Hearing Recap: "Workforce Rewired: Modern Apprenticeships for a Modern Economy" - U.S. House Workforce Committee

Subcommittee Chairman Burgess Owens (R-UT) started the hearing by discussing how Artificial intelligence (AI) is reshaping the skills needed to be successful in nearly every sector of the economy. “Researchers estimate that 40 percent of the skills required for today’s jobs will change over the next decade. That reality presents a challenge not only for workers, but also for employers who need talent that’s able to adapt to changing business needs... In today's economy, workers increasingly need opportunities to upskill, reskill, and acquire new competencies as they work. The rapid adoption of artificial intelligence is only making that need clearer,” he said.
