Post-Pandemic: What Skills do Employees Need?

Are you tired of talking about the pandemic? So are we. That’s why we’re adopting a forward-facing approach to help you prepare for what comes next as you hit the job market. Whether you are gearing up for your first professional job or hoping to ditch your current gig to shift careers, we’ve got you. And there’s never been a better opportunity!

 

While everyone else remains in COVID-19 recovery mode, you can be ahead of the curve. Before April 2020, demand for digital skills was off the charts. Combine that with the massive adoption of working from home during COVID-19 and projections estimating that about a third of the workforce will work from home by the end of 2021, digital skills are in massively high demand.

 

 

Advanced digital skills include understanding data concepts, advanced analytics, data visualization, and more. These don’t exactly come naturally to us, which is why Tamwood offers a fleet of innovative programs that teach you the digital skills you need to succeed post-pandemic. We offer:
