Program Content

By looking at how jobs have changed from the past to the present and into the future, students learn that jobs do not simply disappear: they evolve and expand. They then apply the three principles of job creation (discovery, specialization and convergence) to come up with new job ideas, and use generative AI to define why each new job is needed and what it involves.

Understanding How Jobs Change

• Exploring changes in the world of work across the past, present and future
• Examining examples of jobs transformed by technological progress
• Learning why new jobs come into being

Hands-On Practice with the Three Principles of Job Creation

• Generating new job ideas through discovery, specialization and convergence
• Understanding how existing jobs connect with future technologies
• Developing job creation ideas based on problems in the local community and everyday life

Defining New Jobs with Generative AI

• Using AI to come up with job titles, roles and required skills
• Exploring personal or promising career paths through job creation
• Completing a presentation worksheet, including images

Deliverables

• Creating an introduction to a new job of their own
• Designing a WHY? HOW? WHAT? career roadmap
