In this episode, I had a fascinating chat with Hannah Grady Williams, the founder of d'Skills.
We explored the challenges of the traditional education system and how new technologies, particularly AI, can revolutionise learning and skill acquisition for young minds eager to make their mark in the world.
d’Skills is a 10-week virtual, cohort-based bootcamp where high schoolers learn new digital and AI skills and convert them into paid, real-world projects with small businesses.
TALKING POINTS:
- The problem with the current education system
- Alternative approaches, including more hands-on, creative models
- Why Gen Z looks at things differently and what they want from work
- Reimagining education and careers, focused on adaptability, creativity and critical thinking
- How d'Skills empowers high-schoolers to build Impact Portfolios
