Is Facebook dying?

Facebook的出現，曾經顛覆全球年輕人的上網和交友模式，如今卻似乎變成「長輩」專屬的社交平台。根據Facebook的數字，全港每月約有500 – 600萬個活躍用家，當中18-24歲用家卻不足兩成。年輕人的新寵是Instagram，全球用戶當中接近七成為35歲以下。

 

市場瞬息萬變，除了新的社交平台湧現，資訊科技也日新月異。要時刻裝備自己，才能緊貼市場脈博，以新思維迎接新機遇。由2019年4月1日起，持續進修基金（CEF）個人資助上限已增至港幣2萬元，申請年齡亦提高至70歲。是時候踏出第一步，好好利用基金資助，自我增值。

 

The emergence of Facebook, which once subverted the online and dating models of young people around the world, now seems to have become the exclusive social platform for “elders”. According to Facebook’s figures, there are about 5 million-6 million active users per month in Hong Kong, but today less than 20% of them are aged 18-24. The new favourite of young people is Instagram, and nearly 70% of its global users are under 35.

 

The market especially in information technology is constantly changing, and you need to equip yourself to meet the new challenges and take advantage of the opportunities.

 

Starting from 1 April 2019, the Continuing Education Fund (CEF) personal subsidy ceiling has been increased to HK$20,000 and the age limit raised to 70. So why not embrace this opportunity and take the first step to improving yourself, by utilising the Fund.
