Redefining the Tech Hustle: AI, Personalized Careers, & the Future of Tech Education It's time to "redefine" the tech hustle this year. Let's face it, tech has changed. From AI to increased competition and from aggressive policy changes to an evolving corporate culture, there's great reason to have concerns. At the same time, there's lots to take advantage of and reason to be optimistic. AI can supercharge one's career journey, tech education is shifting from one-size-fits-all programs to personalized curriculums, and there is more community in tech than ever before. So, how can the next wave of tech professionals look to their career futures? We’ll unpack: 🔹 How AI is changing job searches, skill-building, and career trajectories 🔹 The future of tech education; degrees vs. programs vs. personalized learning 🔹 What hiring managers are really looking for in 2025 and beyond 🔹 How to navigate and personalize your own career journey in the age of AI Our amazing panelists are: ⚪️ Yustina Saleh Ph.D - Managing Director, Burning Glass Institute ⚪️ TeLisa Daughtry - Chief Innovation Officer, FLYX Labs ⚪️ Cristina Costa - Certified Career & Leadership Coach ⚪️ Jerlisa “Juju” Fontaine - Founder & CEO, HuCapital ⚪️ Jessica Sepulveda - Full Stack Software Engineer, Former Educator And because community is the best way to level up, we’re turning up the energy with a networking mixer right after; your chance to meet panelists, fellow attendees, and the folks who are shaping the future of tech. 🎵 Live DJs 🍸 A Full Bar 👋 Panelists & 100+ Attendees Full Schedule: ⚪ 6-615 PM - Welcome ⚪ 615-715 PM - Future of Tech Education Panel ⚪ 715-930 PM - Networking Mixer (w/ DJs, drinks, and dancing!)
