A state-supported apprenticeship program trains Howard County students in emerging tech and soft skills — and how to use them responsibility.
Young people like Tyese Johnson already know the risks of artificial intelligence. That's why the Oakland Mills High School senior joined a new apprenticeship program in Howard County that aims to teach responsible deployment of AI, alongside other tech and soft skills. “Being able to protect yourself from it, because you can understand what it does and what it’s there for,” Johnson said, “is very beneficial.” The nonprofit Health Tech Alley launched the initiative this year in collaboration with the state's Apprenticeship Maryland program and the Howard County School District. Take a look inside what its first students have learned — and what that could mean for the state's tech workforce. |
