With the increasing demand for computer coaching, retraining, and worker’s compensation disputes, we at Computer Coach Australia are slowly expanding our team so we reach and help more people. Everyone has different needs and require a different approach, whatever they hope to accomplish. For example older people and NDIS participants need a more personal approach than younger learners. We also provide return to work skills training and business support.

Even regardless of the background, everyone has unique strengths and weakness in learning. Due to this, it’s essential to find a best approach for every client and make them feel comfortable. We offer a range of services that can fit any style of coaching preference you can have! During the lockdown, and for those that prefer to learn from their homes, there is one-on-one online coaching. This method can be great if you often need help with smaller tasks as well. Having someone available at any time to answer program-specific questions can be a huge help whatever your goals are. One-on-one coaching is also useful if you aren’t available at regular hours, so you need someone to adapt to your schedule.

Indoor and online Computer Coaching

Some of our coaches specialise in remote training while others can help with a more direct approach. Now during Covid, they respect the safety procedures when it comes to in-house coaching, and do everything in their power to minimise the risk. If you prefer training at your home or your office, our new team member Rabin might be a perfect fit!

Rabin is our new computer coach in Perth, WA, and is studying Mechatronic Engineering and Computer Science at Curtin University. Despite his ongoing studies, Rabin has over 13 years of experience with using Microsoft Office and Apple application. He specialises in software and coaching people on how to use it for various purposes. Whether you need help with setting up a website for your personal business, or learning your way around social networks to keep in touch with friends and family, we can help you learn in a comfortable environment.

Rabin along with all our coaches are very patient and thorough while working with clients. You can learn more about them and see our customer testimonials here. In short, if you’re in need of face to face computer coaching in the Perth area, Rabin can provide you with specialised guidance right at your home! For remote learning and worker compensation issues, we also offer coaching programs and advice, so feel free to give us a call.

Teaching Clients with individual needs

All our computer coaches are training to adequately approach coaching clients with individual needs. Many often ignore this aspect of training despite people requiring a more personalised approach than any other. Our founder, Zoe Campbell, was a TAFE teacher for 20 years working with people with disabilities or with learning problems. She was helping long term unemployed people retrain to be workers, both the English second language and Aboriginal Australians.

Through these experiences, Zoe learned how people with these unique needs need to be taught and that is primarily through one-on-one coaching. A regular class will rarely work in these cases as everyone has their own level of understanding. Therefore, we need to start at their level and design a program around their needs and goals. We try to determine what it is they want to learn, and what is the best approach according to their needs and experiences. For older people and NDIS recipients, business owners, or employees – Rabin can visit you at home for a personal coaching session. We can accommodate any kind of session you require so don’t let your disability discourage you from learning. Computer and internet skills can be extremely beneficial for anyone who has difficulties from lack of skills training. It opens up a huge number of possibilities and removes many barriers from everyday life.

We can work with you face to face (depending on your location) or online. Many of our clients with find working on line suits them and transitioned across with the lockdowns etc.

The reshaping of the workplace has far-reaching implications for workforce development. According to the Future of Jobs Report 2020 by the World Economic Forum (WEF), 85 million jobs might be disturbed by a shift in the division of labor between humans and machines by 2025. While this may seem concerning, the report also predicts that 97 million new jobs might emerge that fit the new labor division between humans and machines.

John O’Mahony, Partner at Deloitte Access Economics, forecast that investing in the workforce will deliver strong returns. The most notable benefit is the economic growth that will continue for many years.

“The time to act on workforce development is now and, as the research shows, an imperative first step is ensuring Australia’s workforce is equipped with a basic level of digital literacy through effective skills development and training programs,” said O’Mahony.

The research found that one-third of respondents felt their job requirements had changed and one in four reported that they didn’t have the skills they needed to complete their day-to-day job. One-quarter of the surveyees claim their data analysis skills are not at the adequate level that their employers are requiring.

The Fourth Industrial Revolution

The COVID-19 global pandemic is still changing how the world works and demonstrating the limitations of many existing systems. It’s highlighting the need to reimagine the role of information technology as a trigger for economic productivity and growth. In attempting to contain the virus, countries are establishing mobility restrictions and lockdowns, which are disrupting the flow of society and the economy. This disruption has transformed the ways in which communities, businesses and individuals operate, communicate and transfer knowledge.

The emergence of the fourth industrial revolution (4IR) is being accelerated by the measures and solutions governments and organisations are adopting in their efforts to maintain business and operational continuity. The opportunities 4IR presents are far-reaching. Post-pandemic organisations and businesses that hope to take advantage of 4IR will need to rethink their approach to leveraging technology.

In preparing for 4IR, they will have to reposition technology as a critical component for each sphere of specialisation. Namely, it necessitates learning the relevant digital skills to become creators and users of these tools. This is something we at Computer Coach Australia can help you with, especially in the Perth area.

Post-Covid Workforce Adaptation

It is imperative that businesses and governments digitise their operations and coordinate their activities. If done properly, this should enable business continuity and build resilience to future crises. Industries such as the media have been less affected by this pandemic than for instance tourism, which faced major issues. Companies in lesser impacted industries are better positioned to continue with business as usual. They can leverage the embedded digital channels and tech solutions as part of customer service and other business operations. In fact, many may claim greater market share once the business climate improves in the post-COVID-19 world.

The steep rise in virtual working platforms enables organisations to ensure that workforces can continue to be productive. This trend has the potential to reduce operating expenses and point toward the future of work. Microsoft Teams, a virtual collaboration tool that enables communication and interaction within organisations and work teams, has seen a 775% increase in use in countries where social distancing and other confinement measures are in place. So too have Zoom and WebEx Meetings. Post-pandemic, organisations and governments will have to consider incorporating technology into their operations if they have not already.

Technology is helping to ease global disruptions across many if not all sectors of the economy. Mobile money technology has helped to reduce the need for physical cash transactions, thereby minimising the spread of the coronavirus. In education, more than a billion students worldwide are studying from their homes. Now roughly three in four students experience disruptions in their learning processes due to the pandemic. Governments and school administrations have adopted e-learning technologies for home-bound students.

The development of digital skills is an important part of building resilience to economic and social shocks like those presented by the COVID-19 outbreak.
