The World Economic Forum estimates 1 billion people will need to be reskilled by 2030. This global skills gap represents a looming crisis across all industries we serve. Customers have been telling us for years that a retiring workforce coupled with a lack of younger workers entering their industries is leaving jobs unfilled. Add to that the emergence of automation increasing the need for workers to develop a new set of skills, there are now more new roles and new jobs than ever before opening up without the talent to fill them.
To address this challenge, Autodesk is developing lifelong learning solutions to help workers keep pace by learning new skills and earning professional credentials that will create opportunity. The Future of Work has already arrived, and automation is commonplace across our industries. We’re here to help our customers get the professional skills they need to thrive.
