GovCast: DOL Turns to Workforce Development to Maintain AI Superiority
Manage episode 489065626 series 2430691
Department of Labor’s Deputy Secretary Keith Sonderling outlines a comprehensive strategy to address the growing demand for AI skills in the American economy, during a live discussion at the AI+ Expo in Washington, D.C. earlier this month.
Sonderling explains the federal government's multi-pronged approach to AI literacy, focusing on early education initiatives that would integrate tech training from elementary through high school levels. He emphasizes the critical need to reimagine traditional career pathways, outlining how apprenticeship programs allow students to enter tech industries directly out of high school, bypassing conventional four-year degree routes.
Sonderling also discusses how public-private partnerships help create sustainable solutions for skill training and job placement. By addressing the current talent shortage and preparing a new generation of workers, DOL aims to position the nation as a global leader in AI innovation and technological advancement.
