Highly demanded skills

To overcome fear and uncertainty, there is no better antidote than knowledge.

Understanding these technologies and learning how to develop AI-based applications or use machine learning algorithms can open up exciting career opportunities.

  3. Cybersecurity: With the continued evolution of digital threats, cybersecurity skills are essential. Learning about cybersecurity principles, ethical hacking and how to secure networks and systems can help protect sensitive information and contribute to maintaining a safe digital environment. (Because we do nothing by having smart refrigerators that are open doors to cybercriminals).

  4. Digital Marketing: In the digital age, marketing has changed significantly. Learning digital marketing strategies, social media marketing, content creation and search engine optimization can improve your ability to reach and engage online audiences, that creativity and creative skills are unlikely to be replaced by machines.
