Technology-related professions job market grows to 740% in ten years

According to an unprecedented study produced by the Federation of Commerce of Goods, Services and Tourism of the State of Sao Paulo (FecomercioSP), to evaluate the trajectory of formal employment and the impact of socioeconomic and technological transformations, the labor market of professions related to the area of Technology registered growth of up to 740%, in Brazil, between 2012 and 2022. In contrast, other occupations ^ some linked to administrative, financial and public service activities, for example 80% pointed to a decrease in the number of jobs in the same period.

Despite this potential, the lack of qualified professionals is still a challenge. It is in this scenario that robotics courses have stood out as a solution to empower future generations.

According to Marco Giroto, founder of SuperGeeks, the increased demand for robotics courses reflects a clear need of the market: “We are experiencing a technological transformation that increasingly demands professionals capable of creating and operating innovative solutions.Robotics is not only a technical area, but a set of skills that develops skills such as logic, problem solving and critical thinking.”

These competencies have proven essential to prepare young people for careers of the future. Robotics courses combine practical and theoretical learning, introducing concepts of programming, artificial intelligence, automation and use of tools such as Arduino boards, sensors and 3D modeling platforms.In addition, many specialized schools are adapting their curricula to meet the growing demand for qualified professionals.

Although the forecast for the sector is optimistic, Brazil still faces a significant gap in the training of technology professionals.Brasscom points out that, of the almost 700 thousand expected vacancies by 2025, a large portion may remain open due to the lack of qualified labor. This discrepancy between supply and demand makes robotics courses an essential path for young people and adults interested in standing out in a highly competitive market.

“In addition to filling gaps in the labor market, robotics has the power to inspire students to see new possibilities. Often, they come to the course without imagining how much they can accomplish and leave with projects that transform their own lives and communities”, comments Giroto.

The growth in demand for robotics courses also reflects changes in the understanding of how to prepare the next generations. Educational institutions and companies have invested in basic training, offering courses aimed at children and adolescents. In addition to being a competitive differential, these technical skills arouse interest in areas such as engineering, computer science and artificial intelligence.

“A robotics goes beyond machines, it prepares people for a more connected future full of possibilities.Daily testimony how this technology can not only transform industries, but also open paths to careers that once seemed distant”, says William Adriano de Andrade de Almeida, expert in robot programming and industrial automation.

The benefits of robotics courses go beyond the job market.They also stimulate socio-emotional skills such as creativity, teamwork and the ability to solve complex problems.These skills have been valued not only in technological careers, but in several areas of knowledge.

As technology advances and becomes an integral part of everyday life, robotics courses emerge as a trend that is here to stay. With the forecast of continuous market growth and the urgent need to fill qualified vacancies, the moment is ideal to invest in the training of young talent.

By preparing new generations for an increasingly technological job market, robotics not only meets a professional demand, but also inspires future engineers, programmers and scientists to transform the world with innovation and creativity.

Giroto reinforces: “A robotics is a bridge between the present and the future. By learning programming and automation concepts from an early age, young people develop a solid foundation to meet the challenges of a world in constant transformation”.
