AI4CAREER invites researchers, educators, designers, and policymakers to explore how AI is shaping STEM career development across K–16 education. As AI becomes embedded in advising and career exploration systems, the workshop examines how to design and govern these technologies responsibly—ensuring they support learner agency and do not reinforce inequities. Participants will engage in lightning talks and interactive discussions to identify key challenges, design principles, and research priorities. We welcome short papers or motivation statements from those interested in advancing equitable, developmentally grounded AI for career pathways at scale.
