Pledges made to the Digital Skills and Jobs Coalition have already reached over 16 million beneficiaries with digital skills training, certification, placements, and awareness raising activities taking place within nearly 380 initiatives across four target groups: citizens, labour force, ICT specialists and in education.
Now, organisations who pledge to the Coalition for the upskilling and reskilling in digital skills of the Labour Force and ICT Specialist groups can also indicate their participation in the Pact for Skills through the ‘Special Interest’ field. These labelled pledges will benefit from all the searchable functions and visibility provided by the Pledge Viewer, including the Scoreboard.
To celebrate this, a new format of the Pledger logo has been developed so that pledgers can demonstrate their dual commitment on their own website and channels.
Organisations interested in shaping the digital labour force of the future are encouraged to visit the Pledge Viewer and be inspired to take part and make a pledge. Potential pledgers can avail of a wealth of resources to help them from the Support Page with personalised support from the DSJC Secretariat at [email protected]
