🚀 Yesterday, we hosted an insightful event as part of the EDUCATED Series titled "Teach, Reskill, or Acquire - How to Solve the Labour Crisis?" The discussion focused on the pressing challenges confronting Lithuania's labor market, including an aging population and a significant shortage of essential skills." 🇱🇹

👉 For those who could not join us, you're invited to watch the session here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x3T9NQcbOTc

📣 A highlight of the event was the profound insights shared by Agnė Kudarauskienė, Deputy Minister at the Ministry of Education, Science, and Sport. She illuminated the striking imbalance in our education system. With Vilnius boasting the highest concentration of individuals with higher education in Europe, it confronts a paradox where only 30% of jobs require such advanced qualifications. This revelation sparks a vital dialogue on the value of degrees versus specialized courses in today’s rapidly evolving job market. 🎓➡️🛠️

The conversation also explored effective strategies for onboarding employees to ensure their success beyond the first week, with our member Vextur emphasizing the importance of integrating Learning Management Systems (LMS) within companies. 💼

📣 We stand at a pivotal moment where the need to adapt, reskill, and reassess our educational and professional development frameworks has never been more critical. Let's continue the dialogue on how we can collectively tackle these challenges and build a resilient and skilled workforce for the future. 💪🚀

📣 A heartfelt thank you to Agnė Kudarauskienė (Ministry of Education, Science and Sport), Fausta Benaitytė, Marcišaukas (Vextur), Giedrė Žlibinienė ( ), Eva Kakliugina, and Aistė Kumponaitė (Talentator), Jurgita Jaruševičienė (Mokosi) for their invaluable contributions.
