Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements Disclosure [Text Block] | (1) Description of Business and Basis of Presentation Description of Business Skillsoft Corp. (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, “Skillsoft”, “we”, “us”, “our” and the “Company”) empowers organizations and learners to unlock their full potential by delivering personalized, interactive learning experiences and enterprise-ready solutions. Our Class A Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“common stock”), has been listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol “SKIL” since June 14, 2021. We have two operating and reportable segments: Talent Development Solutions (“TDS”) and Global Knowledge (“GK”). Information about our segments is described in Note 20. References in the accompanying footnotes to the Company’s fiscal year refer to the fiscal year ended January 31 of that year (e.g., fiscal 2025 is the fiscal year ended January 31, 2025). Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Financial Statement Preparation The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Skillsoft Corp. and its subsidiaries, all of which are wholly-owned. We prepared the accompanying consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Use of Estimates The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported periods. We base our judgments, estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. The economic environment also impacts certain estimates and discount rates necessary to prepare our consolidated financial statements, including significant estimates and discount rates applicable to the determination of the fair values used in the impairment testing of our nonfinancial assets. Our assessment of these factors forms the basis for our judgments on the carrying values of our assets and liabilities, and the accrual of our costs and expenses. Actual results could differ materially from our estimates. We review our estimates and underlying assumptions on an ongoing basis and make revisions as determined necessary by management. Revisions are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and may also impact future periods.
