Skilled Trades, AI Demand, and the Workforce Crisis Hiding in Plain Sight
About this episode
Brian Huff discusses the importance of skilled trades in the context of AI demand and the workforce crisis.
Billions of dollars in AI investment are reshaping the American economy, and the workers who will physically build that future aren't coming out of four-year universities. They're being trained at career schools like Midwest Technical Institute , where Founder and CEO Brian Huff has spent decades preparing skilled tradespeople for the jobs that keep the country running. But cultural bias against the trades is holding back the pipeline of talent America urgently needs. Huff joins host Jason Altmire to make the case that hands-on careers deserve the same respect as traditional degrees and explains what higher ed leaders can do right now to change that.
