Coursera (NYSE: COUR) previewed a new AI-native enterprise learning platform, code-named Project Helix, at its annual FWD customer event. The platform is expected to be broadly available to enterprise customers in the first half of 2027.

Project Helix is designed to connect skills discovery, personalized learning paths, and verified workforce capability into a single platform. It draws on the combined content ecosystem of Coursera and Udemy, which merged in May 2026, encompassing more than 30,000 global instructors and content partners.

The platform is intended to allow users to articulate goals in natural language to generate adaptive learning paths, consolidate credentials and skills data, and produce a portable skills record that tracks proficiency over time. Continuous assessment and practical observation are among the mechanisms planned for verifying skill development.

"The next era of enterprise learning depends on moving from standalone content to connected journeys that support skill development, application, and proof," said Greg Hart, CEO of Coursera. "With Project Helix, we are building a true foundation for skills development that starts with the customer's business goals, identifies critical skill needs, and delivers adaptive learning with verified evidence of proficiency."

Coursera said Project Helix will complement ongoing development on both the Coursera and Udemy platforms and is being shaped with input from a select group of partners and customers. Flipkart's Associate Director of Learning, Rajah Swamidoss, was cited in the announcement as a participant in that process.

The combined Coursera and Udemy platforms collectively reach more than 300 million learners and 12,000 enterprise customers worldwide, according to the company.
