Classroom Integration

The IBM SkillsBuild Classroom Integration Pilot, led by the TAG Education Collaborative (TAG-Ed), is designed to support faculty in embedding industry-aligned, cohort-based/self-paced learning into existing coursework.

This guide serves as a practical resource for faculty participating in the pilot, and outlines:

  • How IBM SkillsBuild aligns with academic instruction
  • Roles and expectations for faculty, student, and TAG-Ed 
  • Recommended approaches for grading, engagement, and progress tracking
  • Available support structures throughout the pilot

The pilot model is intentionally flexible, allowing faculty to integrate IBM SkillsBuild content in ways that complement course objectives while providing students with access to real-world, employer-informed skills. TAG-Ed partners closely with faculty throughout implementation by providing onboarding support, cohort management, progress reporting, and ongoing technical assistance.

Our goal is to ensure a smooth experience for instructors while enhancing student learning and workforce readiness.
