The fastest-growing firms today are not waiting for the future. They are already using artificial intelligence (AI) to make better decisions, move faster, cut costs, and find new openings. AI is helping teams work smarter, respond quickly to market changes, and improve how they serve clients.
This should make us ask a serious question: how are we preparing young learners, especially STEM students in high schools, to use AI before they enter the job market? If these learners are future engineers, scientists, health workers, data analysts, innovators, and business leaders, then AI readiness must become part of their training today.
Kenya has long supported the UN and AU goals of industrial growth through STEM. The country has also set a target of having 60 percent of learners in senior school go through the pathway. This aim is reflected in the Competency Based Education model, where STEM is one of the three specialised pathways, and the only one that every senior school is expected to offer.
