Digital literacy will be enhanced in the workplace

Considering developments in the technological sector, digital literacy goes well beyond basic comprehension of computers in our current era. Workers need to have a wide range of skills which are increasingly necessary to succeed in the workplace. It is expected that within the next five years, 90 percent of the workforce will require at least basic computer skills such as email or company software. In the next 2-3 years, more than 50 percent will need to be able to use, configure and build computerised systems. Those who lack digital literacy may find themselves at a huge disadvantage.
