  • Date: 13 December, 2024

Technology offers businesses a world of benefits, from boosting growth to driving innovation. But to truly tap into this potential, having skilled teams is crucial. These teams need the right expertise to maximize technological advancements.  

That’s where Skillsoft Global Knowledge comes in. We focus on equipping team members with reliable, enterprise-grade skills through comprehensive training and resources. For those who want to showcase their expertise, certifications are a great way to then validate and demonstrate these skills.  

Let’s look to cybersecurity as an example. With cyberattacks increasing dramatically, the demand for skilled cybersecurity professionals is skyrocketing. By earning cybersecurity certifications, team members can prove their proficiency in various areas of cybersecurity and their dedication to professional growth – ultimately contributing to business success.  

But first, they need to build critical skills, including:  

  • Managing network security 
  • Securing cloud environments 
  • Deploying firewalls 
  • Preventing and combating cyber threats 

After building these skills, certifications can be a useful tool to validate their abilities in these areas.
