Format: Short, high-energy inspiration talks (4–5 speakers, ~8–10 min each), presented by EdTech Denmark together with university researchers and business leaders

Audience: HR and L&D leaders, EdTech suppliers, university researchers, policymakers

Abstract: AI is changing what employees need to know — and leaders, not just learners or IT departments, are responsible for making sure their organisations keep up. In this session, EdTech Denmark sets a leadership agenda for workplace learning in the AI era: how to set direction for AI-supported upskilling, build a culture where people learn with AI rather than merely use it, and ensure AI strengthens human competence and an inclusive mindset rather than the illusion of it. Speakers — EdTech Denmark together with university researchers and business leaders — address what leaders should demand of AI learning tools on quality, data and pedagogy, and how to tell whether learning actually improves performance. This is the leadership brief that sets up the debate that follows.

Key takeaways: Leaders — not learners or IT — own the outcome: making sure AI-based upskilling builds real competence, not just the appearance of it. EdTech Denmark sets the leadership agenda: what to demand of AI learning tools on quality, data and pedagogy, and how to measure real performance gains.
