Annual FJST Forum pushes for transformation on various fronts

According to a recent Alight Solutions study, close to two-thirds of the 670 APAC organisations surveyed plan on implementing more robust people analytics in the next 12 to 24 months. However, capability shortage and the lack of consolidated data are seen as big roadblocks that need to be addressed.

Addressing this capability shortage was high on the agenda for the second edition of the Future Jobs, Skills and Training (FJST) Forum themed “Transformation in Action”, where union leaders, government agencies, tripartite and management partners come together to share real-world successes in industry transformation.

Organised by NTUC (National Trades Union Congress) on 1 February 2019, the focus of these trends and best practices was on the manufacturing, marine engineering, healthcare and financial services sectors. The speakers and panellists also discussed frameworks that will help workers overcome the challenges of industry transformation and facilitate transition into the future.

Alongside the event, NTUC released a set of exclusive infographics on technology for the future – data analytics, artificial intelligence, blockchain, internet of things and cybersecurity.

These were curated by the FJST team with inputs from Tech Talent Assembly, to help learn more about these technologies, their possible applications across industries and where you can learn more to set transformation in action.
