Vocational Training Through Media
Remote Work Skills for the Modern Age
The world, the economy and the workplace are changing. Automation and Artificial Intelligence are eliminating many traditional professions. Many, even those with advanced degrees and tenured jobs, are wondering if they are prepared for the future of work and money.
Ignoring new careers, industries and markets puts us at a disadvantage.
According to Forbes:
71% of remote workers said remote work helps balance their work and personal life
Remote workers on average earn $19,000 more than in-office workers
93% of employers plan to continue conducting job interviews remotely
Among workers 24-35 years old, 39% work remotely full time
By 2025, over 32 million Americans will work remotely
“The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.“ - Alan Watts
Resistance to (and anxiety about) change is futile, in the long run. The best thing to do, for yourself and your family, is to adapt to the change. Learn the skills of the future economy. Set yourself up to simultaneously avoid the pitfalls of changes and benefit from those same changes.
This class represents a path. At the end of the path is as much security, fulfillment and income as can responsibly be promised without psychic abilities to predict the future. There are no guarantees. All of the training and preparation in the world can be offset by an unforeseen event - a natural disaster, an illness or a change in laws.
What we can promise: methodical, well-informed and patient support and lessons to guide you down the path.
