This scenario is designed for adults who are upskilling to advance in their careers or transition to new roles. Using the AI4AL matching tool, educators help participants explore their current skills and uncover opportunities for further professional development that go beyond simple skills assessment and career identification. The training includes targeted activities such as interactive workshops, peer feedback sessions, and personal development planning. These activities help participants build long-term learning strategies and set growth milestones that align with their career aspirations.

AI4AL Matching Tool: To assess existing skills, recommend professional development pathways, and suggest relevant learning resources.
Learning Management System (LMS): For tracking participant progress and offering supplementary training modules.
Peer Collaboration Tools: Platforms for group discussions and feedback exchange.
Career Mapping Templates: Templates to help participants document their professional growth plans and milestones.
Participants begin by using the AI4AL matching tool to assess their current skills and identify new areas for development that could enhance their employability or enable a career shift. The tool offers insights into advanced learning areas such as leadership training, technical certifications, or cross-functional skills like project management and data analysis.
Following the skills assessment, educators conduct a workshop where participants draft personal development plans. These plans include learning goals, target deadlines, and strategies for achieving milestones. The workshop emphasizes aligning these plans with industry trends highlighted by the matching tool.
Educators then facilitate sessions where participants present their development plans and receive constructive feedback from peers. This collaborative process helps refine strategies and introduces diverse perspectives on career growth and learning approaches.
Using scenarios generated by the AI4AL matching tool, participants engage in simulations that require applying newly identified skills in real-world contexts. These include role-playing exercises where participants practice decision-making, project management, or customer interactions in simulated professional settings.
Participants gain an in-depth understanding of the skills needed for continuous career growth and develop personalized learning plans to follow after the course. By participating in peer discussions and practical simulations, they build confidence in their ability to adapt and advance in evolving job markets.
This learning scenario helps adults not only identify career paths but also establish a structured approach to lifelong learning. The use of peer support and practical exercises enhances motivation and ensures that participants are equipped with strategies to manage their professional growth autonomously.
