Iterable, the AI-powered customer communication platform, unveiled its comprehensive AI Learning Path and Certification Program within Iterable Academy, the company’s free online learning hub. This new curriculum empowers marketers to develop expertise in both Iterable’s AI Suite and broader AI-driven marketing strategies, equipping them to drive measurable results through intelligent automation. This launch comes at a critical time as AI adoption accelerates across the marketing industry and among Iterable’s customer base, with over 85% of Iterable’s 1,200+ customers – including Cinemark, Wolt, and Nextdoor – already leveraging its powerful AI capabilities.

Building on the proven success of Iterable Academy—with an industry-leading 85% course completion rate that vastly outpaces the 13% industry average—the new AI Learning Path addresses the soaring demand for practical, accessible AI education for marketing professionals globally. The program’s launch reflects Iterable’s commitment to empowering marketers with the skills needed to drive measurable results through AI technology.

“Continuous growth and learning are at the heart of how I approach my work, which is why I’ve embraced the Iterable Academy as a critical resource to help me uplevel my marketing skills,” shared Aaron Flatt, Director, Growth Marketing at Realtors Property Resource® (RPR®), an exclusive online real estate database. “The courses have empowered my team and me to fine-tune our cross-channel strategies and adopt advanced approaches to using Iterable’s platform. Ultimately, our goal is to ensure our customers receive the best and most personalized experience possible—a goal that Iterable and their Academy help us achieve. With the introduction of the new AI Learning Path, I’m eager to explore AI and discover the powerful ways to harness this new tech to elevate our marketing efforts.”

Unlocking AI Mastery for Every Marketing Team

AI is fundamentally reshaping the business landscape, with adoption reaching unprecedented levels—studies reveal that 99% of Fortune 500 companies leverage AI, with 42% of enterprise-scale organizations now actively integrating AI in their operations. However, as businesses embrace these advanced technologies, a critical challenge has emerged: a shortage of AI skills and expertise. Many marketing teams acknowledge they are unprepared to harness AI’s full potential, underscoring an urgent need for practical education and high-quality, accessible training solutions to bridge the gap between rapid AI adoption and workforce readiness.

Responding to this challenge, Iterable’s new AI Learning Path and Certification Program delivers a flexible, customizable curriculum that combines strategic fundamentals, practical applications, and hands-on product experience. The new curriculum, offered completely free of charge, allows marketers to tailor their learning journey to their specific needs and interests, whether they’re just beginning their AI journey or looking to master advanced applications.
