dc.description.abstractCurrent technological trends are reshaping the educational services toward the delivery of an improved blend of vocational training and general education--deemed essential for continuous upskilling--in digital economies. The lessons learned by coding bootcamps, acting as skills accelerators, can potentially be shared in traditional education and training settings. The development of a digital talent pipeline for upskilling and reskilling is critical in modern economies; however, to carry it out effectively will require an in-depth understanding on the part of public and private leaders, alike, of the technological potential and talent gaps that are specific to different industries, countries, and regions.
