New Skills Needed

“Skills are key to the

prosperity of nations and to

better lives for individuals in

the 21st century. They

contribute to economic

growth both directly,

through increased

productivity, and indirectly,

by creating greater capacity

to adopt new technologies

and ways of working and to

spur innovation.”

OECD, 2011

Worldwide Unemployment Rates

Employment for computer network, systems, and

30% from 2008 to 2018 to 1.25 million jobs. That's

faster than the average for all occupations.
