Upskill Your Workforce
What Is Upskilling?
Unlike learning a new skill to match a specific task, upskilling a workforce is a broader process that enables continuous learning via bespoke training programmes and strategic development opportunities that expand an employee's abilities whilst simultaneously minimising skill gaps.
What once may have been viewed as a luxury is now a must for companies big and small that want to remain competitive and cost-efficient as the role of technology in the workplace grows at an exponential rate.
The Digital Landscape
According to a report published by the World Economic Forum in 2020, 85 million jobs will be disrupted by automation and a new division of labour between humans and machines.
At first glance, this may sound alarming; however, with change comes opportunity, and it’s expected that close to 100 million new roles will emerge as markets and industries adapt to the new ways of working.
That’s why, from the receptionist to area manager, engineer to the chief executive officer, upskilling and reskilling are going to be a fundamental part of ensuring workforces around the world remain in step with the digital revolution.
