Top 10 Technology and Adaptive Courses to Upskill Yourself

LXP 14 Sep 2023

Digitalisation Cannot Truly Replace You

The growing pace of digitalization means that habitualising learning will be a mainstay. According to NTUC LearningHub’s latest report on Emerging Jobs and Skills, many workers have turned to upskilling opportunities outside the workplace due to concerns over the effects of digitalisation.

Yet, while the use of technology is important in achieving business outcomes, human capital remains at the heart of digitalisation. Human-centric skills are as pertinent as ever amidst the wave of digital transformation.  

While automation may perform repetitive technical duties efficiently without error, they are limited when it comes to complex tasks. Employees will need to take on higher-value jobs to add value to business processes where technologies fall short.

 

Acquiring New Skills as a Routine to Stay Employable

Many employers are now looking to hire candidates with a broader set of skills to take on hybrid roles, according to our Emerging Jobs and Skills report. What this means is that you should be constantly on the lookout for the latest employer-coveted skillsets in which to upskill yourself to boost your value to employers.                  

Currently, the job roles in-demand like data analysis, data visualisation and strategy & operations all require both technology and adaptive skills. Besides technology skills like cybersecurity and digital marketing, acquiring skills in areas like communications and problem-solving will make you much more adaptable, help you analyse situations critically and resolve them creatively.

Aligned with current in-demand skills and job trends, these top LXP – LHUB GO courses is a great place to start your learning journey.
