At the WGU School of Business, academic leaders saw the importance of experiential learning in preparing students for the future of work through Introduction to Business Accounting, a required course for non-accounting majors. With a focus on teaching students in the way they learn best, the school set out to redesign the course around engagement, relevance, and real-world application.
We spend a considerable amount of time worrying about the future of work, whether it’s AI stealing our jobs or preparing for roles that don't yet exist. However, while we debate what might happen years from now, we overlook a challenge that's already present: the growing disconnect between what people are learning and what employers need today.
