The use of computers and the Internet in workplaces will become more pervasive and the functions performed using computers will dramatically increase. The influence of technology will go beyond new equipment and faster communications, as work and skills will be redefined and reorganized.
Increased global competition will continue to affect the type of work being done in ALL work-places, creating new high-skilled jobs and lessening demand for low-skilled work. The impact of globalization on everyone will continue to grow as more of the economy is involved in producing exports or competing with imports.

Of course it goes without saying the speed typing should be a skill.
Proper grammar and spell-check in emails and all documents
People should be at least familiar and capable to use basic functions in all microsoft programs with ease
Should be familiar with the use of the internet
Between basic computer skills and advanced technical competency lies the sweet and wide domain of skills in using advanced software applications and complex Internet workflows that provide real value for a range of businesses and markets.
Demand is what drives us to new technology.We should wait and see. This is more like a SCI-FI movie now
