Twelve years later, the country will have 610,000 young people of working age, while according to current indicators, the rapid development of technology and the introduction of artificial intelligence in various walks of life make up 60% of current jobs at risk of extinction. Real need careful planning and effective strategies.
The efforts of the federal government, local governments in employing citizens and the Minister of Human Resources and Emiratization announced yesterday that his ministry has created 30 thousand jobs for citizens in the private sector and business sector this year, stressing that the ministry is seeking to achieve 5% Private sector as one of the objectives of the national agenda.
However, the problem is big and will be further exacerbated by the development of technology that may eliminate many of these jobs in the private sector. Therefore, a clear roadmap for the future job market must be made. Today, we must break into different areas of technology to turn them into opportunities. By focusing on certain new sectors in technology, energy and transportation, and in all areas of the future, and starting the rehabilitation of UAE youth to enter it, and prepare for it in a scientific manner, planned and planned.
The needs of the future are different from those of the present, and the indicators confirm that 65,000 citizens currently need rehabilitation in order to be able to meet the needs of future work. Any delay in the process of rehabilitation of these citizens automatically increases the numbers that need rehabilitation and leads to loss. A large number of them have their current jobs!
This is the gamble of the UAE and its leaders to enter the world of technology from the widest of its doors confidently and without fear. Technology and artificial intelligence will inevitably affect many jobs, but there are hundreds of other jobs that will need everyone in the future, These jobs have special characteristics, special qualifications, multiple potentials, and here is the turning point. Every young person is responsible for developing his abilities and skills. Each guardian and every government official is responsible for educating, educating and guiding the new generation towards future specializations. The future will not need only to specialists, and will not benefit with knowledge or favoritism, there will be room to hire non-qualified, because they will not be able to keep up with technology, and will not be able to deal with sophisticated technology and computer programming needs.
It is very difficult, so we need to start preparing for it today, and start implementing the future operating strategy, based on the prospect of future jobs and specialties, and feeding today's students with the skills and basic capabilities needed for the coming period, are we ready ?!
