In the UK, nearly two in three (64%) report spending more on recruitment, with costs increasing by 49 per cent or £1.23 billion in total because of the skills shortage. The effort will give support to IBM’s existing programs and career building platforms to expand access to education and in-demand technical roles.
In India, IBM will proceed the partnerships with the Ministry of Abilities Improvement & Entrepreneurship, MEITY, Board of Open Education and Talent Training – Sikkim, Navodaya Vidyalaya Samiti (DST), CBSE, Talent Improvement Councils in Goa, Telangana and Andhra Pradesh, NPTEL- IIT-Madras and lots of others by way of implementing companions to upskill youth from throughout the nation.
“Talent is everywhere; training opportunities are not,” said Arvind Krishna, IBM Chairman and CEO. “This is why we must take big and bold steps to expand access to digital skills and employment opportunities so that more people, regardless of their background, can take advantage of the digital economy.”
