DETROIT - Jan. 21, 2016 - PRLog -- There are three million jobs in America today with many right here in Southeast Michigan. Yet many young people cannot find a job.

Employers are looking for employees who have skills to expand Automation - the process of computerizing job functions. Every industry is going through this process led by the Automotive industry. MIT Technology Review reports an Oxford research study that 45 percent of America’s occupations will be automated within the next 20 years.Computers will start replacing people in transportation/logistics, production labor, administrative support, services, sales, and construction.

Today, I viewed the Toyota Mirai with its Kymeta satellite system. Drivers will have access to 1 Terabyte of internet service to utilize for 3d mapping, videos, gaming etc. It expands the connected car concept to the nth degree. It also reinforces the need for computer programming classes in every middle and high school in Michigan, especially in inner cities where students are dying for a job.

The computer software industry is a 300 billion plus industry that employs millions of people in jobs such as computer programmers, computer systems analysts. The industry cannot find enough skilled individuals to employ.

Our nonprofit, Uplift, Inc. created Automation Workz to expose families to the enormity of the computer software industry and its impact on every facet of our economy.  Automation Workz is a live competitive scavenger hunt where families solve challenging missions.  It occurs 1/23/2016 1-5pm at the North American International Auto Show.  Our hope is that Automation Workz will inspire parents and students to matriculate to the industry as there are a plethora of high paying Automation jobs.
