Future Skills Centre at the OECD Webinar

Are foundation skills the building blocks for success in the AI era?

22 November 2024 13:00 CET

Artificial intelligence is reshaping jobs and automating more and more complex tasks. But are foundational skills like literacy, numeracy, and problem solving losing their relevance, or are they more critical than ever? How can they empower individuals to quickly adopt emerging technologies, adapt to new job demands, and innovate in ways that keep them ahead in an AI-driven world?

Join our webinar, in the lead up to the next round of results for the OECD Survey of Adult Skills in December, as we discuss with a panel of experts how these essential skills will continue to remain vital in navigating the rapidly evolving AI landscape and in future proofing careers.

Speakers include:

• Noel Baldwin, Interim executive director, Future Skills Centre 
• Dave Tout, Numeracy and mathematics education researcher and facilitator 
• Stijn Broecke, Senior Economist, OECD 

Moderated by Sasha Ramirez-Hughes, Communication Manager, Directorate for Education and Skills, OECD
