Our Christmas Wish for a Brighter and Inclusive Digital Future (Powered by SFIA)

Diversity, equity, and inclusion " aren't just buzzwords on SkillsTX's holiday wishlist. This year, we dream of a digital future powered by SFIA, where everyone's skills shine bright!

As the magic of the holidays fills the air, we can't help but get excited about the potential of the digital future – a future brimming with diverse voices, equitable opportunities, and the inclusive power of skilled talent.

This year, our holiday wish isn't just for presents under the tree (though who doesn't love a good gadget!) but for something that can truly transform the world: the global adoption of Skills Framework for the Information Age (SFIA) from the non-profit SFIA Foundation .

Why SFIA?

Simply put, SFIA is the Rosetta Stone of digital and professional skills. It provides a universally understood language for talent, skills, and competencies in the digital age. Imagine a world where everyone - from recruiters to hiring managers, educators to learners - speaks the same language about skills! A world where diverse talent can confidently showcase their abilities, regardless of their background or location, and find opportunities that fit them perfectly.

SFIA for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion:

By breaking down skill requirements into clear, objective units, SFIA removes unconscious bias and creates a level playing field for everyone. It empowers individuals, especially those from underrepresented groups, to identify their strengths, build their skills, and confidently pursue their career dreams.

Our Call to Action:

This holiday season, let's join forces to make SFIA a global reality. Let's spread the word, advocate for its adoption, and build a digital workforce that reflects the vibrant tapestry of humanity.

Together, we can make the digital future a place where everyone has the opportunity to shine, regardless of their background or story. Let's make SFIA the gift that keeps on giving, year after year!

From the bottom of our hearts, we wish you a joy-filled holiday season and a future empowered by skills, diversity, and the brilliance of humanity!
