Shannon Coan at The Chattanooga Times Free Press reports Chattanooga’s Apprenticeship Opportunity Hub will use Artificial Intelligence (AI) to help employers find overlooked talent for its work-based Talent Development Programs. The customized AI agent, named Celeste, aims to make the recruiting process interactive and easier for employers, said Walton Robinson, the Executive Director of the Hamilton County-Chattanooga Apprenticeship Hub. The Hub wants the AI to be available to potential Apprentices to help them identify what job they want to do and what skills they have already that can transfer to a new career path, he said. Over the past several years, the Chattanooga area has worked to expand its Apprenticeship offerings. In 2022, Chattanooga was selected as one of five communities in the Nation to serve as an Apprentice Innovation District. Since then, more than 50 Registered Apprenticeship Programs have been created with local employers.
