宾夕法尼亚州费城, 2025年2月12日 - (亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com) - 一份新的 CGFNS International 报告显示，2024 年进入美国的护士移民年增长率保持稳健，因医疗系统继续依赖受过国外教育的护士来缓解持续的人手短缺问题。 然而，该组织在其《2024 年护士移民报告》中指出，在签证积压持续、护士就业类绿卡配额受限的情况下，加之特朗普政府正在实施的新移民政策可能进一步影响签证的可用性和审批时间，目前的高移民率可能难以持续。 CGFNS 是一家全球卫生人力资源非营利组织，为移民当局和州执照委员会核实医疗专业人员的资质。该机构报告称，在 2024 财年，其 VisaScreen® (VS) 服务共收到 24,733 份申请。尽管这一数字比 2023 财年下降 4.6%，但 CGFNS 指出，申请数量仍明显高于疫情前水平，2024 年的申请量比 2018 财年高出近 200%。 报告中的其他关键数据如下：尽管 2024 年 VS 认证发放给了来自 100 多个国家的护士，但其中 92% 来自排名前十的国家。 菲律宾仍占 VS 认证的最大比例，超过 51%，其次是加拿大，占 8%，肯尼亚占 6.5%。近期这一分布略有变化，菲律宾的占比从去年的 60% 下降，而肯尼亚、尼日利亚和加纳的占比均显著增长。 与护士受教育国家的集中趋势类似，签证类别也高度集中。其中，76% 的 VS 认证发放给寻求永久绿卡（如 EB-3 签证）的人群，而 TN 签证（12%）和 H1-B 签证（11%）则是仅有的其他占比较大的类别。“这些数据证实了外界的观察，即美国医疗系统仍然依赖护士移民来缓解持续的人手短缺问题。如果这一合格护士来源渠道受到干扰，将带来深远影响，包括加剧医疗人力短缺、增加患者护理负担，并加重护士的职业倦怠。” CGFNS 总裁兼首席执行官 Peter Preziosi 博士表示， “这是一个涉及多层面的全球性挑战，需要护士输出国和接收国之间开展协作，寻求创新解决方案。” CGFNS International 已获得美国国土安全部批准，可为九类受过国外教育的医疗专业人员提供职业签证的联邦资质审核服务。 为提供全球背景数据，该报告还分析了全球护士及医疗专业人员的迁移趋势，尤其是在各护士来源国和目的地国家如何平衡对熟练医疗人员的需求与本国医疗人力留存挑战方面。报告指出，部分非洲国家（包括津巴布韦和加纳）已暂停发放护士移民所需的相关证书，而尼日利亚则引入了境内服务要求，要求护士在移民前完成一定的国内服务期限。其他国家（如纳米比亚）则采取了提供激励措施的方式，以鼓励护士选择留在本国工作。 下载2024 年护士移民报告：在变化的移民流动中平衡持续的人力需求。联系信息David St. John dstjohn@cgfns.org来源: CGFNS International Copyright 2025 亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com.

SINGAPORE, Feb 12, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - foundit (formerly Monster APAC & ME), a leading jobs and talent platform, has released the annual foundit Insights Tracker (fit) report, offering comprehensive insights into hiring trends across Malaysia, Singapore, and the Philippines. This in-depth analysis sheds light on the evolving employment landscapes in these dynamic Southeast Asian economies.The tracker analyses labour market trends in Malaysia, Singapore, and the Philippines, offering key insights into hiring dynamics across these job markets. A closer look at the hiring trends shows that the Philippines recorded a robust 20% YoY growth in hiring primarily driven by its expansion of retail, logistics, and BPO sectors. Malaysia also experienced a 10% rise in hiring activities, while Singapore saw an 11% drop, reflecting a slowdown, especially in industries like IT and BFSI.Commenting on these findings, V Suresh, CEO of foundit, said, “The evolving employment landscape across Southeast Asia is shaped by key factors such as digital adoption, workplace dynamics, and shifting compensation strategies. Malaysia has leveraged its digital momentum, particularly in retail and hospitality, to drive substantial hiring growth. Similarly, the Philippines has capitalised on consumer demand to expand its retail sector. Meanwhile, in Singapore, technology and efficiency are redefining industry roles. Overall, businesses that strike a balance between technology-driven strategies and employee well-being will be best positioned to navigate these shifts and sustain long-term growth."Malaysia recorded the highest YoY growth in Retail hiring at 85%, followed by the Philippines at 75%, where growth was driven by rapid expansion of retail outlets and rising middle-class consumption. Meanwhile, Singapore's retail industry experienced a 9% YoY decline in hiring activities, which reflects the maturity of its online shopping business.A sector-specific analysis showed that substantial investments, visa-free policies and spending on digital advertising across borders made by the Malaysian government led to the 42% YoY growth in hiring in the hospitality sector. Meanwhile, growing infrastructural investments, rising tourism, and the use of smart hospitality technology like digital booking systems enabled the Philippines to achieve a notable 30% growth.Singapore's hospitality industry saw a 15% decline in recruitment annually, reflecting a slowdown in workforce demand within the sector. This low performance might be attributed to limited promotional initiatives, tighter visa norms and technological shifts such as jobs being outsourced to artificial intelligence (AI) and automation.Functional outlook analysis across sectors indicated that Malaysia saw a 25% annual increase in roles across Software, Hardware, and Telecom. This resilience reflects the high demand for experts in AI, machine learning, and cloud computing, aligning with the global digitalisation trend as companies place a higher priority on technology for long-term growth and sustainability. In contrast, Singapore experienced a sharp 45% decline in tech roles, and Philippines faced challenges at -8% YoY.Hiring activity in the Marketing & Communications industry saw an upward annual trend in both the Philippines and Malaysia, reaching 43% and 36%, respectively. Digital campaigns, the growth of social media, SEO & SEM, and expanding e-commerce technology have propelled this