Evaluating the Impact of AI-Powered Reskilling Programs on Bengaluru’s IT Professionals
Abstract

The paper measures the factors that influence IT specialists by considering artificial intelligence (AI) for reskilling, gaining new skills, promotional opportunities and job satisfaction. Quantitative cross-sectional surveys and qualitative interviews are integrated to measure the levels of improvement in the technical skills and readiness of the workforce due to the application of AIbased personal learning pathways and real-time feedback and the adaptation of content delivery. The literature review shows how AI effectively narrows IT professionals’ knowledge gaps in technical competencies, confidence, and preparedness in executing projects. The study respondents were aware of the risks, including data privacy issues, considerable start-up costs, and overdependency on technological solutions, and also the great benefits of using AI approaches for professional growth transformation. This study calls for a practical approach to spending to improve reskilling programs through the infusion of AI learning to support large-scale, affordable efforts that improve the careers of employees and innovation in Bengaluru’s IT sector. The findings have major implications for those in policy, education, and organizational training environments as they attempt to promote lifelong learning and flexibility.
