From the article:
* "The coronavirus crisis has hurried the arrival of the “future of work”.
* Lockdown has seen widescale remote working, increasing automation, a global revaluation of the care economy and a more visible lack of social protection within the gig economy.
* There is an opportunity to “build back better” in 5 areas: reskilling and upskilling; supporting the jobs of tomorrow; prioritizing redeployment and re-empoyment; re-evaluating essential work and improving the quality of jobs; and resetting education, skills and jobs systems for the post-pandemic recovery."

Short Article: 6 Reasons Why Higher Education Needs to Be Disrupted
Title:
6 Reasons Why Higher Education Needs to Be Disrupted
Authors:
Tomas Chamorro-Premuzic & Becky Frankiewicz
Published:
Harvard Business Review, 19 November 2019
From the article:
"On the surface, universities are a nice idea. You go in, pick a subject you like, learn from the experts, and leave being job- and future-ready. This is why so many people (around 40% in rich countries) decide to go to college, even if it means making big financial and personal sacrifices. Yet just because so many people are doing it doesn't mean it's necessarily a good thing to do."

"A recent World Economic Forum report noted that some estimates show automation could displace 75 million jobs by 2022, while at the same time creating 133 million new roles. While these estimates predict a net positive for the number of new jobs in the coming decade, displaced workers will need to learn new skills to adapt to the changes. If employees can't be retrained quickly for jobs in the changing economy, society is likely to face some degree of turmoil."
