ABSTRACT Artificial intelligence has been an eye-popping word that is impacting every industry in the world. With the rise of such advanced technology, there will be always a question regarding its impact on our social life, environment and economy thus impacting all efforts exerted towards continuous development. From the definition, the welfare of human beings is the core of continuous development. Continuous development is useful only when ordinary people’s lives are improved whether in health, education, employment, environment, equality or justice. Securing decent jobs is a key enabler to promote the components of continuous development, economic growth, social welfare and environmental sustainability. The human resources are the precious resource for nations. The high unemployment and underemployment rates especially in youth is a great threat affecting the continuous economic development of many countries and is influenced by investment in education, and quality of living. KEYWORDS Artificial Intelligence, Conceptual Blueprint, Continuous Development, Human Resources, Learning and Employability Blueprint. 1. INTRODUCTION Continuous development is defined as the development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs [1]. The primary cause of the high unemployment rates is the inefficient education systems that fail to equip young people with the required skills for the labour market. In this research, we propose the use of artificial intelligence to enhance the relationship between education and employment. Many studies were published on how to improve education curricula to enhance the employability of students; frameworks were designed to facilitate the work of teachers, mentors, career advisers and faculty to guide students through their career exploration and preparation. Numerous papers were published on the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on education and its impact on employment. However it seems there is a gap in connecting the three important areas of research, 1: education for employment, 2: AI in education and, 3: AI in employment [2]. Further investigations are needed to evaluate and assess how AI can fit in the current learning and employability blueprint and to evaluate what can innovation and entrepreneurship bring to promote better education for employment systems. 2.
