Differences between 2020 skills and 2025 skills

There are many similarities between 2020 and 2025 when considering 2020 and 2025 skills but some changes have taken place. That is, some of the facts that existed 2020 in 2020 have been removed in 2025.

Following are the facts that were removed in 2025, even though 2020 existed,

·         Attention to detail, trustworthiness

·         Coordination and time management

 

The reason for removing the above is that people today are very inquisitive about anything and many people make sure not to break someone else’s trust. So the following points are removed in 2025 skills.

 

But two new things have been added to the 2025 skills list, the facts are as followers,

·         Resilience, stress tolerance, and flexibility

·         Technology design and programming

 

Resilience, stress tolerance, and flexibility are added 2025 skills list because now many people have less endurance and some have less ability to deal with others. So that resilience, stress tolerance, and flexibility point added to the list of skills in 2025.

Technology design and programming are added 2025 skills list because today's society is technologically advanced but society has not yet directed it to the right things. Therefore, this point has been made to improve the technical sector.

But there is not much difference when comparing the 2020 and 2025 skills list and this means that the society is still not as developed as we think.
