For nearly 30 years Adobe has been committed to the idea that developing digital skills will prepare the next generation for the future and prospective employers. Through our creative apps, we’re here to help you empower students to think creatively, develop future-ready skills, and really get their ideas across.
Is creativity a critical skill for the workplace of the future? Turns out, prospective employers think so. Focusing on communication, creativity, collaboration, creative problem solving and critical thinking, we held research into how creative and soft skills are now becoming in-demand across Europe.

The Edit, brought to you by Adobe and Sky - is back for a second year! We are asking young people to take part in a digital storytelling challenge for the chance to win a broadcast of the winning film on a sky channel, plus free Adobe Creative Cloud licences for the school.
This year students can flex their critical thinking muscles on the choice of two real-world issues; Climate Change and Equality, Diversity and Inclusion.
Most students have missed out this year- on time together, trips away, and many other opportunities. Make sure they get this chance to tell a meaningful story, learn new skills and work together to create something they can truly be proud of. Inspire young reporters to speak their truths and share their heroes, building confidence and communication skills as they go.
