According to the report, the employment market in India is expanding quickly, with 40% of workers there needing retraining within the next five years and 60% needing to upskill in order to be competitive. “Leaders play an essential role in helping their employees build the skills they need while maintaining a competitive edge in the job market,” says Vinay Pradhan, Country Manager for India and South Asia at Udemy. Companies must put time, money, and effort into self-learning platforms and research laboratories so that employees can experiment and improve business performance through technical skill training in order to increase overall security, reliability, and maintain business agility.
The combination of business, interpersonal, and technological abilities is the secret to success in today's digital enterprises, he continued. Business executives are prioritizing training in cloud platforms and a few other programming languages as they realize the value of the cloud and associated technologies. These trends account for the increasing demand for cloud computing expertise, which will promote collaboration and teamwork, lessen conflict, and increase output.
