Conventional education is more focused on basic foundational literacy skills. It lacks expertise that will be required by employers in the future. This essentially means that traditional education system alone is not sufficient to create employable workforce.

Parents need to find a way to narrow the skills gaps that exist and prepare the kids to be ready for the future of work.
According to World Economic Forum, 65% of children entering grade school will work in jobs that do not exist today.  
 “The World Economic Forum identified the deeper learning competencies and character traits called 21st Century Skills that they believed is crucial and indispensable.”
3D Printing, Artificial Intelligence, Virtual Reality, Augmented Reality, Robotics, Automation and many new technologies are already present in our daily lives.
The technology-driven world in which we live is a world filled with promise but also challenges. Cars that drive themselves, machines that read X-rays, and algorithms that respond to customer-service inquiries are all manifestations of powerful new forms of automation. Yet even as these technologies increase productivity and improve our lives, their use will substitute for some work activities humans currently perform. The results reveal a rich mosaic of potential shifts in occupations in the years ahead, with important implications for workforce skills and wages. Our key finding is that while there may be enough work to maintain full employment to 2030 under most scenarios, the transitions will be very challenging &#8211; McKinsey Global Institute.

It is essential to prepare children for the technological disruption and equip them with the 21st Century Skills and Competencies so they can realize their potential and stay relevant in the future of work.
