About the Webinar
AI is changing what employers expect from new graduates, placing a greater premium on human judgment, adaptability, and problem-solving. But as technology makes it easier to find answers, are students missing opportunities to develop those very skills?

Join EAB's Carla Hickman and Tara Zirkel for a special virtual encore of the keynote address from CONNECTED26, EAB’s student success and strategy conference.

Featuring EAB's latest research on workforce readiness and what it means for the future of student success, this session will introduce the concept of productive friction, and explore how colleges and universities can rethink the student journey to:
  • Build workforce-ready skills through meaningful challenge and real-world learning
  • Identify gaps in student success practices and opportunities to better prepare students for life after graduation
  • Remove unproductive friction that causes students to lose momentum at key points in their college career
