AWS pledges to equip 100,000 in UK with essential AI skills by 2030
07 May 2025
Amazon Web Services (AWS) has announced a major initiative to provide 100,000 people in the UK with essential skills in artificial intelligence (AI) by 2030. The commitment comes as research indicates that one in three UK businesses currently lack the necessary digital skills to effectively adopt AI technologies.
The announcement underscores the urgent need to bridge the skills gap in critical areas such as AI, cybersecurity, and Big Data to support the UK’s rapidly evolving digital economy. A key vehicle for achieving this goal will be the AWS Skills to Jobs Tech Alliance program, launched in June 2023 as part of a global effort. This program brings together businesses, government bodies, and educational institutions to offer practical, hands-on training to students, professionals, and job seekers, aligning their skills with the demands of the modern digital economy.
