About this Webinar:
As the pace of technological change accelerates, the federal workforce must be equipped with the agility to adapt. Cross-skilling, upskilling, and reskilling are no longer optional—they are essential strategies for mission readiness across cybersecurity, cloud management, data governance, and more. Emerging technologies like artificial intelligence illustrate the growing need for cross-domain expertise: cybersecurity professionals must address AI-driven threats, cloud architects must integrate AI tools for optimization, and data leaders must ensure information is AI-ready. But AI is just one example. Broader trends across technology demand a workforce that is flexible, resilient, and continuously evolving.
This webinar will bring together federal leaders to discuss practical strategies for building a dynamic, future-ready workforce—one that emphasizes continuous learning, cross-functional capabilities, and a culture of adaptability to meet current and future mission needs.
