Next Challenge: What is your idea for bringing more consumers to Cable TV & Video on Demand Services? |
Why is this important? One of the greatest concerns facing our communities is the growing gap between those with access to opportunity and those without.
What are we doing about it? As part of a larger commitment to help increase economic mobility and equitable representation in the workforce, PwC is offering a free digital upskilling curriculum to prepare students of all backgrounds with applied skills for the workforce today and tomorrow.
The Digital Curriculum is part of the “Access Your Potential” initiative to support a more equitable future for Black and Latinx college students to prepare for and begin their careers.
Access Your Potential’s Digital Curriculum is a free 20-hour immersive learning path to digitally upskill students and help bridge academic and technology competencies.

The Curriculum includes three pillars, for each of which learners can receive a distinction of completion.
- Be Digital: “Embrace new mindsets” by learning the concepts of human-centered design, agile ways of working and systems thinking. As technology advances and evolves, businesses are implementing new ways of working and digital transformation is shaping the future of work. Watch demo video here
- Work Digital: “Harness the value of data” through data analytics, data visualization and storytelling, data workflow and automation.
