202 has been one hell of a year, and it has thrown turmoil in the air for many people, with many losing jobs and having no prospect of finding a new one in their industry. However, there are plenty of industries which are still doing well, and if you are in Bangkok and out of work, you may wish to consider training for new skills and taking your career in a different direction. Below are some of the available training courses that may interest you and help you to find a new job in 2021.

Communication Skills

Communication skills are vital in our modern lives, not only in our work life but also our personal lives, and you can benefit immensely from a course in communications. When it comes to looking for a communication skill course, Bangkok has several reputable companies offering these, with the option of classroom teaching and fully online courses from which you can choose.

Web Design

Whether you want to get a job as a web designer or wish to be able to build a website for yourself and sell products online, a web design course in Bangkok is an excellent option. As well as there being many full-time positions available for this discipline, there is also plenty of freelance work and remote work, so when you have the necessary skills, finding a job can be a simple task.

Digital Marketing

An industry which works hand in hand with web design, is digital marketing, and there are many different facets to this discipline which may interest you. You can learn about and get qualified in a variety of areas, including:

• SEO – Search Engine Optimisation
• SEM – Search Engine Marketing
• PPC – Pay Per Click
• Social Media Marketing
• Content Marketing & Writing
• Video Creation & Marketing

These are a few of the areas that are covered by digital marketing, and in most cases you would not specialise in them all, instead choosing one or two of the disciplines.

Teaching

There is always a high demand for qualified teachers in Bangkok, and throughout Thailand, so training as a teacher may be an excellent option for you. There are various levels that you can teach at from Kindergarten children, high school kids, university students, adults, and teaching corporate business English. If you have another skill, you can also teach this, so you do not have to be an English Teacher, and it can be a rewarding career.

These are a few of the different courses which you can consider when you are looking to train for a new skill. If none of these are of interest to you, there are plenty more besides these, and you can also consider enrolling for one of the short courses at Chulalongkorn University.
