SUMMARY:i4 Series: AI\, Education\, & SC Workforce
DESCRIPTION:Google’s 7-state AI education lead joins us in Greenville for a panel on closing the gap between what schools teach & tomorrow’s workforce \n\n\n\n\nA recent survey found only 14% of college graduates say they’ve reached proficiency applying AI tools in a professional setting. \nSouth Carolina isn’t standing still. The Governor’s School for Science and Mathematics\, backed by a multi-year Google investment\, is training teachers statewide\, running an AI Educator Program\, and building curriculum for K-12 classrooms in 27 counties. \nDemand is climbing fast in tech. Outside of it\, most employers are still deciding what AI skills are worth hiring for\, or whether they need them at all. \nThe harder question is what comes next. If AI is absorbing entry-level work\, the training ladder most organizations relied on doesn’t work the same anymore. The path from repetitive tasks to judgment calls to leadership is compressing. Professional services\, manufacturing\, insurance\, technology\, same problem\, and a few organizations are already rebuilding that path deliberately. \nSo what are we preparing students for\, and what will employers be asking for by the time they graduate? \nPanelists Include: \nLilyn Hester | Regional Lead\, Community and Workforce Development\, Google\nSpearheading Google’s regional AI education across seven states. Partners directly with local school districts and institutions like GSSM to fund digital literacy\, bring cross-state insights to local leaders\, and drive workforce readiness. \nDanny Dorsel | President\, SC Governor’s School for Science and Mathematics\nBuilding the infrastructure for AI education across South Carolina\, from training the state’s first cohort of AI Faculty Fellows to putting curriculum and professional development into the hands of K-12 teachers in 27 counties. \nPaula Fulghum | Founder & President\, InnovateHR\nSitting inside hiring across dozens of small and mid-size businesses in 38 states\, she sees what employers are putting on job descriptions long before it shows up in national survey data\, and where AI skills are showing up in hiring conversations. \nModerated by:\nDoug Kim\, IP Attorney & Founder\, Kim\, Lahey & Killough Law Firm.

SUMMARY:Fix My Pitch Kickoff Event
DESCRIPTION:Great companies don’t always have great pitches.And that’s not a failure. It’s a skills gap. \nPitching is a craft. It can be learned\, refined\, and rebuilt.

You’ll meet other founders\, designers\, storytellers\, and strategists\, and learn how the Fix My Pitch program works. \nWhether your pitch needs a second draft or you’re someone who loves helping ideas come to life through storytelling and design\, this night is about connection\, collaboration\, and making strong ideas easier to understand.

SUMMARY:Learn to Code with AI and Sports
DESCRIPTION:If you love sports and want to learn how coding works in the real world\, this class is the perfect place to start. You’ll learn Python by analyzing the statistics of your favorite sport\, whether that’s football\, basketball\, baseball\, volleyball\, tennis\, or anything else you follow. Each week you’ll write simple programs that turn real data into charts\, comparisons\, and insights\, giving you a fun and practical introduction to programming and data analytics. \nThe class is designed for high school students but is open to anyone ages 13 and up\, including adults who want a more engaging way to learn to code. No previous experience is needed\, and students only need a laptop (Mac or PC). \nHomeschool students who take this class along with Learn to Code with AI and Entertainment\, in addition to either Build Your First App or Build Your First Game\, can count the combination as a full credit of high school computer science. A syllabus is available for that purpose; contact us to request a copy before the class begins.

SUMMARY:Build Your First Game Class
DESCRIPTION:Step inside the world of game development and create something of your own. In this beginner-friendly class\, you’ll learn the basics of Unreal Engine\, the same tool used to build many of today’s top games. Each session mixes guided lessons with time to experiment\, so you’ll finish with a small playable game and a big sense of accomplishment. \nThe class is designed for high school students\, but it’s open to anyone ages 13 and up\, including adults who are curious to try game development for the first time. No prior experience is required\, but students will need to bring a laptop capable of running Unreal Engine (Mac or PC). You can check the system requirements and download Unreal Engine here. \nHomeschool students who take this class along with Build Your First App can count the combination as a full credit of high school computer science.

SUMMARY:Build Your First App Class
DESCRIPTION:Learn how modern apps come to life by building your own from the ground up. This beginner-friendly class introduces rapid prototyping with v0 and Cursor\, two powerful AI-assisted tools that make it easier than ever to turn an idea into a working application. Each session blends short lessons with hands-on creation so you can design a user interface\, generate the code behind it\, and see your app run by the end of class. \nThe class is designed for high school students but is open to anyone ages 13 and up\, including adults who want to explore app development in a more creative and accessible way. No prior experience is required\, but students will need to bring a laptop (Mac or PC). \nHomeschool students who take this class along with either Build Your First Game can count the combination as a full credit of high school computer science.
