With remote working becoming more prevalent and technology continuing to disrupt, it’s crucial for businesses to keep up in today’s fast-changing digital market.
A recent 2021 study conducted by RMIT Online together with Deloitte found that around 87% of jobs in Australia require a level of digital skills in order to keep pace with the evolving business environment. This means there is a growing digital knowledge gap and employees will need to learn additional digital skills to stay relevant both in their organisations and for their own careers.
Even business professionals whose jobs don’t require complex digital skills still spend significant amounts of time relying on technology. From communicating with team members to sharing data, updating digital platforms to project management, technology is embedded in every element of today’s working environment.
