Mumbai, July 13: Emeritus Enterprise, the B2B division of global edtech major Eruditus, is seeing enterprise learning demand shift decisively towards Agentic AI and leadership capability building. The division closed FY26 with over 600 programs delivered globally – more than 80% centred on Agentic AI and leadership training, marking the sharpest shift in enterprise learning demand in recent years.
In FY26, the division trained over 120,000 professionals globally, with India driving the highest demand for role-based, tiered AI training – solutions designed for different workforce layers, from frontline teams to the C-suite. While India led on scale and speed, APAC and the US focused on embedding AI into business functions, the META on building national AI capability, and Europe on responsible adoption within evolving regulatory frameworks.
‘’Organisations have moved from isolated individual training interventions to comprehensive learning programs supporting competency development of the workforce in-line with the strategic priorities. This year alone, we have delivered more than 90% of such tailored offerings blending in learning interventions, practical experiences, & programs to support organisation transformations,’’ said Jawahir Morarji, President -Enterprise Business.
The portfolio spanned AI Strategy and Transformation, Agentic AI Deployment, AI-Powered Leadership, Executive AI Fluency, and Leading AI-Enabled Organisational Change, responding to the real demand for AI capability building across global enterprises. As a result, over 80% of Emeritus Enterprise partners have built or are actively building an AI Learning Academy – moving well beyond basic training into applied experimentation, ideation, and tangible business value creation.
The year further saw an uptick in women’s participation across geographies, with enrolments growing 30% in that category. At the same time, demand expanded beyond technology teams, with sales, marketing, research, finance, HR, and operations emerging as key functions for AI capability building.
”We have also noticed two clear demand patterns; one is strategic, where organisations are embedding AI into business vision at the leadership level, and the other is applied, where teams are building AI into products, workflows, and client-facing services. What is striking is how quickly the gap between the two is closing. In FY27, our focus is on deepening that work and strengthening our footprints in the US and European markets – building onto the next phase of growth,” added Jawahir Morarji.
India remained the largest and fastest-growing enterprise market with Enterprise skilling, followed by the META (Middle East, Turkey, Africa) and APAC regions. Government engagement has deepened further across these markets as AI skilling becomes a national workforce priority – with the portfolio spanning Indian GCCs, MNCs, and Fortune 500 companies across BFSI, Technology, and Pharma.
In APAC, demand was led by Leadership, AI, Business Management, Finance, and Digital Transformation – in that order, pointing to a region building management capability alongside technical skilling. Commenting on operations, Manas Mainrai, Senior VP Enterprise – India, APAC & Europe said,
”APAC is one of the most nuanced markets we operate in – each economy is at a different stage of AI adoption, and a one-size approach simply does not work here. What stands out is the region’s appetite to upskill rather than restructure. Organisations across APAC are actively investing in their workforce’s ability to work alongside AI, and we are seeing strong uptake when programs are localised to reflect market-specific skill gaps and business contexts, further driving outcomes.”
The global edtech major has also been investing significantly in innovation. Its proprietary AI Tutor bot and supporting AI personas have supported learners and organisations stay on track throughout the learning journey, driving completion rates as high as 96% and a 90% user satisfaction score. Currently, the Enterprise division accounts for approximately one-fourth of Eruditus’s total revenue, with the expectation that it will grow toward parity with the Consumer business over the next three to four years.
