Digital skills for students
The fourth industrial revolution has arrived, and a need for new skills is emerging. Digital skills are at the center of this revolution – and have become a prerequisite for the future workforce.
It’s essential for the children and youth of today not to develop not just basic digital literacy skills, but higher-level skills too. These higher-level skills, such as computer programming and coding skills, have been known to support higher-order mental development as well as encourage under-represented groups to pursue advanced education to enter the fields of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM).
In response to this demand, Ericsson provides online and face-to-face programs that target different age groups and competence levels with digital skill development programs, including programs designed to develop and attract talent into the ICT industry.
