The Philippine Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) is urging young Filipinos to embrace Artificial Intelligence (AI) and develop future-ready skills. This push comes alongside the DTI’s Jobs & Opportunities Fair, designed to bridge the gap between youth and employment. The fair aims to connect young people with a variety of opportunities in employment, entrepreneurship, and career advancement. A key component of this initiative is strengthening collaboration between educational institutions, employers, and innovators. According to DTI representative Ms. Swaniker, the fair provides a platform for these crucial connections. By focusing on future skills, the DTI hopes to prepare the Filipino workforce for the demands of an increasingly AI-driven job market and foster economic growth.
