upGrad for Business, launches Education@Work - A Corporate Digital Campus,

Mumbai,:  upGrad for Business, the B2B arm of South Asia’s largest online higher education company upGrad, launches Education@Work - A Corporate Digital Campus, wherein upGrad will enable organisations with 100+ education courses for their employees across MBA Degrees, Data, Technology, and Behavioral disciplines.

Given the Covid crisis, organisations are leveraging online learning as the only possible L&D initiative, as on-site has not been feasible for more than a year and will not be so in the near future. upGrad’s launch of Education@Work is aptly timed, as such initiatives have proven to deliver elevated employee attention resulting in a ~21% increase in profitability for companies, as per the Gallup findings.

Talking about the new launch, Minaxi Indra, President & Head, upGrad for Business, said, "Recent report highlights that 61% of the workforce feels burnt out. Channelising our employees’ efforts by focusing on their developmental needs creates an engaged and productive employee base. Our partnership delivers tangible business outcomes for our customers and the Education@Work offering is a game-changer for organisations. It is designed keeping in mind a two-fold approach of enhancing employee productivity and helping organisations with business growth in the current turbulent times.”
