Walmart supports “Skills First” initiative — ChainStoreAge.com

Walmart helped support the Skills-First.org website, created by the Burning Glass Institute:

“The goal of the project, initially launched by Walmart in 2025, is to develop a framework for skills-first hiring that can fit every business. On Monday April 7, 2025, the Burning Glass Institute unveiled Skills-First.org, a new website built on custom-built artificial intelligence models housing skills profiles for nine common jobs representing more than 11 million U.S. workers.“
