The future of software development starts here.
At WTWC, we are building WA AI-ready workforce — together.
AI is redefining the software developer’s role — from writing code to reasoning with systems that can code for themselves. Across Washington, employers, educators, and developers are joining forces to ensure our workforce stays ahead of the curve.
What We've Built
How The Employer
Signaling System
Works
It's a feedback loop designed to keep WA's tech workforce agile, inclusive, and future-proof.
Employers signal evolving AI skill needs.
WTWC analyzes and shares insights across education and workforce partners.
Educators update curricula, and job seekers upskill accordingly.
Employers gain access to pre-qualified, AI-ready developers.
Why Should You Care
→ A clear roadmap to upskill and evolve from traditional to AI-enabled roles.
→ A shared framework to assess AI-readiness, design reskilling programs, and hire confidently.
→ A blueprint to create applied AI curricula aligned with real-world roles and employer demand.
The Challenge
We're Solving
Washington's tech economy is among the strongest in the nation — yet the AI skills gap is widening.
74% of employers report difficulty hiring AI-literate developers.
Entry-level software roles are shifting toward AI-assisted productivity.
Most training programs haven't yet caught up to the new reality of AI-augmented engineering.
Our Employer Signaling System changes that — aligning skill data, training pathways, and hiring pipelines across the state.
Test out the Developer Skill Map and Employer Signaling System.
Help shape the standards, pilot the data, and prepare your organization — or your career — for what's next.
