[MTC Global] Bridging the gap--Nano Degree

​​As the "Internet of Things" moves towards the Internet of Everything, the evolution in technology is creating a dearth of technical skills. In a recent report by the McKinsey Global institute, it was stated that by 2018 the US alone might face a 50%-60% gap between the supply and demand of people with an advanced training in data analysis, statistics and machine learning.

As the need for specialists in the fields of data mining, cognitive computing, web based services and content curation begin to increase, the public sector is now entering the field of education by providing short courses in the form of nano-degrees.

The leader in this domain is Udacity, which has provided nano-degrees in web development, iOS development and data analysis.

The advantage of nano-degrees is their focalised nature. Rather than going through an entire course, these degrees focus on a core module and offer a learning style that is extremely collaborative and adapted to the current workplace.

Students are given a real-time project which they all need to complete by performing multiple tasks. At the end, the tasks are amalgamated with the aid of the course guide, thus leading to the end of the project and the reception of a qualification certificate.
