Skills shortage, onboarding recruiting with artificial intelligence, metaverse, VR, AR – cyber security data protection for SMEs, skilled trades and the future of education and training
In times of a shortage of skilled labour and a difficult economic situation in which many companies are coming under increasing pressure, trainees are increasingly choosing companies that integrate modern technologies into their training. SMEs and craft businesses in particular must therefore invest in innovative solutions in order to remain competitive and attract urgently needed skilled labour. Our event provides a practical demonstration of how AI and extended reality (XR) can improve recruitment, onboarding, training and further education – with a focus on cybersecurity and data protection.
