The Advancing AI Jobs, Skills, and Pathways Workshop is a three-part virtual series organized through the NSF-supported Research Coordination Network on Assessing and Predicting Job Outcomes in AI (RCN APJO-AI).

The workshops bring together voices from industry, academia, government, and workforce organizations to explore how artificial intelligence is reshaping jobs, workforce skills, and education pathways.

Insights from these discussions will contribute to national conversations on AI workforce development, talent pathways, and regional innovation ecosystems.
