Future-proofing in a pandemic-hit jobs market

There may be a gap between the skills employers are looking for and the skills you will be leaving college with shortly. Bridging this gap is a central focus of Government through the Springboard programme.

All the courses aim to reskill people in areas where job opportunities in skilled employment are growing: ICT; high-level manufacturing; medical devices; biopharma; international financial services; skills to trade internationally; entrepreneurship and business start-up; and niche skills in the construction industry.

In 2020 the Government introduced a Human Capital Initiative pillar 1 programme. Higher education institutions were invited to submit applications for funding under the HCI call for proposals for graduate conversion. A graduate training programme is a way of bridging this gap by easing new entrants into the world of work and equipping them with the necessary skills required by the organisation.
