Webinar | Developing Vocational Education and Training with Artificial Intelligence 23 June 2026
In this webinar, experts discussed the new OECD report Developing VET with AI and take a closer look at how AI is impacting traditionally lengthy and resource-intensive processes such as curriculum design, qualification development and occupational standards setting.
We looked at how AI is being used in VET development, from analysing labour market trends and mapping competencies to drafting curricula and conducting compliance checks. Then speakers shared practical examples and discussed the opportunities, risks and policy considerations of using AI to support VET systems.
Speakers included:
-Boeun Park, Manager, Occupational Competency Development Department, Human Resources Development Service of Korea (HRDK)
-Jan Varchola, Team Leader, Directorate-General for Employment, Social Affairs & Inclusion (DG EMPL) at the European Commission
-Harmony Kwawu, University and College Union Branch Chair and Digital and Information Technology Lecturer at Waltham Forest College, United Kingdom
-Bas Smit, Product owner for the Generative AI platform “eduGenAI” at the Pilot Hub Study Data and AI within Npuls
-El Iza Mohamedou, Head of OECD Centre for Skills
