00:00It all starts with education.
00:02Are the current analogue ways we are teaching students
00:05quickly becoming irrelevant in a digital world?
00:08That's definitely one question.
00:09But also, can current employees keep up with the evolving skill set
00:13demanded by the modern workforce?
00:15Well, we're going to look into a pivotal moment in education.
00:21A unique moment for the global workforce.
00:23Most current employees were educated and trained for an analogue world,
00:28but all incoming graduates know only digital.
00:31There are fears that this situation raises invisible barriers
00:34between generations at work,
00:36as well as raising issues like potential skill gaps.
00:39The accelerating rate of technological innovation
00:41further complicates the situation.
00:43Old methods of training and in-work education
00:46need to be completely reimagined.
00:49The World Economic Forum says 65% of children now entering primary school
00:54will go on to work in jobs that don't yet exist.
00:56How can students be prepared for such uncertainty?
01:00The answer could come from companies providing more involvement
01:03at school level or even new ways of learning.
01:06Ecole 42 in France says that modern education
01:10needs to reflect our digital reality.
01:12By having a pedagogy that's based on peer-to-peer,
01:15they're not just learning the tech skills,
01:18but they're also learning the soft skills,
01:20or what we like to call the human skills.
01:21So we're going beyond low-value skills like memorization,
01:25calculation, and they're learning critical thinking,
01:28how to analyze information, how to seek information,
01:31how to use that information to come up with creative solutions.
01:34New ways of hybrid working in the so-called Great Resignation
01:37may have been the most discussed impacts of the COVID-19 global pandemic,
01:42but education is also undergoing a revolution.
01:44In the U.S., only 51% of Generation Z students,
01:49those born between roughly 1997 and 2013,
01:52said in 2022 they had plans to attend higher education.
01:56In 2020, that figure was closer to 71%.
02:00Education worldwide needs to change
02:04because the world is changing at an unprecedented rate.
02:06This has been happening for the last several years,
02:11but the situation has been radically accelerated by generative AI.
02:17Learners need flexible, affordable, agile paths to upskill and reskill,
02:22and we know this is not only a nice-to-have, this is an imperative.
02:27Just one of the many indications that established ideas
02:31around training and education will need to be rethought
02:34as younger generations increasingly turn away from traditional career pathways.
02:40And from quiet quitting to remote working,
02:43well, actually, we're working on the threshold of a revolution.
02:46What kind of challenges are HR directors facing in 2023?
