Skillsoft Corp. (SKIL)

Corporate learning platform and instructor-led training. Read November 11, 2026 from the annual report for the period ending January 31, 2026, filed April 7, 2026. Ranked 2 of the 90 Consumer Defensive companies read so far, by the share within reach now.

A corporate learning company whose filing states its total in four parts and nothing by business.

The figures on this page come from the company's own annual report and from BLS staffing patterns for its industries, never from a roster. They are estimates with a stated method. Nothing here says what the company will do: within reach is not a forecast of jobs lost or of savings.

What follows from the reading

Share of working time within reach of AI, on the long-run pace at four in five: 50% now, 67% at the end of 2027, 71% at the end of 2028, 73% at the end of 2030. By the patterns, the work is about 73% desk work, 25% people work and 3% body work. These are the site's industry estimates weighted by the shares below: estimates with a stated method and range, not a forecast of what the company will do. By the same patterns, at the end of 2028 about 28% of the working time stays with people (conversation, in-person and hands-on work), 59% becomes checking a model's work and 11% could be handed over with lighter checks, from the industries' own figures, not the company's roles.
