Artificial intelligence is reshaping job expectations and the early career talent pipeline, often faster than learning and development teams can respond. D2L’s latest research examines a critical question for corporate L&D: How is AI transforming entry level roles, the skills employers now prioritize, and the pathways organizations rely on to develop future leaders—and are today’s learning models keeping up?

In this session we’ll explore new research on how AI is changing early career work, required capabilities, and competency development. Together, we’ll explore where traditional training pathways are no longer meeting business needs, where new opportunities for capability building are emerging, and what this means for strengthening your workforce pipeline. You’ll leave with actionable insights, recommendations, and ideas to modernize early career development in an AI-enabled workplace.

During this event, you will learn to:

• Identify how generative AI is redefining the scope and expectations of traditional entry‑level roles—and what this means for training models.
• Evaluate the emerging skill sets employers now prioritize for early‑career employees in an AI‑enabled workplace.
• Apply research findings to strengthen talent development strategies and redesign earlycareer pathways for the future workforce.
