Raising Gen Z: Education Needs to Change: By Matt Britton (keynote)

Education is totally in this country and the biggest reason why is that the people are teaching, are not in touch with where education is going. They are not teaching the real world skills that people need to know. And it's actually the opposite. Most people go to college because they think it's the right thing to do. And when they come out of college, they are in so much debt that they actually can't pursue the dreams that they want the pursuit to begin with. I think we're going to go back to a world where it's going to be much more skill and trade based, meaning you have to go deep into an art or deep into a science because anything else is going to be offshore or outsourced to Costa Rica or China or you name it, what's it. Going deep in an art, meeting, being smart, being creative, coming up with ideas that a machine can't do. Being deep into science is understanding how they use the machines. But if you want a career in middle management where you're going to work your way up the corporate ladder, you're going to find yourself in a really bad position very quickly.
