This podcast highlights a concerning gap between the growing need for workplace upskilling and the decline of corporate training budgets. Recent data suggests that employer-funded education has hit a decade-long low, even as the rise of artificial intelligence threatens to displace mid-career professionals.

To address this mismatch, the agency Comsteria is offering a series of accessible summer webinars focused on practical digital skills like video production and podcasting. These sessions are designed to be affordable and personal, providing an alternative for individuals who may not receive traditional training from their employers.

Ultimately, the podcast emphasises the importance of proactive self-investment to remain competitive in a rapidly changing labour market. Find out more at www.comsteria.co.uk/summer
