Workforce, Education and Innovation 2024
Artificial intelligence and emerging technologies have enabled automation to rapidly expand, posing threats to traditional workforces, creating new jobs and recreating old ones. The success of Queensland’s future workforce relies on our ability to find innovative ways to meet the scale and breadth of emerging trends, navigating the demands of this rapidly changing economy.
The State’s leading educators discuss the future development of workforce education and preparedness across multiple current and emerging industries. Working closely with industry and the private sector, traditional educators address the growing demand for non-linear career and education paths, including strategies to align education and training supply to the corresponding demands of future and emerging workforces.
