Background of the Initiative

As we navigate through an era marked by advancements in generative AI technologies like ChatGPT, the necessity for AI skills in the workplace has shifted from 'recommended' to 'essential.' Globally, the focus is moving towards prioritizing AI proficiencies over years of experience in hiring practices. However, Japan is currently facing a significant shortage of AI professionals, with predictions indicating a potential workforce deficit of about 11 million by 2040. This changing landscape demands not just familiarity with AI tools but also practical, results-driven capabilities. Recognizing this urgent need, Digirise has opened its knowledge base from corporate training to individual learners.
