BARCELONA, Spain, March 2, 2023 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --

Huawei announced its "Three Trees" model for talent development at the Mobile

World Congress (MWC) 2023. The three trees refer to teachers and students in

higher education institutions, lifelong learners, and industry practitioners.

The model is Huawei's bid to develop more innovative and applied ICT talent,

facilitating the digital transformation of industries.

Highly skilled ICT professionals are the key to digital transformation. In its

2030 Digital Compass, the EU aims to add 20 million ICT specialists; it also

hopes that at least 80% of all adults will have basic digital skills by 2023.

Meanwhile, the China ICT Talent White Paper highlights the ICT talent gap in

China, which will reach about 21.35 million unfilled positions by 2035.

To address these goals and challenges, Huawei is working with partners in

pursuit of the "Three Trees" Model.

-Academia: Through Huawei ICT academies worldwide, Huawei brings the latest ICT

knowledge and skills directly to teachers and students, facilitating equal

access to quality education.

-Lifelong learning: Huawei is always updating its talent cultivation system and

certification standards to help professionals grow through extended education.

-ICT professionals: With digital talent development services, Huawei aims to

equip leaders with digital management skills and talent with ICT skills, and

create new value together for industries.

Miao Fengchun, Chief of the Unit for Technology and AI in Education at UNESCO,

said that the "Technology-Enabled Open Schools" program by UNESCO and Huawei

has played a pioneering role in helping countries in Africa build digital open

schools. Over 900,000 teachers and 15,000 students in Egypt, Ethiopia, and

Ghana have participated in the program. The program also offers a digital

learning platform and resources, open for all local students.

In the next five years, Huawei hopes to train more than 1 million students each

year through cooperation with colleges and universities. Its programs aim to

cultivate high-quality ICT talent for the future, helping accelerate global

digital transformation.
