OpenSesame, a global leader in high-quality online business training solutions, and Degreed, the world’s leading experience and skill development platform, are thrilled to announce a groundbreaking partnership that will transform organizational learning and development. This collaboration introduces a direct integration of OpenSesame’s extensive course catalog with Degreed’s robust learning platform, simplifying the delivery and management of corporate training programs.

Through this partnership, OpenSesame and Degreed are setting a new standard for corporate learning systems. The integration empowers L&D professionals to easily send curated course lists or access the entire catalog directly in Degreed. This development promises to enhance the learning administration process by minimizing the time spent on course uploads, management, and updates.

“We’re very excited about our new partnership with Degreed,” says Rebeca Mesa, OpenSesame’s Vice President of Partnerships. “Everyone at OpenSesame is committed to helping organizations develop teams that are supremely talented, energized, and effective. By integrating OpenSesame content with Degreed, we’re removing a lot of friction for L&D professionals and giving them easy access to world-class content at the same time, so they can better help their learners grow in the areas that matter most to each individual.”

The direct integration not only streamlines the admin process but also empowers L&D professionals with advanced tools for tracking and reporting. Organizations can now access detailed analytics to monitor course completions, learner engagement, and course ratings. These insights enable HR teams and talent managers to identify trends, assess the effectiveness of their training initiatives, and make informed, data-driven decisions to optimize the learning experience.

“Degreed is thrilled to partner with OpenSesame,” says Debora Brewer, Senior Vice President of Global Partnerships and Alliances at Degreed. “OpenSesame’s wide array of content creates valuable learning experiences for Degreed users that directly contribute to skill-building and knowledge sharing.”

OpenSesame brings a catalog filled with tens of thousands of courses developed by top publishers worldwide. Degreed, meanwhile, offers a comprehensive technology suite that accelerates skill development and recognizes learning achievements across diverse environments.
