The increasing cost of campus-based education may cause those who attend university in the future to be a select few, but online education has the potential to remove these barriers to education. This in turn can ensure people become more desirable to employers. It is not only investors that need to keep on top of changes in skill sets required by an economic industry that is becoming more technology-driven. Students considering university or vocational courses should seriously consider taking courses that will make them look more appealing in an uncertain economy — whether a university course in computer science, or weekend basics in Microsoft Office applications. Failing that, consider taking a free online option and study in your own time. After all, it’s “something to put on the resumé”.
