The World Economic Forum reports1 that due to technology advancements and automation over 54% of the workforce will require re-skilling in the next 5 years. With an already massive shortage of professionals with Robotic Process Automation (RPA) expertise, the UiPath Academic Alliance is on a mission to give college students and the colleges that teach them the opportunity to make automation & artificial intelligence (AI) a part of their applied-learning experience.

We introduce the UiPath Academic Alliance and its plans to provide academic institutions with free and turnkey curricula, software, expertise, and community support to teach RPA to the next generation of the global workforce.

You will learn about:

- The global reskilling challenge
- New opportunities for the global workforce
- What the UiPath Academic Alliance can do for your students
- How your institution can be at the forefront of the “automation first” era
