Let’s find out together which will be the most in demand digital jobs in the coming years.

If you think this is the job for you, we recommend reading our article
“Studying Digital Marketing in Milan” where you can find many solutions and choose the most suitable for you to take this path. On the other hand, if you are looking for an online course, we recommend Digital Coach, Start2impact, and Ninja Academy.
Data Scientist
Have you ever heard of data science? It is the field of applying advanced analytics techniques and scientific principles to extract valuable information from data for business decision-making, strategic planning and other uses. Data science combines principles of mathematics, statistics, artificial intelligence and computer engineering to analyze large amounts of data. So if you have genius for data science, we recommend you to continue reading and evaluate this type of course of study.
It is well known by now that for companies, data is gold, crucial for making decisions, understanding the performance of their business and studying user behavior. For this reason, the data scientist is among the figures that in recent years is emerging more and more rapidly and is increasingly in demand in the world of work.
But where to study this new science? Among the many options we recommend some online academies such as Start2impact and Neural Academy, while if you prefer in-person classes in Milan Boolean and Sole24ore are the ideal alternatives.
Web Developer
The web developer is certainly not a professional figure that was born recently or has been in the market for only a few years, but in spite of this, it remains one of the most in-demand and sought-after.
He can specialize in website, app or software development and is divided into two types:
- front-end developer
- back-end developer
The first deals with the visible side of a site; it implements the design of a web page through languages such as CSS, HTML and JavaScript and codes all the elements that the user sees and interacts with. The second deals with server-side coding and operates behind the scenes of a web page using languages such as PHP, Python, Java, .Net, C#, C++ and Ruby. A third option is that of the full-stack developer, the one who manages the all-around web, both the front and back end.
Among the best institutes in Milan in which to study web development we recommend Boolean and Digitazon Tech School, while online alternatives include Accademiacode, Epicode and Start2impact.
UX/UI Designer
Before entrusting the work of developing a site or app to a web developer, a preliminary phase of study and ideation of the project is necessary. And this is precisely where the figures of User Interface and User Experience Designer come in.
It is good to make a distinction between the two figures from the outset. The UI designer is basically in charge of physically designing the user interfaces of a product, so he or she is dedicated to the visual and aesthetic part, while the UX designer works out its structure and the experience that the user will have while using a product.
Here, too, we recommend some good courses, including online ones from E-commerce School, Sinervis Academy, Start2impact, and in-person ones in Milan (exclusively about UX Experience) from IED and Talent Garden.
Blockchain Manager e Developer
The blockchain, is a shared, immutable ledger that facilitates the process of recording transactions and tracking assets in a commercial network. It can be defined as a digital ledger of data and transactions, an encrypted, decentralized and distributed database in which information is grouped into subordinate blocks. Anything of value can be tracked and traded on a blockchain network, thus reducing risk and cost for all concerned.
But so, what is the Blockchain Manager all about? Basically he or she is that professional who is given responsibility for the team to develop Blockchain-based systems based on the budget made available by the company
On the other hand, the Blockchain Developer is an experienced developer who uses the Blockchain to support the technical team and, in general, the company’s business.
If you are interested in this path, we recommend courses from Bureau Veritas and Start2impact.
Cyber Security Specialist
With the advent of technology, much of the work and activities carried out by people takes place online, via computers, tablets or smartphones. This increasingly carrie the risk of cyber crimes, such as online theft and scams, endangering users’ sensitive data: biographical, health, banking, private files, etc…
This is where the cyber security expert comes in, whose role is to strengthen the security systems of companies where this data is collected and stored in order to protect users.
If you are interested in this type of profession, we recommend online courses from Click-Academy, Lawpilots, MUSA and ICT Learning Solutions.
Machine Learning Specialist
Machine Learning is a form of Artificial Intelligence that makes predictions from data. It is based on the idea that systems developed by the practitioner can learn from data, identify patterns autonomously, and make decisions without constant human intervention.
The Machine Learning Specialist, therefore, is a figure that has and will have increasing employment opportunities in the coming years, especially on behalf of technologically advanced companies. We point out Start2impact‘s online course.
Conclusions
As you could see, jobs are changing. This doesn’t mean that there will no longer be a need for lawyers, doctors or teachers, but that with the advent of digital, a lot of new professions have been born (and will be born) that are currently in high demand in the market and will be more and more in demand as technology continues to develop.
