Don’t Just Predict the Future. Be Ready for It.

The world of work is changing faster than ever. According to the World Economic Forum’s 2025 Report, nearly 40% of the skills required for jobs will change by 2030. Artificial Intelligence, the Green Transition, and a shifting global economy are creating 170 million new roles—but they are also making old ones obsolete.

Future Capabilities is your guide to navigating this new landscape. This course goes beyond standard career advice to focus on the "future-proof" skills that robots can't replace and that top employers—from Google to the United Nations—are desperate to find.

🔮 What You Will Explore

We will break down the "Skills of Tomorrow" identified by global leaders into four actionable modules:

• The Human Edge in an AI World:

While demand for AI and Big Data skills is exploding, the most valuable asset you have is your humanity. We’ll explore how to work with technology using Analytical and Creative Thinking—skills that machines still struggle to replicate.

• The Green Revolution:

Sustainability is no longer just a "nice to have"—it’s a massive economic driver. We will dive into the booming field of Environmental Stewardship, exploring how the "Green Transition" is creating high-demand careers in renewable energy, engineering, and ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance).

• Agility & Resilience:

The only constant is change. You will learn the psychological tools for Resilience, Flexibility, and Agility. We will teach you how to "learn how to learn," fostering the Curiosity and Lifelong Learning mindset that is rated as one of the top emerging skills for 2025.

• Influence & Leadership:

In a digital world, human connection matters more than ever. We will cover Leadership and Social Influence, teaching you how to motivate diverse teams and navigate complex social networks—essential skills for the future CEOs and changemakers.

🚀 Why This Matters Now?

• Get Ahead of the Curve: Understand the trends (like the 170 million new jobs in tech and care) before you even choose your college major.
• Develop "Durable" Skills: Learn skills that are transferable across any industry, ensuring you are employable no matter how the market shifts.
• Purpose-Driven Success: Align your future career with global impact areas like climate change and social equity.

The future isn't waiting. Join us to build the toolkit you need to thrive in 2030 and beyond.
