Are you looking for an advantage in your job hunt? Getting certified with digital technology training courses from some of the largest platforms like Google, Twitter and Facebook may help.
Technology is involved in virtually every task we do in both our personal lives and at work. From the commute to work which utilises tech like GPS to avoid traffic jams to the tech you need to use as part of your job, technology is integrated into daily life like never before.
Nearly eight in ten workers need some level of digit skills to perform their tasks. If you’re looking for a job, you will be more employable if you have the digital skills employers are looking for.
