Genesis of Future Skills

Under the aegis of NASSCOM, a Skills of the Future Workgroup was set up, with representatives from the Industry to understand the implications of the disruption caused by technology. Led by BCG, a research was conducted to understand the shape of future skilling/reskilling initiative that will be able to deal with the wave of digital disruption. The research identified the technologies poised to grow tremendously, associated job roles and corresponding skills required for those technologies. FutureSkills thus focuses on 155+ skills spanning across 70+ job roles on 10 emerging technologies namely Artificial Intelligence, Blockchain, Big Data Analytics, Cloud Computing, Cyber Security, Internet of Things, Mobile Tech, Robotic Process Automation, Virtual Reality & 3D Printing were identified.
