Today’s headlines may question the value of a liberal arts education, but the reality? That tells a different story. Employers are actively seeking humanities graduates for their critical thinking, information literacy, and communication skills—qualities that fuel innovation in a fast-changing workplace.

In this webinar, you’ll hear how faculty and librarians are turning humanities education into a powerful competitive advantage. You’ll discover practical ways to integrate high-demand skills without sacrificing the depth and richness that make the humanities indispensable, including:

  • Strategies to help students build highly transferable skills—communication, teamwork, and critical thinking—while boosting their career prospects
  • Approaches to embed three key career competencies—data literacy, critical thinking, and information/AI fluency—directly into your curriculum
  • Insights on faculty–librarian partnerships that enhance high-demand skills and prepare students for success beyond graduation
