Jones Software Corp Expands AI Skilling Through Microsoft Commercial Marketplace with Global Deliver

CHICAGO - March 12, 2026 - PRLog -- Jones Software Corp. (JSC) today announced the expansion of its AI-focused Workforce Skilling Programs, now available through the Microsoft Commercial Marketplace. Delivered through the Velocity Learning Management Ecosystem (VLME), enhanced with Fabric-enabled performance dashboards, the offering enables organizations to procure outcome-driven training aligned to widely adopted Microsoft Technologies while supporting global delivery and measurable workforce impact.

The Microsoft Commercial Marketplace is a catalog of solutions from independent software vendors and partners, enabling customers to find, try, and purchase solutions that integrate with Microsoft Technologies. By making its AI Skilling Programs available through this commercial channel, JSC supports simplified procurement, consolidated billing, and scalable deployment for organizations accelerating AI transformation.

As organizations increase AI adoption, many face a common challenge: moving beyond awareness to measurable workforce capability. JSC's Marketplace-ready offering combines structured curriculum, hands-on lab experiences, readiness diagnostics, and leader-ready dashboards to help teams build real-world skills in AI, data, security, and modern work.

Marketplace-Ready. AI-Focused. Outcome-Measured.

Through the Microsoft Commercial Marketplace, organizations can engage JSC's skilling programs with simplified procurement and flexible deployment options. The offering includes:

• Role-Based AI Learning Pathways aligned to industry-recognized skill frameworks
• Applied Labs & Real-World Scenarios that build practical, job-ready capability
• Embedded Readiness Diagnostics to measure proficiency progression
• Fabric-Enabled Dashboards that provide leaders with visibility into skill development and workforce readiness

This integrated approach ensures that AI initiatives translate into measurable capability—not just course completion.

Global Delivery at Scale

JSC supports implementation through a scalable global delivery network of instructors and partners. Standardized onboarding, curriculum governance, and quality assurance processes ensure consistent execution across regions and cohorts. This operational model enables organizations to launch AI skilling initiatives quickly, measure impact effectively, and expand programs confidently as adoption grows.

Fabric-Enabled Workforce Intelligence

VLME integrates performance analytics dashboards that provide real-time visibility into learner engagement, assessment results, and role-based readiness indicators.

Predict – Assessment trends help forecast readiness progression and identify skill gaps early.
Profile – Role-based analytics provide insight into capability distribution across teams and departments.
Personalize – Learning pathways adapt based on demonstrated proficiency, reinforcing targeted development.

By combining learning delivery with structured analytics, organizations gain actionable insight into time-to-readiness, certification preparedness, and AI adoption progress.
