Learn how Coursera equips students with the most in-demand skills and prepares them for job success

As AI continues to reshape jobs, universities must invest in skills development to ensure graduates can adapt to ongoing changes in the workplace and build successful careers. However, identifying the relevant skills to incorporate into academic programmes remains a challenge for many institutions. The 2024 Coursera Global Skills Report highlights essential skills that need to be integrated into courses to produce work-ready graduates who can meet rapidly changing industry demands.

Times Higher Education hosted a virtual roundtable on the topic – in partnership with Coursera – bringing together senior leaders from academia and industry to share insights on the key trends shaping the skills landscape in APAC, the impact of AI on learning and enhancing skills development to boost graduate success.

Watch the on-demand video of the virtual roundtable to find out more about:

  • How universities are navigating the skills landscape across the APAC region
  • What data institutions must collect and monitor to identify critical skills, integrate skills education into the curricula and develop graduate’s skills proficiency
  • Challenges facing universities when embedding skills education into curricula to close classroom-workforce graduate skills gap and meeting industrial demands
  • The potential impact of online learning courses such as industrial microcredentials and professional certificates on equitable access and opportunities for skills development, bridging the digital skills divide and preparing graduates for digital roles
  • How university-industry partnerships can maximise graduate employment opportunities, boost skills-based business transformation and create lifelong learners
