Udemy and Indeed released a joint report titled “The Future-Proofing Instinct,” analyzing data from September 2023 to September 2025 across Australia, India, the UK and the US. The study compared nearly 2,884 distinct skills in job postings on Indeed with upskilling patterns from Udemy Business enterprise customers. It found that while only 4% of job listings mention AI, 67.5% of employees’ learning efforts target AI capabilities. In technology roles, 95% of upskilling is AI-focused even though just 17.5% of the fastest-growing tech job postings call for AI skills. In manufacturing, 60% of worker training time is devoted to AI despite zero top-listed AI skills in sector job ads. Conversely, soft skills such as communication, leadership and critical thinking appear in most high-growth job postings but are underrepresented in Udemy’s fastest-growing course enrollments. Professional services postings include AI requirements across all four markets, while manufacturing hiring remains centered on quality control and traditional technical needs.

Udemy announced it will report fourth quarter and full-year 2025 financial results after market close on Thursday, February 5, 2026. Due to its pending merger with Coursera, which is awaiting shareholder and regulatory approval, the company will not hold a conference call. Investors can access the press release on Udemy’s Investor Relations website under the “Quarterly Results” section. This scheduling reflects Udemy’s strategic focus on integrating operations with Coursera to expand its AI-powered skills platform and accelerate global workforce development.
