Why is AI Skill Necessary for Okinawa's Construction Industry Now?

The average age of construction workers in Okinawa Prefecture is 56, the highest level nationwide, and over 50% of companies recognize "securing and developing young workers" as their biggest management challenge. With the overtime work regulations applied in April 2024, the traditional project management dependent on long working hours has reached its limit. Furthermore, with the completion of Shuri Castle's main hall in autumn 2026 and the full-scale launch of the National Resilience Plan, construction demand continues to expand. The utilization of AI is indispensable to cope with increasing work with limited personnel.

Not Just "Construction Plans." A Super Practical Program That Transforms Careers and Knowledge with AI.

In the 5th session, the curriculum has been significantly expanded to include not only the automatic creation of construction plans but also knowledge management utilizing Google's NotebookLM and career path design using the Will/Can/Should framework. The content allows participants to master "re-designing work styles based on AI" in two days, going beyond mere tool operation.

Thorough Guidance System by 3 Instructors
