Companies are expanding across markets faster than ever, supply chains are becoming increasingly complex and likewise, changes driven by AI adoption and evolving consumer behaviour.

The “skills vs degrees” debate has been making its rounds for a while now. On one hand, you have the argument that employers care more about what you can do. On the other, there is still a clear expectation for formal qualifications especially in more structured industries.

It is no secret that the job market is competitive and increasingly borderless. For students and mid-career professionals, choosing degrees based on location alone is not enough.
