Case Study: UST Global achieves 300% increase in learner adoption and reduced attrition with Skillsoft

Investing in employee development to support exponential growth

UST Global, a fast-growing end-to-end IT solutions provider, faced the challenge of scaling workforce skills amid 48% revenue growth in 2013. Rapid expansion, a competitive talent market, wider geographic spread and fast-moving technology made on-demand, scalable learning essential to recruit, retain and up-skill employees.

UST’s learning arm, G A Menon Academy (GAMA), partnered with Skillsoft to deliver role-mapped e-learning, SkillChoice content and Books24x7, launched competency-based interviewing, a 10-week ALPHA new-hire academy, six targeted learning “pillars,” and location-specific champions. The initiatives drove strong adoption and outcomes: a 300% year-over-year increase in Skillsoft users (6,900 active users), a double-digit rise in e-learning hours, a seven-point drop in attrition, broader participation in technical and non-technical training, and measurable improvements in placement and billability.
