As the world shakes off the last vestiges of the Pandemic, you will need to relook into your skill tool if at all you want to remain relevant post coronavirus.
This is according to a job sector study conducted by a recruitment agency in the country that was released on Wednesday.
The study identified a select set of skills that employers would be looking for post covid as companies seek to maximize employee output while minimising their overhead bills. Soft skills like adaptability and agility, emotional intelligence, growth mindset, and creativity is what employers will be looking for. On the other hand, hard skills like digital and coding skills, data analytics and literacy, technology skills, and security will be the most sought after skills that you need to possess if at all you want to remain relevant in the job market “said Brighter Monday chief executive officer Emmanuel Mutuma.
U.S. Mission to Kenya announces Community Grant Initiative – Data Collection Platform
180SHARES
Deadline: 1-Jan-21
The U.S. President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) announces an open solicitation for software companies to submit applications to design a data collection platform for collecting patient and provider feedback at PEPFAR supported health sites.
Program Objectives
PEPFAR Kenya is supporting the collection of routine patient and provider level data related to the quality of services provided at our sites.
The grant recipient will then be responsible for:
A web-based platform to aggregate and visualize patient and provider responses to questions.
A platform that allows the feedback data to be collected via mobile phone or tablet and submitted to the platform.
She also said that many such gender-based violence acts have gone unnoticed due to lack of proper reporting mechanisms which has resulted in family break-ups.
“Nairobi has nothing much to celebrate when it comes to SGBV. The achievement is not what we have been looking forward to. Most of these cases are experienced in informal settlements and slums, but that does not mean that people who live in the estates and high-end areas do not experience this violence, they do,” she said.
The MCA explained that Kenya in general lacked a data management system necessary to locate survivors of SGBV and that the county is in the process of enacting a law on the gender-based violence issue.
