3:35-3:55 PM THE RISE OF THE DESIGN APPRENTICE

Businesses are facing the steepest labor shortages in a generation with over 11 million open jobs in the U.S. One solution: the rise of Design Apprentice programs across public and private sector organizations. This new reskilling and upskilling mechanism is creating more inclusive and equitable pathways to the global workforce by combining kinesthetic and action learning methods in product, service, fashion, sound and user experience design. We’ll explore how the great global reset is shaping a new generation of designers with STEAMD (science, tech, arts, math and design) super powers as a global force for good.

CGI 2024 Annual Meeting

 

Spotlight Session: No One Left Behind: Bridging Digital Divides and Education Inequities

 

Technology enables connection, education, health, and economic growth—but not for everyone. The divide between those who have access to technology and quality education and those who don’t remains a global challenge and has potential to widen further with increasing natural disasters and conflicts, and as advances in AI impact workforces around the globe. Extending access to technology and digital upskilling on the continent of Africa, where a rapidly growing youth population must be able to participate fully in the economy and society, is particularly urgent. This session will explore innovative solutions and strategies for bridging the digital divide and addressing education inequities, especially in underserved communities. Addressing these challenges will require concerted efforts from governments, businesses, non-profit organizations, and communities, so we can all reap the benefits of unlocking technology’s full potential to empower individuals, reduce poverty, promote social inclusion, and foster innovation. Participants Iván Duque Márquez Former President of Colombia Mariéme' Jamme Founder and CEO, iamtheCODE Fran Katsoudas Executive Vice President and Chief People, Policy & Purpose Officer, Cisco Mike Mpanya Founder and CEO, Nubi AI William Ruto President of Kenya Reshma Saujani Founder and CEO, Moms First Sherrie Westin CEO, Sesame Workshop Richard Zelson CEO, MyStream

Our understanding of work is changing fast. Whereas once we could expect to work in the same employment or industry, our careers are now far more flexible. Automation, outsourcing, gender balance and the need to upskill all greatly impact our careers.

 

Industrialised societies are facing challenges unforeseen a generation ago. And while working hours become less predictable, productivity expectations keep increasing. So what lies ahead for Australian workplaces and workforces? And will we be able to retain a healthy work-life balance?
