PREPARING FOR THE JOBS OF TOMORROW WITH GENERAL ASSEMBLY

 1. Home Page
 2. Preparing for the jobs of tomorrow with General Assembly

More than 50% of jobs are at risk of automation in less than 10 years. The idea
of a global skills gap is a growing concern in modern societies. To that end,
BNP Paribas Cardif has partnered with General Assembly to prepare the workforce
of the future. Renaud Dumora, CEO of BNP Paribas Cardif and Jake Schwartz,
Co-founder and Chief Executive Officer of General Assembly, share the first
lessons on this partnership, on the occasion of a Forum on “the need for
reskilling” they co-organised in Paris.

 

 


THE FUTURE OF WORK IS AT THE HEART OF COMPANIES’ STRATEGIES. HOW DO YOU BOTH
RESPOND TO THIS AMBITION?

 

Jake Schwartz: Today, with the rise of AI and automation, there is a high level
of anxiety in society about the future of work and the skills gap. However,
there are countless reasons to be optimistic as this new future presents to
create new jobs and pathways to economic mobility! This is why we created
General Assembly, which core mission is to equip people with skills to pursue
the work they love.

 

Renaud Dumora: No jobs are safe from disruption in the coming years. Therefore,
it is essential to provide employees with the necessary skills to embrace
progress, rather than fear the future. Putting them first is very important to
ensure an organization like BNP Paribas Cardif has the right skills in 5 to 10
years. This is why we try to anticipate which jobs would change and which would
ultimately disappear.

 

 


WHAT IS THE OBJECTIVE OF THIS PARTNERSHIP?

 

J.S: We share the same vision and ambition: put people at the center of the set
up. Our objective is to provide clear return on investment for employees and
organizations. For this purpose, we anticipate the needs, adapt continuously the
trainings to these needs and offer a model based on a strong “learning-by-doing”
method, combined with expert instructors. With this approach, we’ve been helping
a number of large companies to invest meaningfully in their employee’s skills
and their talent pipeline, and we are very proud to be partnering with BNP
Paribas Cardif to power their “Skill Up” initiative and to develop the talents
they need.

 

R.D: Our employees are our first asset and we need to help them develop their
skills to prepare themselves for the future. It is critical for them to be able
to leverage new technologies like machine learning, natural language processing,
Internet of Things etc. There is a real demand for learning and development, and
this is why we chose General Assembly for a 5-year partnership. From now until
2022, our goal is to train 1000 employees of BNP Paribas Cardif. We open the
sessions to BNP Paribas group staff as well as to our distributors partners, in
order to develop their talents, and to embrace the transformation we are facing.

 


 


WITH THIS PARTNERSHIP, A JOINT PROJECT HAS BEEN LAUNCHED: THE SKILL UP PROGRAM.
CONCRETELY, HOW DOES IT WORK?

 

J.S: Our focus is to combine the best components of both graduate and vocational
trainings. Concretely, we work with instructors who are leading experts in their
field, so people can learn from practitioners with real business knowledge. In
the case of BNP Paribas Cardif, all staff do not need to re-skill, but for a
large-scale organization, it is also essential to help employees maintain their
skillset current, and to help them understand the importance of these changes.

 

R.D: The Skill Up program has begun in June 2018 : we have chosen it to be an
international program, as we operated in 35 countries. Our teams are being
up-skilled or re-skilled on skills such as data science or UX design and with a
focus on the customer centricity. This program is dedicated to our employees but
it was also important to onboard their managers and even our executive
committee, to make them experience the benefits of working with new skills and
new mindset in a more agile culture.

 

To sum up, we first outlined the needs of the organization, and planned the
sessions. Then, candidates were invited to write motivational letters and a
process has been put in place, with managers, to validate applications.
Furthermore, the benefit of this training is that employees can work on real
professional projects, including projects co-built with partners.

 


 


WHAT ARE THE EXPECTED RESULTS FOR EMPLOYEES?

 

J.S: The success of General Assembly is based on starting with the ultimate
goals of the companies in mind, and working backwards diligently to achieve
them. This is eventually a win-win strategy for both the company and its
employees, who benefit from cutting-edge learnings, and are thus more likely to
stay.

 

R.D: Measuring the skills the company needed was a very important first step.
The process is really just beginning and I am thrilled by the enthusiasm of our
teams! We are focused on allowing our employees to adapt, to develop soft skills
and to be committed to lifelong learning within the company.
