The future of work is really interesting - you can't just learn one skill now and have a career out of that. You need to move and adapt over time so courses like RMIT online are giving the ability to get into those skills really quickly and and fill those gaps and change as needed.

Many of our customers were undertaking digital transformations and I often found myself sitting in meetings with Chief Marketing Officers, Chief, Information Officers, CEOs not really understanding what they were talking about so I really wanted to get a feel for exactly what was going on so that, not only could I lead my team more effectively, but actually could sit in some of these meetings and have a meaningful conversation with some of these clients

Our vision is to build a community of lifelong learners successfully navigating the world of work. We find in addition to our world-class academics, working with companies like Adobe Salesforce realestate.com,
Accenture, really brings relevance in the skills that were taking to our students, in using new technologies and business approaches.

So in terms of the experience of studying online, it was terrific it was flexible it was convenient, the tools were easy to use, the way that courses are structured, the way the contents are delivered gives you the flexibility of effectively logging in and learning on a schedule that suits suits you.

This is a great opportunity to help build those skills that can actually feed our future employee pipeline so we we can actually solve these problems for our clients going forward
