• Accessible Education: Online resources provide personalised learning opportunities, replacing the outdated notion of completing early education.

• Digital Literacy: Proficiency in technology usage (both basic computer skills and adaptability to new digital tools).

• Equal Access to Education: Closing the digital gap ensures everyone can access essential skills, regardless of background.

• Flexible Careers: Traditional career paths are fading (individuals may switch roles or industries multiple times)

• Collaborative Learning: Building networks through social media, professional groups, and online communities can open new opportunities for both education and employment.

• Staying Competitive: Lifelong learning is vital for individuals and companies to remain productive and competitive in a changing work landscape.
