You\u2019ve undoubtedly heard of the \u201cupskilling\u201d trend in which employers retrain\/reskill employees they feel are lacking the skills the company needs to succeed in a high-tech future.<\/p>\n

The employer wins because it takes valued, loyal employees and provides them with valuable skills: there\u2019s no need to let the person go and search for a replacement\/someone with the needed skills.<\/p>\n

The team member wins, too, of course: new skills at (probably) no cost, a pay raise because of the new skill (probably). And, a new skill he or she can take elsewhere should the need arise.<\/p>\n

Yet employees also tend to stick around when reskilled\/upskilled: nine of 10 employees say they would stay at their companies longer if the company invested in helping them learn\/gain new skills<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Yet you shouldn\u2019t wait for your employer to offer you this type of training: you should go out and seek it yourself. Regularly.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Why?<\/p>\n

As an April Forbes.com article put it<\/a>: \u201c[r]apid advancements in technology, changing industry dynamics and increasing demands for specialized skills have all made upskilling a necessary component of career success.\u201d<\/p>\n

Technology is evolving at lightning speed today, with industries undergoing constant transformation. Upskilling\/reskilling are becoming the life jackets in the vast sea of professional growth.<\/p>\n

Or, to put it another way: learn new skills regularly or watch your career opportunities \u2013 if not even actual jobs \u2013 pass you by.<\/strong><\/p>\n

New software, tools, automation, and even advances in artificial intelligence are popping up every day, revolutionizing industries across the board. Skills that once were in high demand have gone the proverbial way of the dodo: to extinction.<\/p>\n

You risk becoming outdated and obsolete by keeping your head down and ignoring the need for upskilling\/reskilling.<\/p>\n

Today\u2019s job market is highly competitive: employers constantly seek out candidates with the latest knowledge and expertise.<\/p>\n

Continuously honing your skills increases your value to employers<\/strong><\/p>\n

Yes, you offer more skills, but there\u2019s something else about you that\u2019s attractive: your proven willingness to adapt and learn new things. You also exhibit dedication to professional growth, a quality employers tend to value.<\/p>\n

You also future-proof your career. Rather than becoming a victim of automation or economic shifts, your adaptability allows you to thrive in just about any circumstance.<\/p>\n

The right skills coupled with the right attitude will help you transition to new roles or even new industries.<\/p>\n

Upskilling\/reskilling on your own.<\/strong><\/p>\n

If you\u2019ve decided to learn more skills on your time (and probably your own dime), take a look at your current skills, and then do some research into skills employers are now looking for that could be a good segue for you to upskill\/reskill to.<\/p>\n

For example: let\u2019s say you\u2019re a marketer who sees that more and more data is going to be used to help companies market their products.<\/p>\n

Yet your marketing skills are more on the creative side than the data side.<\/p>\n

You see that your company is more and more looking for data scientists. You have some experience in marketing analytics, yet because you see the growth \u2013 and demand for \u2013 marketing data scientists, you know you\u2019ll need to up your game into deeper data analytics.<\/p>\n

Classes\/training in data analysis, business analytics could be in your future. \u00a0There are many such courses available at your local colleges. Many online programs also exist: just do a Google search and just watch what pops up. Some may be free.<\/p>\n

You also could attend workshops, join professional communities that focus on the skills you wish to enhance.<\/p>\n

In other words, don\u2019t be shy about continuous learning. Be bold and make it a point to explore new areas of expertise.<\/p>\n

Remember: change \u2013 it could be argued \u2013 is more \u201cconstant\u201d than ever. Those who prepare for it are the ones who flourish.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Aim to look at upskilling\/reskilling as something you\u2019ll take on throughout your career. The more you invest in yourself, the greater your chances of staying relevant \u2013 and employable.<\/p>\n
