Rethinking Education as We Live & Work Longer

Mar 7, 2019

11:00am – 12:00pm CT

The future of work is changing. As the skills needed for new jobs being created by new technology evolve, we're living longer and working longer. There are now more people in the U.S. over 50 than there are under 18. 63% of adults 60-64 still work, 40% of adults 65-69 still work. How do we tap into this talent pool and re-skill the greying workforce for the rapidly-changing nature of work for their benefit - how do we give them meaningful, purpose-driven jobs - and for the benefit of society?
