Summary
Detroit Future City CEO Anika Goss joins me to dig into a recent report on career-connected learning and the future of work for young Detroiters. "Career-Connected Learning: Investing in Detroit's Future Talent," is grounded in the perspectives of almost 200 Detroit youth, along with input from parents, practitioners, employers, and policy makers around where things are working and where improvements need to be made in setting out future up for a bright tomorrow. We talk about which sectors are most likely to grow and survive automation, how tech and health care show up in kids' real aspirations, and why exposure and role models matter from grade school on. Anika gets into the regional picture across Wayne, Oakland and Macomb, the stigma around community college, and how employers and community colleges can help build a smarter pipeline from classroom to career. We also talk about AI — and being clear-eyed on what it will actually change, and why young people are already using it without the fear many adults have. If you care about Detroit's next generation and the jobs they'll hold, this one's for you. Full transcript on our website, Daily Detroit.
