Catch up with a conversation exploring how rapid advances in AI are reshaping jobs and skills demand, as well as how tertiary education institutions and governments are responding by integrating AI literacy and related job-relevant skills into their tertiary education. The conversation features experts from the private sector—a global MOOC provider (Coursera), a global interdisciplinary community of leading researchers in AI in Education (IAIED) and the first U.S. university to require AI competency for graduation (Purdue University).

This event was co-sponsored by the World Bank and EdTech Hub’s AI Observatory and Action Lab. This special webinar is made possible by support from UK International Development.
