ServiceNow has introduced ServiceNow University, an innovative learner experience to empower individuals to grow, develop, and build skills that matter the most. The new world of work is as much about a human transformation as a technological one, and for humans to transform, a safe space is needed outside of one's comfort zone and it is why the science of play in learning is at the core of the ServiceNow University vision.
Unlike other learning environments with static, one‑size‑fits‑all programming, ServiceNow University builds skills for the future, flexes with the world's needs, and unlocks full talent potential through a customized learning toolkit—no matter an individual's needs and interests.
ServiceNow University is available to organizations and individuals throughout the entire ServiceNow ecosystem—employees, customers, and partners—connecting people to the learning they need to contribute with impact.
'In the age of AI, we have an opportunity to unleash a human renaissance by helping our people reach their full potential, simplify their lives, and focus on the meaningful, innovative work that drives business success,' said Jacqui Canney, chief people and AI enablement officer at ServiceNow. 'The speed of change also demands an agile learning and development approach that focuses as much on how people learn in the flow of work as it does on the right skills people need to thrive. That's why we designed ServiceNow University to foster a culture of continuous learning and adaptation with our people at the center.'
According to the third annual research report from ServiceNow and Pearson that will be published in September, agentic AI is set to disrupt millions of jobs, both technical and non‑technical, fueling the demand to upskill. In fact, more than 8 million roles are estimated to transform because of agentic AI in the U.S. alone.
Additionally, significant tech workforce growth is expected in all surveyed regions by 2030—from 27% in Germany to 36% in the U.S. to 95% in India. ServiceNow University leverages cutting‑edge AI and a personalized development toolkit to set all learners up for success, whether their role is evolving, or they are diving into a technology‑focused role for the first time. The vast curriculum covering human and technical skills helps talent future‑proof their careers and enable organizations to remain competitive.
'As technology continues to transform the workplace at an unprecedented pace driven by AI, there is a learning imperative that leaders need to address. ServiceNow University is uniquely positioned to help them do just that,' said Jayney Howson, SVP of global learning and development at ServiceNow. 'Built around you and your unique learning journey, it combines the power of AI with the science of play to create an experience that brings together an individual's background, talents, and goals. Whether you're looking to learn a quick new skill or make a complete career change, ServiceNow University delivers learning that is accessible—creating a safe space where people can step outside of their comfort zone, try new things, experiment, fail, and learn.'
ServiceNow University equips learners to grow with purpose and contribute with impact
Historically, organizations have harnessed a fixed approach to growth and development with scheduled programs, such as 30‑60‑90‑day onboarding cycles, periodic online courses, and mandatory compliance trainings. However, as ever‑evolving technology impacts the way we work, learning experiences must evolve as well.
ServiceNow University addresses this need by offering the space to turn skill‑building into a dynamic journey to help ensure learners not only excel today but create resilient career paths for the future, too, broadening the breadth and depth of learning and experiences.
Key features include:
Completely FREE and gamified with hundreds of on‑demand courses and hands‑on performance‑based assessments in which learners can earn credentials and receive points, badges, and ranks to not only reward personal development but help them advance skills needed for this digitally transformed workforce.

Worried about AI effect on job? Microsoft report reveals 40 careers that use tech most, least

Artificial intelligence evolved from just a buzzword to a key tool in everyone's careers in the matter of a few years. Concerns have arisen as employees fear if AI will take over their jobs. However, experts have often reassured the public that technology will not replace those who learn to use it to increase efficiency at the workplace. A recently released research paper, conducted with the help of and approved by Microsoft, reveals 40 career roles with the most and least AI applicability score. What is AI applicability score? The study defines AI applicability score as the measure of "nontrivial AI usage that successfully completes activities corresponding to significant portions of an occupation's tasks." This essentially means that the more that AI is used to complete a significant part of a particular job's work responsibilities, the higher the score. In general, the occupations with highest AI applicability scores are knowledge work and communication focused occupations, according to the study. However, all occupational groups "have at least some potential for AI impact (unsurprisingly, with much narrower effects on occupations with large physical components)", according to the study published by Microsoft research on July 22. 40 jobs with most AI applicability These are the 40 roles identified with the highest AI applicability stores, which can translate into being the most impacted by technology. The jobs are arranged from high to low: Interpreters and Translators Historians Passenger Attendants Sales Representatives of Services Writers and Authors Customer Service Representatives CNC Tool Programmers Telephone Operators Ticket Agents and Travel Clerks Broadcast Announcers and Radio DJs Brokerage Clerks Farm and Home Management Educators Telemarketers Concierges Political Scientists News Analysts, Reporters, Journalists Mathematicians Technical Writers Proofreaders and Copy Markers Hosts and Hostesses Editors Business Teachers, Postsecondary Public Relations Specialists Demonstrators and Product Promoters Advertising Sales Agents New Accounts Clerks Statistical Assistants Counter and Rental Clerks Data Scientists Personal Financial Advisors Archivists Economics Teachers, Postsecondary Web Developers Management Analysts Geographers Models Market Research Analysts Public Safety Telecommunicators Switchboard Operators Library Science Teachers, Postsecondary 40 jobs with least AI applicability These are the 40 roles identified with the least AI applicability stores, which can translate into being the least impacted by technology. The jobs are again arranged from high to low: Phlebotomists Nursing Assistants Hazardous Materials Removal Workers Helpers–Painters, Plasterers Embalmers Plant and System Operators, All Other Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons Automotive Glass Installers and Repairers Ship Engineers Tire Repairers and Changers Prosthodontists Helpers–Production Workers Highway Maintenance Workers Medical Equipment Preparers Packaging and Filling Machine Op.

