Employer council discusses impact of AI on tech roles

The Employer Champions Council is led by Accenture, Computing for All (CFA), and Business-Higher Education Forum (BHEF), focusing on aligning tech workforce development priorities and building a shared understanding of emerging technology to present a unified business voice to higher education institutions on critical educational programs and pathways for IT and CS.

This council was officially launched on June 20, at a roundtable event including executives from Amazon, F5, Google, Microsoft, Smartsheet, T-Mobile, and WA Roundtable, discussing the impact of AI on technology roles.
