This partnership will address the need to continually upskill, especially as the world contends with the economic impact of COVID-19.
This series of professional short courses will enable learners to meet the skills demand for long-term career success.

According to Burning Glass research, 69 percent of all 2019 job postings from the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation economies are in digital occupations. The global pandemic has highlighted the need for digital fitness in today’s workforce and accelerated transformation that was already underway. This shift presents a critical opportunity for workers to utilise this time to upskill and reskill, deepening the value of certifications in such skillsets to advance one’s career.
This announcement further underscores Wiley’s mission to support learning success by delivering best-in-class content that accelerates the success of today’s learners and professionals, clearing the path for long-term success in high-demand, high-growth careers.