Instagram rolls out new location sharing, reels features; security concerns raised

Instagram has launched three new major features — Repost, Instagram Map, and the Friends tab — for its users. The Repost feature will help users share others' content with your own followers and friends. The feature will give credit to the original poster. Stay up to date with the latest news. Follow KT on WhatsApp Channels. Instagram Map The 'Instagram Map' feature is reminiscent of a similar feature on Snapchat. With this option, one can share their last active location with a chosen group of friends. The user can see their locations and content they've posted from interesting places. Also, the feature is designed with safety as a priority — parents of supervised teen accounts will be notified if their child turns on location sharing. "Share locations with friends and see what's happening around you on the Instagram map. And if you're a parent with supervision set up for your teen, you have control over whether they can share their location, and who they're sharing with," said Instagram. When the app rolled out the Map feature, it caused a wave of confusion among users who were worried that their locations would be visible to all their followers. Some users have since been shocked to discover that their location was being shared, viral posts have shown. "Mine was turned on and my home address was showing for all of my followers to see," Instagram user Lindsey Bell wrote in reply to a warning posted by "Bachelor" reality television personality Kelley Flanagan to her 300,000 TikTok followers. "Turned it off immediately once I knew but had me feeling absolutely sick about it." In a TikTok video, Flanagan called Instagram's new location sharing feature "dangerous" and gave step-by-step instructions on how to make sure it is turned off. Instagram chief Adam Mosseri fired off a post on Meta-owned Threads stressing that Instagram location sharing is off by default, meaning users need to opt in for it to be active. "Quick Friend Map clarification, your location will only be shared if you decide to share it, and if you do, it can only be shared with a limited group of people you choose," Mosseri wrote. "To start, location sharing is completely off." The feature was added as a way for friends to better connect with one another, sharing posts from "cool spots," Instagram said in a blog post. Users can be selective regarding who they share locations with, and can turn it off whenever they wish, according to Instagram. Friends tab The Friends tab within Reels helps users see what their friends have liked, commented on, or recommended via Blends. Instagram shared these updates through an official blog post, accompanied by a reel from platform chief Adam Mosseri, where he opened up about the new features in detail. All three features are available in the UAE as of this week. According to Meta, the new features are meant to make the app more community focused, and help people connect with their friends.

US-India trade talks scheduled for August called off, source says

A planned visit by US trade negotiators to New Delhi from August 25-29 has been called off, a source said, delaying talks on a proposed trade agreement and dashing hopes of relief from additional US tariffs on Indian goods from August 27. The current round of negotiations for the proposed bilateral trade agreement is now likely to be deferred to another date that has yet to be decided, the source with direct knowledge of the matter said. The US embassy in New Delhi said it has no additional information on the trade and tariff talks, which are being handled by the United States Trade Representative (USTR). India's trade ministry did not immediately reply to a Reuters email seeking comments. Earlier this month, US President Donald Trump imposed an additional 25 per cent tariff on Indian goods, citing New Delhi's continued imports of Russian oil in a move that sharply escalated tensions between the two nations. The new import tax, which will come into effect from August 27, will raise duties on some Indian exports to as high as 50 per cent — among the highest levied on any US trading partner. Trade talks between New Delhi and Washington collapsed after five rounds of negotiations over disagreement on opening India's vast farm and dairy sectors and stopping Russian oil purchases. India's Foreign Ministry has said the country is being unfairly singled out for buying Russian oil while the United States and European Union continue to purchase goods from Russia.
