More than 100 countries (per Brookings), and thousands of schools worldwide require the teaching of Competencies, often known as “21st Century Skills,” “4C’s,” “Social-Emotional Learning (SEL),” “Portrait of a Graduate,” or “Learner Profile.”

These Competencies, however, are not deliberately, systematically, comprehensively, or demonstrably embedded into classroom instruction.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) only complicates the conversation. Are the Competencies helped or hindered by AI? If so, which ones and how? Sitting at the intersection of the education and AI worlds, this Summit will discuss and explore concrete, research-backed ideas for educators and schools.

ACE Summit Themes:

AI’s Role in Transforming Our World

Addresses how AI is influencing education, and what this means for the future of learning.

Integrating Critical Competencies in Curriculum Design

Focused on the approaches to embedding 21st Century Competencies into educational frameworks.

Assessment Strategies

Methods and tools for effectively measuring and assessing the Competencies needed for an age of AI: Skills, Character, & Metalearning

From Theory to Practice

Innovators who have been leading the implementation of 21st Century Competency infused curricula for years.

Organized by 2 Partners in Innovation

Aims to increase job & life readiness of students by evaluating and developing their 21st Century Competencies online

Aims to make education more relevant through deep, synthesized, and applied research and educational product development

Beyond Education is co-hosting the first annual international AI & Competencies in Education (ACE) Summit in partnership with the Center for Curriculum Redesign (CCR). The goal is to refocus education on a holistic approach to youth development that is critically needed in the current and future age of AI. 

The 2024 edition of this summit analyzes the consequences of AI’s rapid advancements on learning, employability, life, and the value of modern knowledge. ACE deep dives into clarifying the value of 21st Century Competencies, augmented and supported by AI.

We are very excited to present, as speakers, renowned thought leaders, and doers at the intersection of education and AI. They will provoke reflections and offer practical recommendations for the future of education. 

Date: 5 • December • 2024

Location: the Learning Planet Institute (LPI), 8 bis Rue Charles V, 75004 Paris
