I was privileged to be part of a webinar session recently
that was organized by Google Digital Skills for Africa, part of the Grow with
Google program. It was geared to offer insights to young people across Africa
on the competencies necessary in identifying job opportunities in the digital
era.
Some of the insights that were shared included an
introduction to digital skills, a brief about industries that require digital
skills, examples of digital careers, as well as the technical skills,
experience, tools, and attitudes that are critical in the digital field.
