Durable Skills are Crucial in the Workplace | WorkingNation Overheard | JFF Horizons

Описание: Durable skills or soft skills are not new, but are important for the future of work as repetitive tasks are taken care of by AI, says Terrence Cummings, chief opportunity officer at Guild – which “helps employers provide tuition-free education, skilling, and career mobility to their workforce.”

WorkingNation sat down with Cummings at JFF Horizons 2024 in Washington, D.C.

He says, “AI is something that's going to change every job. It's going to influence – at a minimum – every job. I use AI on a daily basis.”

Regarding upskilling in the workplace, Cummings says, “Employers know that they need those skills. Where the conversation sits is – when do we do it and how do we do the skilling?”
