'We have an opportunity to unleash a human renaissance by helping our people reach their full potential.' – Jacqui Canney, ServiceNow
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.

US bombers line up at Diego Garcia base as Iran strike looms
The airbase that could be used to launch bunker-busting strikes on Iran has seen an influx of heavy American bombers and fighters. Satellite images taken three days ago show the presence of four B-52s that can technically drop the 13,600kg GBU-57 bomb needed to penetrate Iran's underground nuclear network. They were spotted by commercial satellite imagery company Planet Labs, and traces how the balance of aircraft at the base has changed as the situation in the Middle East deteriorated. Six F-15 multirole warplanes have also arrived in recent days and would be used to protect the airbase from Iran drone or cruise missile attack. Six KC-135 tankers are also there, giving America the option to refuel aircraft on the approach to Iran if required. There is also the prospect that with aircraft movement into Diego Garcia remaining fluid, B-2 Spirit stealth bombers could also land there, having been spotted in recent months. Diego Garcia, the largest of the Chagos Islands, has been used as the site of a joint UK-US military base since the 1970s due to its strategically important position in the Indian Ocean. The UK recently signed a deal to return the Chagos Islands to Mauritius, with an agreement to lease Diego Garcia for £101 million each year for the next 99 years. Critics of the deal said the UK risks losing an important strategic presence in the Indian Ocean. Diego Garcia would likely be used as a base for a 'stand-off' attack on Iran, The National has been told. 'While they can drop the GBU-57, the fact they have to fly straight and level means that the B-52 would be sitting ducks if used over Iran,' said military aviation expert Tim Ripley. 'But they carry 20 cruise missiles, which they can launch from a distance.' The total value of the jets currently present is approaching $1.5 billion which contrasts with the $12 billion cost of the six B-2s that were at the base two months ago and appear to have been moved back to the US. It is understood that they were there to be used against the Houthis in Yemen as part of America's bombing campaign before a ceasefire was agreed. They are the most expensive aircraft ever built and the only ones certified to drop GBU-57 bombs. Their departure makes it more likely that if US President Donald Trump decides to support Israel by attacking Iran's Fordow nuclear facility hidden in a mountain, the strike will be launched from America. The B-2s would fly from their Whiteman air force base in Missouri direct to the site near Qom − a distance of 11,200km distance. While that is at the very limit of their range, they will be able to receive air-to-air refuelling from tankers stationed in the Middle East and Europe. The Diego Garcia deployment is part of a widespread movement of US warplanes into the region as the possibility of a US attack on Iran increases. A fleet of more than 30 air-to-air refuelling tankers have crossed the Atlantic and are now stationed at airbases across Europe and the Middle East. They have been joined by squadrons of F-22 and F-35 stealth fighters that will be on hand for a major air attack alongside the jets from what will soon be two US aircraft carriers in the region, once the USS Nimitz arrives from the Pacific. But as the Diego Garcia base is a British overseas territory, permission would be required from London before any raid on Iran is undertaken. The UK is likely to face domestic opposition to joining the US in the conflict. Prime Minister Keir Starmer held an emergency Cobra meeting upon his return to the UK from the G7 summit to discuss the UK's response to the crisis. Attorney General Lord Richard Hermer reportedly raised concerns about the legality of the UK's involvement, advising that the UK should limit this to 'defensive' support. However, Sir John Sawers, former head of MI6, on Thursday told the Chatham House think tank's London Conference that he did not see obstacles to a UK green light for use of the archipelago for an Iran mission. 'If American bombers do strike they will almost certainly do so from Diego Garcia,' he said. 'We've just negotiated a long-term lease so there could be an American base on Diego Garcia. I don't see Keir Starmer saying, 'oh, but you can't use it. I'm afraid'. I don't see that. 'It's very straightforward. They've got an American base there and whole purpose of Diego Garcia is so the Americans can use it when they need to use it.' There are some concerns that further escalation with Iran would have the undesired effect of re-enforcing its nuclear ambitions. Former National Security Adviser Lord Peter Ricketts said the UK 'should not' support potential US strikes on Iran. 'The only way we're going to control Iran's nuclear ambitions in the long term is by having a deal with them,' he said. 'I think just coming back and bombing them every few years is not going to make the world safer. In fact, it's going to reinforce their determination to keep working on a nuclear weapon when this round of fighting is over,' he said.

Musk's X to offer investment, trading in 'super app' push, FT reports
X CEO Linda Yaccarino has said users will soon be able to make investments or trades on the social media platform, the Financial Times reported on Thursday, a move to support billionaire owner Elon Musk's vision to create an "everything app." In an interview with the publisher, Yaccarino said the company was exploring the introduction of an X credit or debit card, which could come as soon as this year. Musk, who in April 2022 clinched a $44 billion deal to buy Twitter and later rebranded it as X, has signaled plans to model it as a "super app," similar to China's WeChat. The social media platform did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment. "2025 X will connect you in ways never thought possible. X TV, X Money, Grok and more," Yaccarino wrote in a post in December last year. Payments giant Visa and X partnered to offer direct payment solutions to customers of the social media app, a person familiar with the matter said earlier this year. A super app, or what Musk refers to as an "everything app," has been described as the Swiss army knife of mobile apps, offering a suite of services for users such as messaging, social networking, payments and e-commerce shopping. X hired NBCUniversal advertising chief Yaccarino as CEO in 2023 amid advertiser exodus from the platform as they worried that their ads could appear next to inappropriate content. Yaccarino said that 96% of X's ad clients prior to acquisition had now come back to the platform, the Financial Times report said. The company is poised for its first year of ad revenue growth this year since its acquisition by Musk, according to data from research firm Emarketer in March. X had filed a lawsuit in federal court in Texas against the World Federation of Advertisers, accusing them of unlawfully conspiring to boycott the site and causing it to lose revenue.
