Turning life as we know it upside down, the COVID-19 pandemic has jumpstarted the digital economy, forever changing how the global markets work. Shining the spotlight on the changes brought about by rapid digitalization and its effect on new entrants to the global workplace, this conference will tackle the new requirements for success: digital literacy framework, global communication standards, micro-credentials vis-a-vis a college degree, Philippine PISA results vis-a-vis national competitiveness, and the ability to adapt to remote work, the gig economy, hybrid workforces and globally connected teams.
