Global Annual Review 2024
Explore our Global Annual Review 2024 where we share how over 370,000 PwC people have helped to solve important challenges this year.
Everyone should be able to live, learn, work and participate in the digital world.
The accelerating pace at which technology is developing has impacted businesses and our daily lives. One area that continues to experience rapid change? Jobs. We see new roles being created, while others fade out. The gap between the skills people have today and the ones needed for tomorrow is growing at an unmatched rate, and it will continue to widen if nothing is done.
We believe the need to upskill is a critical issue that deserves considerable attention. That’s why the PwC global network is investing US$3bn that will go towards upskilling over the next four years.
At PwC Vietnam, our people are our greatest assets, and we’ve invested in training to ensure they are prepared for the future of work. But our commitment to upskilling doesn’t stop there. It extends to helping other organisations identify and address the challenges within their workforce, and reaching underprivileged communities who may not have access to upskilling opportunities.
That’s how we hope to bridge the digital divide.

55% say it is the responsibility of individuals to reskill. However, businesses and governments can play important roles in addressing the upskilling gap. |

Upskilling is not just about digital skills. While there is an increase in demand for skills like data analytics and coding, for example, soft skills such as curiosity, innovation and adaptability are equally important. Building a culture that will support this environment will be foundational to an organisation’s upskilling journey.
To upskill, we believe organisations should place strategic focus on:
Build strategic plans to deal with the skills gaps which have the most impact on delivering business value.
Rapidly review and refresh upskilling strategy
Make inclusion a priority
Improve effectiveness of learning organisation & tech
Test strategic alternatives and scale best-performing programmes
