How To Get Into Tech Using The Ada Program

FOR BEGINNERS!!!

INTRODUCTION

Defining Tech

Many of us believe that owning the newest iPhone, spending big sums of money on it, understanding how to power up a computer, sending text messages on cell phones, and having your fridge and microwave connected by Bluetooth are all indications of being tech smart.

The truth is that any of these skills are overrated. Being tech aware basically means having the ability to use technology intelligently. This ability goes well beyond only "knowing" the principles of how technology functions and includes "utilizing" such cutting-edge technologies in order to increase productivity and efficiency.

Importance of being Tech savvy

In today's very competitive work environment, it is crucial to have a strong understanding of technology. For instance, having the necessary web abilities is estimated to increase your employment chances by 25% and, after you land a job, might result in a nearly 10% wage increase.

Defining my audience

This article as might have been envisaged is targeted specially for beginners to Tech, and all those who are considering it one way or the other.

BENEFITS OF GETTING INTO TECH.

As most people would have noticed, this is the digital era, and whether one likes it or not; we are faced with one form of technology, one way or the other in our daily occupations; from the microwave to the phone, etc. One needs to keep up, at least through knowledge, with the fast train of technology – though we are not expected to know every single tech that is churned out – to remain abreast as much as we possibly can.

Two real benefits of being Tech savvy would be:

Improvement of the work-life balance:

If you are technologically skilled, you have the ability to alter the conventional workplace and working hours for yourself. You can demand flexible work schedules and work locations with little to no salary concessions. Your ability to deviate from the norm and still perform better will not only help you manage your work-life balance well, but it will also likely wow your employer.

Enhancement of productivity:

Being tech aware makes you more productive and efficient since you can accomplish more in less time. You can pick teleconferencing or even text messages if there is someone you are unable to reach, rather than spending time out of your hectic schedule to travel and meet with them.
