The client is a global professional services firm focused on delivering digital transformation for clients by blending process expertise, technology, and analytics. With a diverse and globally distributed workforce, the organization places significant emphasis on continuous learning to ensure employeesโ€”especially emerging consultantsโ€”are equipped with the skills and competencies required to meet organizational and client expectations.ย 

Aligning Skills with Competency Frameworks for Lasting Impact

The client sought to create a realistic, AI-powered simulation to provide emerging consultants with a sandbox environment to practice, refine, and solidify critical skills. The program aimed to:ย 

  • Strengthen competencies aligned with the client’s Emerging Consultants Competency Framework.ย 
  • Provide a risk-free, immersive environment to experiment and learn.ย 
  • Deliver personalized feedback and skill reports for targeted development.ย 
  • Ensure consistent training quality and scalability across global teams.ย 

The initiative targeted both current and incoming consultants, ensuring ongoing alignment with defined behavioral benchmarks.ย 

From Theory to Practice: Immersive Simulations for Skill Reinforcement

KNOLSKAPE designed and delivered AI Konsult, a scenario-based simulation that mimics โ€œA Day in the Life ofโ€ฆโ€ an emerging consultant in the organization. This was powered by Conversational AI to provide both text and audio interaction capabilities, creating a highly engaging and realistic training environment.ย
