Alumni Professional Development Webinar Program

FUTURE SKILL IN THE AGE OF AI

It has been said, “AI might not replace you, but a person using AI could,” (Fortune Magazine, April 25, 2023). Some people may feel threatened by the accelerating pace of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in our society, while others find it curious – or even exhilarating. What a perfect time to join an inviting space to explore both AI realities and possibilities.

Drawing on current published literature and our own ideation, we will deep dive into the skills needed to thrive in this new age. Some will come from ancient wisdom (mindfulness), others will require a reframe (critical thinking and problem-solving), and a few will require our super-power meta-skills (embracing a growth mindset).

This is an exciting time for all students, where technology and human-centric skills suggest the increased value of a liberal arts education. How will you help foster these future skills in the age of AI? REGISTER FOR FREE TODAY!
