Building a pipeline of state and local tech workers

More than 250 CEOs from companies across various sectors came together this week on a joint letter urging computer science and artificial intelligence to be made required parts of every school’s curriculum.

The CEOs, who represent tech giants like Microsoft, Dell, Salesforce and IBM, said in the letter that requiring computer science and AI education could unlock “$660 billion in economic potential every year for everyday Americans, and address the skills gap we currently face.”

“This is not just an educational issue; It’s about closing skills and income gaps that have persisted for generations,” they continued.
