Now an independent company, Global Knowledge builds the people who do the work organizations need next — and stands by whether they can do it.

ALAMO, Calif., July 6, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Global Knowledge, the human-first enterprise learning company behind three decades of workforce transformation through IT and business training, today begins a new chapter as a fully independent organization with its sale to an affiliate of Enduring Ventures.

The move sharpens the company’s focus on what sets it apart: people. As organizations adopt AI and add learning platforms at record pace, Global Knowledge is investing in the experts who turn new technology & business topics into capability their teams can use — teaching people to apply what they learn, giving feedback in the moment, and creating lasting behaviors.

“The AI rush gave everyone more learning content and fewer opportunities to apply it. What organizations actually need hasn’t changed — people who can do the work, and a partner who stands by them. Independence lets us put everything behind that. It’s a genuine fresh start, built on 30 years of doing this well,” said Darren Bance, General Manager of Global Knowledge.

For Global Knowledge’s new owner, that differentiation is a bet for the long-term.

“Global Knowledge has been the standard in this category for longer than anyone else, and its customers are the proof,” said Zack Onisko, Managing Director at Enduring Ventures. “They don’t come back because they have to. They come back because it works. Darren and his team have built something rare, and we’re thrilled to keep building it with them.”

For customers, nothing changes: agreements, contacts, and day-to-day delivery all continue, and the Skillsoft partnership for blended, on-demand learning stays in place.
