Case Study: Ericsson transforms workforce learning with Degreed

Ericsson cuts learning spend 50% and boosts completions 62% with Degreed

Ericsson, a global networking and telecommunications company, faced a challenge with a complex and disparate learning technology infrastructure that relied on multiple platforms. This created a disjointed skill-building experience for its 100,000+ employees. To align with a new company-wide strategic direction focused on simplicity, their Learning & Development team sought a single solution to unify their ecosystem and make learning a daily habit. They partnered with the vendor Degreed to implement its learning experience platform (LXP).

By implementing Degreed, Ericsson created a one-stop shop for learning that integrated all internal and external content. The solution provided personalized learning pathways, mobile access, and robust analytics. This resulted in a massive measurable impact, including a 50% reduction in learning spend, a 62% increase in learning completions, and 24% higher learning hours. Degreed also enabled a more skills-oriented approach, helping Ericsson build critical capabilities in areas like 5G and drive profitable growth.
