AI AND DIGITAL SKILLS: THE FUTURE OF EDUCATION

Artificial intelligence and digital skills are becoming increasingly important in conversations about the future of education in Nigeria.

Education experts are calling for a more practical and transformational education system, with greater emphasis on skills that can prepare students for the changing world of work.

This is particularly important for today’s students because the jobs they eventually enter may look very different from the jobs their parents did.

Skills such as artificial intelligence, coding, graphic design, digital marketing, video editing, data analysis and content creation are becoming increasingly valuable.

The big question for young Nigerians is no longer simply, “What certificate do I have?” but also, “What can I do with my knowledge and skills?”

Students who begin learning useful digital skills early could give themselves an advantage in an increasingly technology-driven economy.
