Let’s #UpSkill America

About

1 in 4 adults in OECD countries report a mismatch between their skillsets and the qualifications required to do their current jobs.

6.5 million jobs remain unfilled because employees can’t find workers with the necessary skills. Much of this stems from inadequate worker training.


Problem

What if we don’t react? McKinsey research indicates that up to one-third of U.S. workers, and 800 million globally, could be displayed by 2030.

“Disruptive technological and socio-economic forces threaten to swiftly outdate the shelf life of people’s skillsets and the relevance of what they thought they knew about the path to social mobility and rewarding employment. There is a sense that the rise of artificial intelligence, robotics and other digital developments is upending the primacy of human expertise in the economy.” -World Economic Forum


Solution

We empowered at-risk workers on the brink of losing their jobs due to automation. With #UpSkill, they’re now on a path of lifelong learning.
