Building AI-Durable Career Pathways: Lessons from Healthcare

As traditional entry-level pathways become less reliable and worker displacement accelerates, industries face a dual challenge: how to direct early talent into durable careers—and how to redirect displaced workers at scale. Healthcare, despite severe shortages, has emerged as a proving ground for how this can work. This session examines how leading workforce learning companies are collaborating with employers and policymakers to design visible, stackable pathways into AI-durable work—from early-career pipelines to reskilling and advancement. Panelists will unpack the credential structures, incentives, and partnerships making these transitions possible, and what other industries can learn about building talent systems that are resilient, navigable, and built for continuous mobility.
