FUTUREPROOF CAREERS
The Futureproof Careers framework is a set of skills and character qualities that will always be needed and valued in the workplace. Futureproof Careers was developed by the Jaffa Foundation and comprises three elements:
Portable Skills
Portable skills have value across industry boundaries and enable young people play to their strengths.
Character Strong
Character Strong means doing the right thing and the thing that’s needed when it’s hard. For example, taking responsibility for results.
Build Assets
Assets are important in all sectors of the economy. Financial knowledge is a key skill for the future.
