Technology skills are one of the most powerful forces in our world. They power innovation, expand our creative abilities and equip humans to solve the world’s most critical problems. So it goes without saying: We’re huge fans of tech skills.
That’s why Pluralsight dedicated April 25 to celebrating the limitless potential of tech skills.
