Hire or Reskill? The Skills Health & Life Sciences Employers Want in the AI Era

AI is transforming healthcare, research, and biomedical organizations faster than many teams can hire for it. So who should employers hire, and who should they reskill?

In this interactive Tech Week event, the audience becomes the hiring panel. You'll review realistic candidate profiles and vote live: hire or reskill. Industry leaders then explain how they would make the same decision, revealing the skills, gaps, and judgment calls that shape hiring in the AI era.

After the discussion, explore a showcase of AI-in-healthcare projects developed by GVSU students, including clinical data tools, predictive models, and biomedical research applications. Outstanding projects may earn professional recognition from industry panelists and program leaders.

Whether you're a student, educator, clinician, hiring manager, researcher, or simply curious about AI's impact on the workforce, you'll leave with a clearer understanding of the skills that matter most and where the future of talent is headed.
