Cognizant has announced the expansion of its strategic partnership with Anthropic, becoming one of the "Global Premier Partners" within the Claude Partner Network. This initiative builds upon the collaboration between the two companies announced in late 2025.

The company aims to close the gap between the performance of AI models and the systems actually utilized by enterprises. By leveraging the industry knowledge and engineering expertise required to integrate AI into corporate systems, Cognizant will support AI implementation for companies in sectors such as manufacturing, life sciences, and insurance.

Cognizant currently holds the highest number of Claude certifications worldwide, with over 30,000 employees having completed Claude training. Additionally, through its "Frontier Certified Workforce" model, the company is proceeding with the training of up to 40,000 engineers and operators.
