💼 >$100B Spent on Training in the US

US training expenditure grew from $56B in 2012 to $102B in 2022. This rise aligns with government goals like the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act, which enhances employment services and sectoral partnerships. Initiatives like Pell Grants support vocational training, fostering a skilled workforce crucial for economic competitiveness. Despite the pandemic, investments rebounded strongly in 2021-2022.

Canada's medical graduates per 100,000 inhabitants declined from 7.11 in 1980 to 4.92 in 2002. Expanded medical school capacity and workforce strategies reversed this trend, reaching 7.48 by 2021. Initiatives like the Future of Medical Education in Canada and provincial workforce strategies have sustained growth, addressing healthcare demands through modernized curricula and strategic planning.

English-taught AI programs tripled from 0.88K in 2017 to 2.52K in 2023, driven by global demand for skilled professionals and frameworks like the EU AI Act and $140M from the US National AI Research Institute. UNESCO’s AI MOOCs and Hong Kong’s curriculum reforms align education with ethical standards. Future growth will focus on healthcare, sustainability, and equity through collaborations like the ITU AI for Good Summit, emphasizing STEM diversity and inclusive access to meet evolving technological needs.
