Williamson College of the Trades has formed a new partnership with Leaderly AI, a mobile application designed to grow leadership habits through continuous learning and engagement. The utilization of Leaderly AI provides Williamson students, faculty, staff, alumni, and trustees with a continuous learning and engagement experience that grows both self-curiosity and Williamson connection.
The Leaderly AI platform was developed by experts in education, the military, behavioral sciences, business and the human performance fields of psychology and leadership development, and uses a special blend of behavioral sciences, personalization, and machine learning to help anyone increase their leadership skills on a regular and reinforcing basis.
Through Leaderly, students, alumni, and other members of the Williamson community will gain access to real-time feedback, customized learning pathways, and scenario-based training tailored to individual growth areas. The platform complements Williamson’s hands-on, values-based education by reinforcing critical soft skills such as teamwork, problem-solving, and effective communication.
“Williamson has always been committed to developing not only highly skilled tradesmen, but principled leaders,” said Michael Rounds, President at Williamson College of the Trades. “Partnering with Leaderly AI App allows us to expand our impact by equipping students and members of our college community with modern tools that accelerate their personal and professional development.”
Leaderly AI App uses advanced artificial intelligence to simulate workplace interactions, helping users practice leadership in realistic environments. The app’s data-driven insights enable students to track progress over time and build confidence in navigating complex interpersonal situations—an essential skill set for today’s workforce.
“We are inspired by the commitment of the Williamson community to give everyone this life-changing benefit, evident in their over 4,500 hours of microlearning and engagement in just four months” said Will Huff, Vice President of Partnerships at Leaderly AI. “In our partnership, we are empowering students and members of the college community to become impactful leaders in their trades and in their lives.”
This collaboration reflects Williamson’s continued commitment to innovation in education and its mission to prepare graduates for lifelong success in both their careers and communities. At a recent assembly, the top Williamson student participants of the app were recognized with polo shirts.
Williamson alumni can take advantage of this free resource by downloading the app, entering code 1888, and selecting the Williamson gear icon to navigate the tool. For more information on Leaderly, visit leaderlyapp.com.
