Webinar: Building blocks of workforce preparedness and employability

Learn why flexible, accessible, transferable and relevant continued learning and skill development are crucial to improving hiring initiatives.
The higher education landscape is changing fast, but has AI been net positive for students? What do university leaders see as some of the key opportunities with AI?
Businesses across the world are eager to adopt AI across the organisation, while also striving to become increasingly more efficient, effective and sustainable. Ready to learn how AI can be used in helping businesses become more sustainable?
AI is changing the skills we need to learn and how we learn, but not always in the way we expect! At edX we’re hearing that too much choice is overwhelming, with leaders more focused on quality than quantity when it comes to learning. Because of this, learners need and expect more direction. Finally, despite all the innovation, our research suggests that humans still want to learn from and with humans. 
In the midst of The Great Resignation and widening skill gaps, the war for talent in 2022 is real. As companies struggle to recruit job-ready employees with the required technical skills, they are being forced to rethink and streamline their hiring initiatives to ensure they get ahead in the race for top talent. But how are organizations working to bridge these rapidly expanding skill gaps and build a diverse, job ready, talent pipeline at scale? Join this conversation that will delve into what today’s learning leaders are doing to solve these challenges and future-proof their workforce.
As the pace of business disruption increases, the talent landscape continues to change. Not only are organizations struggling to retain valuable employees during the great resignation, but they are also facing a growing skills gap that threatens their ability to remain competitive in a world where the skills of today aren’t the same as those needed for tomorrow.
With increasing change and business disruption, the skills of today aren’t the ones that will be in demand tomorrow. So how do you build a future-ready workforce?
Learn why flexible, accessible, transferable and relevant continued learning and skill development are crucial to improving hiring initiatives.
Online programs are an essential part of the learning landscape today. But university students, digital natives, seasoned professionals and highly-motivated learners can still struggle -- they may not remember what they read, become easily distracted or just give up. Download this webinar with Dr. Barbara Oakley—instructor of some of the most popular online courses of all time—and her co-instructor, educational coach Olav Schewe, as they discuss their new course on edX: Learn Like A Pro. This course weaves late-breaking insights from neuroscience into Barb and Olav’s previous research and teaching to show unexpected, yet practical, new approaches your learners need to know to learn like a pro. 
The rapid pace of innovation requires organizations to constantly assess critical business skills and help their employees develop them. Companies that proactively manage upskilling and reskilling are more likely to be high performers than those that do not.  And while many talent leaders are focused on building critical skills and competencies in their organizations, many still struggle with how to get started.
