VSAC Transition and Career Planning Conference

Advancing Possibilities: Engage. Adapt. Excel

The 21st Annual Transition and Career Planning Conference is hosted by VSAC’s Vermont State GEAR UP program in partnership with the Vermont Agency of Education, and sponsored by the J. Warren & Lois McClure Foundation.

Join school, agency, career, and post-secondary colleagues as we learn about and share our collective resources available to Vermonters.

This year’s conference will feature Brian Murphy as the keynote speaker. Brian’s keynote, Life with Machines: Adapting to Technological Change, will draw upon a range of works in the topic of AI’s role in today’s job market and higher education. “Whether we are technophiles, technophobes, or something in-between, we can draw upon the long-established tradition of wisdom stretching back to medieval times, when the Machine Age we currently find ourselves in first began. Since then, humans have grappled with mechanization and our relationship to machines, a story in which the advent of AI is merely the latest chapter.”
