The coronavirus pandemic has shuttered down millions of organizations, forcing people to work from home. As the virus has crossed the oceans and affected almost every country on the map, the government is forcing strict measures to control the spread. One of these measures is working from home. For the first time in history millions of people are working from home. As global universities, colleges and schools are closing down students and teachers are moving toward online platforms for lectures and seminars. Although it is one of the challenging times of the century, the remote employees can take advantage of the free time in their hands to upskill and reskill to tackle down the marketing and economic changes post-pandemic.

ProICT Training- one of the renowned names in the field of professional training providers has started to provide online certification and training courses to enhance the knowledge and skills of the candidates during the quarantine. The global sector was already struggling with the talent crisis and in need of upskilling and reskilling. This pandemic lockdown can allow global students to experiment with online learning. In other words, now is the right time to take online training courses.

The leading professional at ProICT Training Mr. Arun Tyagi explains that “countries like Europe are investing in online training as a response to the economic impact of COVID-19. The commission has passed the official statement that it Stand Ready to Support measures that protect the employees during the crisis including upskilling and reskilling programs that have proven effective in the past. Meanwhile Singapore is also investing in online training to support the upskilling and reskilling for the sectors that have been hit the hardest by the effects of the pandemic. Other countries are more likely to follow the same suit very soon.
He further explained that “employees who have a family at home are working with the additional pressure of the childcare as schools are closed until the further announcement. However, as many companies are not working at their fullest potential so, they can spare some time for online training certification courses as well.” The highlights that the government is giving more preference to online education to fill the skill gap in the sector.

There are more opportunities in the market than ever and once this pandemic is over people are going to raid their favorite products they missed during the quarantine. This time organizations need professionals who can meet the demand while maintaining the profit and people who have upskilled during this time can take advantage of the opportunities later.
