The Digital Talent Forecast

Mapping the Evolving Role of Digital Skills in a Dynamic Labor Market

The COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated many of the digital shifts that were already reshaping the world of work—and increased the urgency for employers to understand the evolving role of tech skills in the labor market. As the demand for digital skills continues to spread across an expanding range of industries and traditionally non-technical roles, how can business leaders forecast the need for tech talent, not just today, but in the months and years to come?

General Assembly and Emsi Burning Glass partnered up to tackle this topic head-on. The Digital Talent Forecast incorporates original research from Emsi Burning Glass, as well as insights from General Assembly’s community of business leaders, to shed light on the challenges—and opportunities—facing a labor market that is increasingly defined by digital skills.
