Wednesday, October 8th | 12:00-1:00 PM EDT
What AI skills do employers actually want from new graduates? Join us as we go beyond the technical basics to explore the real-world competencies that drive hiring decisions today. Our expert panelists, Dean Merritt, Esq. from Mindgrub and Karolyn Babalola, PhD from Booz Allen Hamilton, will share insights on essential AI literacy, ethical considerations, and the gap between classroom learning and workplace application. Perfect for students preparing for the job market, educators designing curriculum, and career professionals staying ahead of industry trends.
Curious about how generative AI is reshaping higher education and preparing students for the future? Join the AI in Practice Webinar Series, a collaborative initiative among Johns Hopkins University’s CTEI, University of Baltimore’s CELTT, and University of Maryland, Baltimore County (UMBC). Engage with different industry thought leaders, university faculty and instructional-support staff the second Wednesday of each month at noon as we explore the evolving role of AI in teaching and the essential skills students need to thrive in an AI-enhanced workforce.
