How will students develop the soft skills they need for the future of work?

February 5, 2020

In 2020 we're working with 1000's of high school students across Australia to equip them with employability skills, access to amazing industry mentors, and best practice career education so they can start planning and building their future pathways now.

One of our key focus areas is teaching students about the development of soft skills - those fundamental social, emotional and technological skills - which are becoming more crucial as intelligent machines and automation take over more physical, repetitive and basic cognitive tasks in our global workforce.

This latest research from McKinsey & Company shows that current HR professionals report difficulty in recruiting candidates and recent graduates who possess the necessary soft skills for an automating world, and that today's students critically need to acquire these skills to ensure they successfully gain employability beyond school or tertiary study.

See the article here.
