What is Labor Market

The Covid-19 pandemic has led to a digital transformation in global higher education because universities were forced to close, and higher education students faced interrupted education processes. Currently, online learning in higher education is a new phenomenon, and the pandemic has highlighted the importance of digital skills for higher education students for both new distance teaching and learning methods and the new labor market. The longer universities remain closed, the more higher education students will lose their future, resulting in a permanent loss of digital skills for the post-pandemic world. Accordingly, this study presents the current situation of higher education students relative to the pre-pandemic period and offers recommendations about the importance of equipping them with digital skills. In this context, this study overviews the level of digital skills of higher education students by synthesizing and comparing current data from reliable international institutions and provides an overall assessment.
