«The role of Long-life learning in a new skills-first context»

Abstract

We are living in a unique and transformational moment of the history of work. Jobs are changing, even if you’re not changing jobs. And it is happening at an increasing rate, accelerated by the pandemic. Upkeeping your skills is becoming key to stay relevant in the labor market. Recent LinkedIn data shows the skill sets for jobs have changed by around 25% since 2015. By 2027, this number is expected to double. Currently the 40% of hirers use skills data when hiring on LinkedIn, up 20% compared to a year prior. And our data suggests the skills required to do your job don’t stay constant. They’re changing, and this change is only accelerating.

 During the event we will discuss how long-life learning is a foundational enabler to success in this this fast changing talent ecosystem.
