In today's world, upskilling is the most essential part of the growth of our lives. With the recession that's approaching at a faster speed and inflation on the other end, to catch up and balance these we must update ourselves with the latest technologies and skills.
Here are some skills that are highly recommended and the best part is there are huge job openings on a regular basis for these skill-based roles.
So without delay let's look into the highly demanded skills in 2022.
Let's begin with the most popular and high-earning skill.
Writing {Content & Copywriting}
DESIGNING:
Designing is one of the topmost highly demanded courses. Be it Canva Designing, Graphic Designing, or UI/UX Designing. Each of them is equally popular and I see a lot of organizations looking to hire Designers.
Trust me the demand for Designers is like never before.
Canva is my forever favorite app and I cannot imagine my work without the help of Canva. It's the easiest and most user-friendly app.
One can create beautiful designs without any design knowledge. It simply works like a drop and drag.
The Best part is we can use it for FREE. Of course, if you want you can buy paid plans which certainly have extra features.

Now let's see what Graphic designing is!! Graphic design is visually expressing our ideas. Communicating our message in the most effective way possible and making it attractive to the audience.
Now let's see what is UI & UX designing. But first, let's understand the terms UI & UX. UI Design means User Interface design whereas UX Design means User Experience Design.
Both UI & UX are crucial and work closely together. But you have to understand that these two are different.
UI Design is nothing but designing the product with a user-centered approach. Here they design the look of the website or app user interface.
The interface is nothing but the graphical layout of the application which should not only be visually appealing. It must be easy to use and functional.
Whereas UX design aims at the experience or interaction of the user with the product.
Steve Jobs once said this way: "You've got to start with the customer experience and work backwards to the technology - not the other way around".
So focus on learning to Design. There is only one way to do it. Try. Bring your creativity. Practice. Gain knowledge and experience. I hope you're planning to learn this course.
Now let's see the next one.
VIDEO EDITING:
The demand for Video Editors is just next level. I mean I can't tell you how many job openings I see daily for this particular role.
Video content is now everywhere. Every business and individual wants to create more video content to meet the trend and share them on social platforms. Hence the demand for video editors is high.
Thanks to Instagram Reels and TikTok.
Apart from short-form videos, people are looking for editing their YouTube videos, and wedding videos. So make the best out of this when it's high in demand.

The Best part is it is HIGH-PAYING. Also, you don't need any qualifications for this. So if you are thinking to learn 1 skill, I suggest you start with this. The more skilled you're the higher you get paid.
Some of the best resources to learn are YouTube, Skillshare, Udemy, and Adobe learning tutorials.
You can start editing even from your phone. Yes, it's possible. There are several apps available now in our play store, so download one of them and apply your skill.
Some of the best and most popular apps are Inshot, Kine, Filmora, iMovie, Adobe Premier Pro, and Final Cut Pro.

If you want to stay longer in the market and create a presence for your brand you need to go beyond this.
Along with sharing our content on social media platforms, we need to connect and engage with the audience and build relationships with them.

AI is a branch of computer science. AI is used for building machines that work similarly to human intelligence to perform tasks. Most companies are investing high in this.

Let's first understand what is Cryptocurrency and Blockchain before we talk more about them.
Cryptocurrency is a medium of exchange. Bitcoin is a cryptocurrency. Crypto assets are classified into Cryptocurrency, crypto commodities, and Crypto tokens.

A Blockchain is a shared or decentralized ledger that eases the process of recording transactions in a business network.
Blockchain technology allows a person to send money safely to another person without going through a bank or financial institution.

Blockchain is one of the best technologies as the information passed through it is transparent and can be accessed only by those that are permitted to view it.

Data Science helps in analyzing data and extracting, meaningful insights from it by combining statistics, mathematics, programming skills and subject knowledge.
It mostly focuses on data analytics, data visualization, and statistics.
Almost every company these days is realizing the importance of Data Science. It helps organizations discover new patterns that have the potential to transform their look and reduce the cost of resource management. It also helps in bringing more profits to the organization.
