EDUCATION
GITEX Tech Week:
Physical closure of educational institutes in over 177 countries around the world has affected nearly 1.3 billion students, about 72.4% of total enrolled, thus disrupting traditional learning methods (source -UNESCO). The jarring impact of the pandemic has also transformed into a global economic and labor market shock. Employers, governments, and workers are collaborating to reset the labor markets. Keeping all this in mind, what will be the new future of work?
Future Blockchain Summit:
As the education further transitions to digital learning following COVID-19, adopting new technologies has taken on a greater urgency to replace inefficient procedures from archaic and paper-based bureaucracies. Blockchain solutions will allow data to be validated between institutions. Students can access and share educational records qualifications from anywhere at any time, and for organisations to trust these without knowing their source. This program looks at how higher education will be transformed through blockchain.
