Mobile Web Ghana in collaboration with its partners have announced the 2nd edition of the Africa Digital Skills Conference (ADSC) 2021, scheduled from November 9 -11, 2021. This year’s free ADSC event will be held virtually and will bring together technology experts, trainers, and knowledge seekers together on one platform.

The aim of the conference is to provide a platform for teaching and learning of digital skills across the African continent. ADSCwill creates a critical mass of individuals and organizations interested in bridging the skills gap on the continent. It will also offer the opportunity for participants to network, connect and build a solid digital foundation for Africa’s growing economies”. According to a study conducted by International Finance Corporation (IFC), 230 million jobs in Sub-Saharan Africa will require digital skills by 2030, resulting in almost 650 million training opportunities. This presents a great opportunity for the youth to equip themselves with skills that will be in high demand in the near future. Digital literacy and knowledge are now needed in all spheres of life and will be critical for future jobs. The Africa Digital Skills Conference will focus on basic, intermediate, and advanced skills training. Last year, the conference saw more than one thousand registered attendees (1,000), with forty-five trainers (45) from 52 countries and about 40 sessions.

This year, the organizers are looking forward to having an increase in the numbers of participants, mainly from Africa and partly from all over the world. Some of the topics be taught this year includes: ● Getting started with Data Analytics● Data Science and Machine Learning● How to develop a mobile app without coding● Social Media Marketing for Twitter and LinkedIn● Introduction to Cloud Computing● Using data and insights to help your business grow● User journey mapping for digital marketers● Exploratory Data Analysis with Python● Soft skills for IT Professionals● Introduction to Free and Open-Source Software for Geospatial (FOSSG4)

The ADSC is an international conference that seeks to provide students, entrepreneurs, institutions, and the youth at large in Africa with an opportunity to teach and learn basic digital skills and new technologies. The conference promises to be an avenue for knowledge-seekers and experts to connect, learn and share digital skills to help boost Africa’s future jobs and improve economies.
