In the past few years prior to COVID-19, there has been an escalating discussion regarding the need for mass reskilling. A McKinsey Global Institute Report said that by 2030, 75 million to 375 million workers would be displaced as a result of an accelerating digital economy with large swaths of the workforce requiring retraining. Now, with COVID-19, 195 million jobs worldwide will be displaced in this quarter alone, according to the UN’s labor body.
