What is Upskilling<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Upskill is the process of an employee or an individual learning a new skill. As individuals it is important that we learn and unlearn new skills regularly to stay up to date with emerging trends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reasons to Upskill<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

There are new advancements in existing technologies that demand that professionals be aware of all the <\/span>changes, and some technologies are completely changing the nature of certain professions. To put that in context, the World Economic Forum estimates that 65%<\/strong> of children entering primary school now will be working in jobs that do not currently exist.  <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each working professional is now aware that they need to be constantly learning in order to stay relevant in the work-force and secure their future careers. <\/span>But what they choose to learn is also very important. Nobody wants to be stuck with a pager when the entire world uses cell phones. This also applies to freshers and early-career professionals, who need to build the right skills so that they don\u2019t waste time working in domains that may soon become obsolete.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

At Great Learning<\/strong>, we\u2019ve seen over 10,000 learners<\/strong> who have transitioned to rewarding careers in domains that we are sure would build the future. We\u2019ve specifically chosen to design programs in these domains, after extensive research on long-term growth prospects and employment opportunities that will be made available in the future.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The World Economic Forum has estimated that 75 million jobs will be displaced by AI by 2024<\/strong>. But it\u2019s also going to add 133 million jobs in the same time frame. That\u2019s a net gain of 58 million jobs that will be available for qualified professionals. <\/span><\/h6>\n\n\n\n
In addition to the availability of jobs, there\u2019s a massive shortage of AI professionals in India, because 76% of companies say they have trouble implementing AI due to lack of qualified employees<\/strong> , <\/span>this huge demand is combined with AI influencing every other domain, it\u2019s an obvious choice for anyone wanting to work with a technology of the future. <\/span><\/h6>\n\n\n\n
