Join Dr. Justin Aglio (associate vice president for Penn State Outreach and executive director of the Readiness Institute) and Greg Blair (vice president of Julius Education) for a 45-minute strategic briefing on the emerging AI infrastructure workforce and how real-time labor market intelligence can help individuals, companies, and communities.
As artificial intelligence reshapes industries, the infrastructure powering it—like data centers, advanced manufacturing, semiconductors, and clean energy—is driving new workforce demand at an unprecedented pace.
Julius Education leverages AI and machine learning to provide industry-specific labor market insights at the job-title and skills level, offering a more precise view than traditional workforce data.
In this session, participants will:
- Explore live labor market data from the AI infrastructure dashboard
- Understand emerging skill demand tied to data centers and AI-enabled industries
- Examine how institutions and regional ecosystems can align talent pipelines to real-time industry needs
- Discuss implications for higher education, workforce boards, economic development leaders, and policymakers
Designed for leaders across industry, higher education, and the broader community, as well as faculty, staff, and students, this session explores how AI is reshaping workforce demand and how to proactively respond.