surge. In contrast, Singapore's Marketing & Communications sector faced a 9% decline in hiring demand, primarily due to reduced budgets for traditional marketing roles.A notable shift was observed in HR & Administration roles, with the Philippines experiencing remarkable growth of 47% over the last year. This was driven by the expansion of industries such as Retail, Outsourcing, and Infrastructure sectors, as companies prioritised scaling their HR functions to manage workforce growth, streamline operations, and enhance employee engagement. At the same time, HR roles in Malaysia grew by 28%, while Singapore saw a 12% decline, most likely due to organisations in the country shifting towards automation and outsourcing of administrative functions to optimise costs.About foundit Insights TrackerThe foundit Insights Tracker (fit) offers a detailed perspective on hiring patterns in Malaysia, Singapore, and the Philippines, focusing on the demand for specific skills, available positions, and salary ranges in the market. This analysis provides essential insights for job seekers and employers navigating the evolving employment landscape.Period for the ReportThe period considered for the foundit Insights Tracker (fit) data is December 2023 vs. December 2024, offering a comprehensive view of hiring trends in these key Asian markets.About foundit - APAC & Middle Eastfoundit, formerly Monster (APAC & ME) is Asia’s leading jobs & talent platform offering comprehensive employment solutions to recruiters and job seekers across APAC & ME.

PHILADELPHIA, PA, Feb 12, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - A new CGFNS International report indicates that a robust annual rate of nurse migration into the United States held steady in 2024 as healthcare systems continued to look to foreign-educated nurses to help address persistent staffing shortages.However, in its 2024 Nurse Migration Report, the organization also said the current high rates were likely unsustainable amid persisting visa retrogression and caps on employment-based green cards for nurses, along with new immigration policies being implemented by the Trump Administration that will likely have further impact on visa availability and processing times.CGFNS, a global health workforce non-profit that verifies credentials of healthcare professionals for immigration authorities and state licensing boards, reported that in fiscal year 2024 it received 24,733 applications for its VisaScreen® (VS) service. While this is a 4.6% drop from FY 2023, the organization noted application levels remain significantly higher than pre-pandemic figures, with the 2024 figure at nearly 200% above FY 2018.Other key data from the report:While VS certifications went to nurses from more than 100 countries in 2024, 92% were educated in one of the top 10 countries on the list.The Philippines continued to account for more than 51% of VS certificates, followed by Canada with 8% and Kenya with 6.5%. There has been a slight shift in this distribution recently, with the Philippines dropping from 60% of the total last year, while Kenya, Nigeria, and Ghana have all showed considerable growth in their share.Like countries of education, visa categories are also significantly concentrated, with 76% of VS certificates issued to those seeking permanent green cards (such as EB-3 visas), while TN (12%) and H1-B (11%) made up the only other significant categories."These figures confirm what others are seeing, that U.S. healthcare systems continue to depend on nurse immigrants to address persistent staffing shortages. Disruptions to this pipeline of qualified nurses would have far-reaching consequences, exacerbating workforce shortages, increasing patient care loads, and worsening nurse burnout," said Dr. Peter Preziosi, President and CEO of CGFNS. "This is a multilayered global challenge that demands collaborative and innovative solutions among source and receiving countries."CGFNS International is approved by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security to satisfy federal credential screening requirements for occupational visas for nine categories of foreign-educated healthcare professionals.To offer global context for the U.S. numbers, the report also analyzes worldwide migration of nurses and healthcare professionals, particularly as both source and destination countries continue to grapple with balancing the demand for skilled healthcare workers against the challenges of retaining their domestic workforces. It noted that some countries in Africa, including Zimbabwe and Ghana, have paused the release of certificates that are needed by nurses to emigrate, while Nigeria has introduced in-country service requirements that nurses must fulfill prior to migration. Other governments, such as Namibia, have pursued the pathway of creating incentives for nurses who choose to stay.Download the 2024 Nurse Migration Report: Balancing sustained workforce demand amid shifting migration flows.Contact InformationDavid St. Johndstjohn@cgfns.orgSOURCE: CGFNS International Copyright 2025 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

