2. What?

2.1. The TEDxUBC event is focusing on the challenges for both academia and industry to match skills needed in the fast-changing workplace with skills that are being taught. Difficult questions given that some of the jobs people are doing now are ones that didn't exist even a few years ago. As the new decade unfolds, how should secondary, post-secondary and lifelong learners be prepared for a world moving fast forward at breakneck speed? * For careers that do not yet exist? * For a business and technology industry in demand of new skills? * To support global literacy? * To further sustainability? * What is Learning 2.0 or 3.0 anyways?
