for long-term resilience. Hard-earned skills like critical thinking, communication, and creativity have a shelf-life beyond any tech phenomenon. Adaptive or soft skills learning grew 25% year-over-year on Udemy Business, with surges in skills like critical thinking (37% increase) and decision-making (38% increase). 

“Change is a constant in the world of work, but what’s more unpredictable are barriers, the impact of uncertainty, and whether or not we are agile enough to withstand them,” said Paul Kent, Senior Learning and Development Manager, PepsiCo. “By prioritizing business outcomes, professionals’ goals, and company-wide best practices, we’re developing the skills our teams need today and tomorrow to thrive in the AI era.”
