About the Author

Information Technologies are changing profoundly the skill profile of students and workers. Mobile internet and cloud technologies are already impacting the way things work. AI, 3D printing and robot programming are still in their early stages of use, and the pace of change is getting faster and faster everyday. To seize the benefits of technological change and to thrive in the digital economy, everyone is required to have a minimum level of IT skills and be capable of adapting continuously as technologies evolve. Change won’t wait for us. Learners and educators must be proactive in up-skilling and continuous learning so they can benefit from the changes ahead. TomorrowSKILLS.COM (a division of HobbyPRESS.NET) develops and publishes books on skills of the future. From visual programming to 3D printing, we aim to offer contents that are relevant to the various 21st century skillsets.
