USGM IN A NUTSHELLWhy EMPLOY?
Young learners with inadequate digital skills may be at increased risk of becoming professionally marginalized in the future.
Low skilled individuals, who may in the present be attracted by jobs with limited entry level requirements, may face increased professional challenges in the future as the demand for highly skilled workers rises.