WILMINGTON, DE, Feb 12, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Naoris Protocol, pioneers of Decentralized CyberSecurity, launched their highly anticipated Post-Quantum DePIN Testnet, recording over 2.5 million transactions in the first week. This represents an important step towards a decentralized cybersecurity future, empowering users to secure, earn through a transformative community based security model.Digital infrastructure is increasingly exposed, with centralized cybersecurity systems failing against sophisticated cyber threats and emerging quantum computing risks. Naoris Protocol’s Decentralized Proof of Security (dPoSec) blockchain with fully integrated Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) and Decentralized SWARM AI, introduces a new era of trustless, distributed security validation online.The integration and alignment with Post-Quantum Cryptographic Standards, including NIST PQC, NATO NCIA, and ETSI agencies, ensures that Naoris Protocol’s dPoSec blockchain is resistant to both classical and quantum cyber threats.In just one week since launch on January 31, 2025, Naoris Protocol’s Testnet has shattered expectations:524,000 Naoris Wallets installed210,000 Browser Security Nodes deployed17M+ cyber threats mitigated by dPoSec2.6M Post-Quantum transactions processedThe Naoris dPoSec blockchain is standing up to massive volumes of post-quantum transactions, proving its quantum-safe architecture can neutralize future cyber threats today. See a post-quantum key in action: here“Our vision is to create a cybersecurity framework that becomes stronger as it grows,” said David Carvalho, CEO & Founder of Naoris Protocol. “The overwhelming response to our DePIN Testnet underscores the need for decentralized cybersecurity solutions that eliminate single points of failure and build collective resilience across Web2 and Web3.”The continual failure of centralized cybersecurity was perfectly highlighted with the CrowdStrike outage of July 2024, which crippled global systems. Naoris Protocol’s DePIN approach removes such vulnerabilities by distributing security validation across a decentralized mesh of devices, protecting against breaches and malpractice.“Centralized security models are obsolete,” said David Holtzman, Chief Strategy Officer of Naoris Protocol. “Naoris Protocol ensures that security is continuously validated by the network itself, reducing risk and increasing trust in the digital ecosystem.”Following the Post-Quantum DePIN Testnet launch, Naoris Protocol will also introduce:- Expanded Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) implementations across a range of decentralized applications that safeguard against quantum-era threats.- Cross-chain interoperability, enabling PQC security across multiple blockchain infrastructures.- Integration with enterprise cybersecurity solutions, securing critical Web2 & Web3 ecosystems.With the DePIN sector expected to reach $3.5 trillion by 2028, Naoris Protocol is positioning itself as the backbone of security and trust for all Web2 & Web3 infrastructures across cloud computing, data storage, and IoT security.By participating, users not only protect their digital environments but also actively contributing to the creation of a decentralized cybersecurity mesh network, designed to secure the digital world—devices, applications, APIs, and systems—across critical infrastructure, enterprises, governments, and key sectors like finance, defense, healthcare, and Web3. Use cases here.How the DePIN Testnet works:Users can now install the Naoris Wallet and operate a Browser Security Node, an advanced cybersecurity tool that will:- Transforms devices into security validator nodes, providing real-time threat detection and prevention.- Blocks ads, trackers, phishing attempts, malware and insecure connections.- Rewards users for their participation in a DePIN community compute model.- Creates a self-reinforcing ‘Security Hive Mind,’ where all nodes collaborate to mitigate threats.Join the Post-Quantum DePIN Testnet, visit https://naorisprotocol.network/testnet For more information, visit https://www.naorisprotocol.com/ Check out our White PapersNaoris Protocol is available for investment, interviews and technical demonstrations of their groundbreaking Post-Quantum DePIN solution for Web3 & Web2Contacts: Guy Davies / CMO guy@naoris.comLucas Bonnard / Investment lucas.b@naoris.com Copyright 2025 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.
