Why AI Apprenticeships matter
Artificial Intelligence is here to stay. It is already shaping the way we live and work, how organisations and industries operate. And its influence continues to grow, rapidly.
However, the AI skills gap is real and growing too. Many business leaders are struggling to find and attract AI talent that can manage their ever-growing, ever-evolving Artificial Intelligence solutions.
Employees meanwhile are already revelling in the ability to save time and streamline tasks and process thanks to the diversity and depth of Artificial Intelligence’s abilities.
Despite this, across industries there is a worrying trend of little to no formal AI training available.
Impellam Project Services’ AI Apprenticeships are designed to make a change; helping to close AI skill gaps, provide organisations with a pipeline of talent for the future, and develop people and their skills.
