Upskilling in the U.S.

“The American Upskilling Study: Empowering Workers for the Jobs of Tomorrow,” conducted by Gallup and commissioned by Amazon, explored how access to upskilling is becoming a sought-after employee benefit—and a powerful talent attraction tool for companies.

Methodology: Results from “The American Upskilling Study: Empowering Workers for the Jobs of Tomorrow,” are based on a self-administered web survey conducted June 8, 2021 – June 17, 2021 of 15,066 U.S. adults from an opt-in sample provided by Dynata. The sample included adults aged 18-65 that are currently in the workforce (i.e., employed or unemployed but seeking work and/or are planning to return to work). The survey was conducted in English only.

The sample was weighted to correct for nonresponse. Nonresponse adjustments were made at the state and national level by adjusting the sample to match known targets for age, sex, education, race/ethnicity. State and census region (West, Midwest, Northeast, South) population targets were also used to create national weights. Weighting targets were created using the Census Bureau’s American Community Survey (5-year data, 2015-2019). State and MSA data are reported in cases in which 100 or more respondents were interviewed in that area.
