@CareersInsider @TechInsider @Arkhram1x @JennyPowersBK Let’s remember for a balanced view that the reality is we only see the 0.0001% of successful pro gamers. Also the conditions of work need to be reported on for a fair and balanced view of this or any potential career.

I'm a Fortnite gamer who's won over $646,000 in two years since going pro. I average about 10 hours of gaming daily. (featuring @Arkhram1x, by @JennyPowersBK) businessinsider.com/17-year-old-pr…

@tesfenews @PearsonEdexcel Not sure we agree - with the lower numbers at GCSE studying computer Science these T Levels need to be a focal point to increase numbers - we are crying out for trained people in industry and demand is far outstripping supply in every region of U.K.

@DigitalJersey @JerseyITGuy @DanielRowles Thank you for the call out - brilliant podcast to debate the future of education. What do you think will persist post vaccine? Interesting debate and opportunity for Jersey to take global lead

The Handforth Parish Council Zoom Meeting but it’s performed by an Indie band

It was great to speak to Cate from @OliverWyman and @Gavurin about delivering insights to businesses in yesterday’s Data to Decision webinar.

Retraining is important if we want the skills gap to become smaller. In The Work Foundation’s recent research, they found more than 7.5 million mid-career workers have not received any training since leaving full time education. When was that last time you received training?

Do you think the pandemic has permanently changed the #UKJobMarket?

Since the start of #lockdown in March last year, the UK has been hit with rising unemployment figures and extensive changes to how we work across almost every industry. We may be waiting a long time to return to a pre-coronavirus normal.

Following the report we produced with labour market specialists @GeekTalent we've put together a series of blogs looking at different sectors of Jersey’s economy. Check out our latest blog on the construction industry & impact on technology advances here: digital.je/news-events/di…

@stephenbhull @Gavurin @dynamonortheast can we both make more exciting bar/column charts like this and discuss on our next data webinar?

Bit of spare time on my hands today so I audited the unopened Quality Street tin. Just 4 purples (4.7%) and yet a massive 11 (12.9%) orange ones. Another blow for 2020. Who do I complain to? #inequalitystreet

@prateekbuch @NLC_HQ Please get them a PowerPoint clicker and bigger screen to accommodate charts Axis :-)

This is fantastic news ... but let’s not break the Champagne out just yet ... remember the same chap promised us a world beating Test & Trace system (amongst a string of other things) and look what happened there 🤨
