The Oxford Round Table Symposium

on the

Aligning Education with the Future Workforce

​

As the global workforce undergoes rapid transformation driven by technology, innovation, and evolving social needs, the role of education must adapt to prepare learners for success in an unpredictable future. This Symposium brings together educators, policymakers, industry leaders, and researchers to explore how schools, colleges, and training institutions can align learning pathways with real-world demands. Topics will include future-ready skills, the integration of emerging technologies, career and technical education, equity in workforce preparation, and the role of leadership in shaping responsive and resilient educational systems.

​

​​Participants will have the opportunity to present research papers, case studies, and initiatives, while also enjoying dialogue with colleagues from diverse cultural and professional backgrounds. Throughout the event, attendees will experience the distinctive academic life of Oxford — from dining in historic college halls to engaging in sessions held within centuries-old seminar rooms — enriching their professional development within an inspiring setting.

​

Join us as we examine strategies to ensure that today’s learners are equipped not only to enter the workforce

—but to lead it.
